Endometriosis is characterized by progressive fibrosis and limited therapeutic options. Cuproptosis, a copper-dependent form of regulated cell death, has been implicated in multiple pathological conditions, but its relevance to fibroblast-m…

BACKGROUND: Adenomyosis (AM) is a common gynecological disorder in reproductive-age women, with impaired endometrial receptivity as a key contributor to infertility. However, a comprehensive single-cell atlas of the eutopic endometrium duri…

Defective endometrial decidualization is one major cause of female infertility, yet the underlying mechanisms remain elusive. Here, we identified that protein arginine methyltransferase 5 (PRMT5), which was upregulated during decidualizatio…

BACKGROUND: The clinical efficacy of antioxidants in assisted reproductive technology (ART) remains inconsistent. This systematic review and meta-analysis aimed to evaluate the impact of oral antioxidant supplementation on reproductive outc…

BACKGROUND: The incidence of malignant tumors/precancerous lesions is rising, yet their impact on pregnancy outcomes in women undergoing in vitro fertilization/intracytoplasmic sperm injection (IVF/ICSI) remains unclear. METHODS: A single-…

PurposeAcute pancreatitis (AP) is an inflammatory disorder with rising global incidence. Substantial progress in elucidating AP pathophysiology has been achieved over the past two decades. This study aims to assess the evolution of AP patho…

BACKGROUND: Protein palmitoylation is a significant post-translational modification that influences protein stability, localization, and signaling through the addition of palmitoyl groups to cysteine, serine/threonine, or lysine residues. I…

OBJECTIVE: To compare dietary preparation durations and evaluate optimal diet types before high-intensity focused ultrasound (HIFU) treatment. MATERIALS AND METHODS: Five hundred patients with uterine fibroids or adenomyosis undergoing HIF…

Filamentous fungi exhibit high heavy metal resistance; elucidating their resistance mechanisms is of practical importance for fungal utilization and for engineering other microorganisms. However, the molecular basis of copper tolerance in f…

BACKGROUND: To analyze trends in surgical approach stratified by Body Mass Index (BMI) among women undergoing hysterectomy for benign indications in the United States and to compare clinical outcomes in morbidly obese patients (BMI > 40 kg/…

Transient receptor potential vanilloid subtype 1 (TRPV1), a polymodally activated, calcium-permeable non-selective cation channel, is broadly present in all parts of the body, with notable expression in the nociceptive neurons. Both physiol…

BACKGROUND: Current research primarily concentrates on acute and chronic postpartum pain, while sub-acute pain after childbirth (SAPC) remains a significant but often under-recognized health concern. We determined if pain and psychological …

STUDY OBJECTIVE: To evaluate the effects of a 3-stage treatment strategy featured by cold-knife adenomyomectomy, enhanced endometrial protection and postoperative uterine monitoring for severe diffuse adenomyosis on IVF/ICSI and perinatal o…

ObjectiveTo evaluate whether vitamin D supplementation improves live birth rates in women with polycystic ovary syndrome undergoing in vitro fertilisation.DesignMulticentre, double blind, placebo controlled, randomised clinical trial.Settin…

BACKGROUND: Traditional research on the female reproductive tract (FRT) microbiome has focused on the dominance of bacteria, particularly Lactobacillus, as a marker of health. This bacteriocentric paradigm, however, cannot fully explain cli…

BACKGROUND: Immature teratoma is a malignant tumor and accounts for 1%-3% of ovary teratoma. The objective of this study was to find the potential single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs), copy number variations (CNVs) and drug targets in the…

BACKGROUND: Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) mainly develops in cases of fibrosis and cirrhosis and is accompanied by intestinal flora disorder. HCC also affects CD8+ T cell immune function. 5,7-Dimethoxyflavone (DMF), an active flavonoid wit…

Introduction Uterine rupture (UR) during pregnancy refers to a disruption of the uterine wall involving the myometrium and serosa that occurs in association with pregnancy. The global incidence of UR is rising, and this condition can lead t…

Dichloroacetate (DCA), as a pan-inhibitor of pyruvate dehydrogenase kinase, plays a crucial role in energy metabolism and mitochondrial function. DCA decreases lactic acid synthesis, enhances mitochondrial oxidative phosphorylation, and reg…

PURPOSE: The application of narrow-band imaging for missed early miscarriage treatment remains unclear. This study determined the application advantages of NBI combined with hysteroscopic 7Fr cold knife embryo removal for treating missed ea…

BACKGROUND: This study aims to investigate the efficacy and safety of dexmedetomidine in treating postoperative acute pain through a clinical randomized controlled trial. METHODS: This study selected 165 patients who underwent general anes…

INTRODUCTION: The burden of gynaecological diseases is increasing globally, affecting women's health, quality of life and fertility. Improving the quality of gynaecological care will enhance patient recovery and improve outcomes of gynaecol…

BACKGROUND: While metabolic syndrome and obesity are established risk factors for infertility, previous studies have neglected age-specific analyses and nonlinear associations, particularly in women aged 20-45 years, a critical demographic …

BACKGROUND: Organochlorine pesticides (OCPs) are extensively dispersed throughout the environment, which potentially have harmful impacts on the female reproductive system. Therefore, the purpose of this study was to clarify the association…
