BackgroundUterine adenosarcoma is a rare malignant tumor characterized by a biphasic pattern consisting of benign epithelial components and sarcomatous stroma. The subtype with sarcomatous overgrowth is more aggressive and poses significant…

Background: Polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) is characterized by substantial inter-individual variability in ovarian sensitivity to recombinant follicle-stimulating hormone (rFSH) during controlled ovarian stimulation (COS). Clinically appl…

BackgroundLeukocytospermia (LCS) is commonly identified during male infertility evaluation and is associated with impaired semen quality. However, the specific roles of various inflammatory conditions in LCS remain incompletely understood.M…

BackgroundAtrial fibrillation (AF) and ovarian cancer are leading causes of morbidity, with emerging evidence suggesting potential interplay. However, their temporal and genetic relationships remain unclear.MethodsWe analyzed 265,248 women …

Precise regulation of alternative splicing (AS) of maternal mRNAs is crucial for maintaining mRNA homeostasis and for acquiring oocyte competence. However, the regulatory factors and mechanisms of AS regulating oocyte competence and human f…

OBJECTIVE: To assess the pre-treatment severity of adenomyosis and compare the effectiveness of the levonorgestrel-releasing intrauterine system (LNG-IUS) with that of dienogest (DNG) over various follow-up periods. DATA SOURCES: We used a…

This study utilized the Surveillance, Epidemiology, and End Results (SEER) database to identify clinicopathological prognostic factors and develop a prognostic nomogram for predicting 1-, 3-, and 5-year overall survival (OS) in patients wit…

Acute pancreatitis (AP) is a common, potentially severe inflammatory disease of the pancreas. Although environmental triggers such as alcohol and gallstones are well known, only a subset of exposed individuals develop AP, suggesting that ge…

ObjectiveThis study aimed to evaluate factors associated with the clinical pregnancy rate in women with diminished ovarian reserve (DOR) undergoing repeated assisted reproductive technology (ART) cycles.MethodsA retrospective analysis was c…

IntroductionEpithelial ovarian cancer (EOC) remains the most lethal gynecological malignancy, and accurate prediction of long-term survival remains challenging. This study aimed to evaluate the prognostic associations of prespecified clinic…

Evidence remains unknown regarding the associations between PM2.5 and its components exposure and dynamic progression of different assisted reproductive outcomes in participants undergoing fresh embryo transfer. We included infertile partic…

BackgroundSingle-port robotic cholecystectomy offers minimally invasive benefits. This trial evaluated the feasibility and safety of a novel system, MicroPort SA-1000.MethodsIn this dual centre, single-arm, prospective study, eligible patie…

Endometriosis (EMs) affects the physical and mental health of a wide range of women of childbearing age. Exploring specific diagnostic targets and screening potential therapeutic drugs will help early diagnosis and improve prognosis. The di…

Endometriosis is a common gynecological disease with high recurrence rates after surgery and the lesions keep unlimited proliferative capacity. The effect of garcinol on cell proliferation has not been investigated in endometriosis. Herein,…

Oocyte/embryo defects can result in oocyte maturation arrest, fertilization failure, embryonic arrest, and infertility as well as recurrent in vitro fertilization (IVF) or intracytoplasmic sperm injection (ICSI) failures. However, the genet…

ImportanceTonsillectomy has long been scrutinized for its potential long-term impacts on health, with conflicting evidence linking it to increased risks of several diseases, such as cancer, psychiatric disorders, and immune dysfunctions.Obj…

OBJECTIVES: Adenomyosis severely impairs fertility and quality of life. This study investigated the pathophysiologic role of cell division cycle 42 (CDC42) in adenomyosis by profiling its expression, identifying its binding partners, and pe…

OBJECTIVE: To perform a preliminary, hypothesis-generating evaluation of the association between intraovarian injection of platelet-rich plasma (PRP) combined with peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs) and ovarian response parameters i…

ObjectiveTo study whether the impact of serum progesterone level on the day of hCG administration on reproductive outcomes varies across age groups and ovarian stimulation protocols in fresh in fresh in vitro fertilization (IVF) and intracy…

The increasing prevalence of obesity, diabetes, and other metabolic disorders is driving the application of sucralose in the food industry. However, its direct effects on the reproductive function have not been sufficiently investigated. Ch…

Polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) is a common reproductive and metabolic disorder with a complex and yet unresolved etiology. Although ovulation induction therapy can improve ovulatory function, the natural pregnancy rate and pregnancy outco…

Comprehensive magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) analysis in oncology involves multiple interrelated tasks including volumetric segmentation, grading, staging, and malignancy detection. However, most existing deep learning models are task-spe…

BackgroundCervical clear cell adenocarcinoma (CCAC) and cervical endometrioid adenocarcinoma (CEAC) are rare and aggressive non-HPV-associated malignancies. Despite their histological similarities, these subtypes demonstrate distinct biolog…

The B‑cell translocation gene 2 (BTG2), originally identified as a tumor suppressor, has been extensively studied in oncology research. However, its multifaceted functions in non‑tumor diseases are still being recognized but not entirely un…
