OBJECTIVE: To compare the effectiveness and safety of different acupuncture-related therapies combined with pharmacotherapies for treating symptomatic endometriosis. METHODS: A pre-defined search strategy was conducted across eight databas…

BACKGROUND: Infertility represents a prevalent condition affecting the reproductive system. It has a global incidence of approximately 17.5%. Nutritional supplements are increasingly used as complementary therapy for female infertility, tho…

BACKGROUND: Endometriosis (EM) is a chronic gynecological disorder that affects 5% to 10% of women of childbearing age, often causing pelvic pain and infertility. Fibrosis is a hallmark of EM progression, yet its underlying molecular driver…

Recent advances in understanding the modulatory functions of gut and gut microbiota on human diseases facilitated our focused attention on the contribution of the gut to the pathophysiological alterations of many extraintestinal organs, inc…

Current interventions for endometriosis mainly involve hormone therapies but have limited efficacy and unacceptable side effects due to the lack of selectivity to distinguish between endometriosis and endometrial tissues. Elucidating the mo…

Endometriosis markedly compromises female fertility, and although endometrial dysfunction likely plays a role in this pathology, its precise mechanistic contributions remain poorly understood. This study aims to investigate the decidualizat…

ObjectiveTo explore the influencing factors of polyspermy in long-term fertilization during in vitro fertilization (IVF) with antagonist protocol.MethodsThis was a retrospective case-control study. Patients with secondary infertility underg…

Endometriosis (EMs) and recurrent miscarriage (RM) represent major reproductive health challenges. This study investigates the involvement of endothelial-mesenchymal transition (EndMT) in these conditions through integrative bioinformatics …

Endometriosis (EMs) is a common gynecological disorder. According to the most widely recognized theory of retrograde menstruation, endometrial cells require completion of three key steps during ectopic implantation: adhesion, invasion, and …

Oocyte aging is closely related to a decline in female fertility, accompanied by increased reactive oxygen species levels and changes in protein posttranslational modifications. However, the role of protein palmitoylation in oocyte aging ha…

Rationale: Endometriosis, characterized by the presence of ectopic endometrial-like tissue, is a common chronic inflammatory disorder in gynecology. However, current treatments, including surgery and hormone therapy, often yield suboptimal …

Neutrophils are important components of the immune system and play a key role in defending against pathogenic infections and responding to inflammatory cues, including cancer. Their dysregulation indicates potential disease risk factors. Ho…

ETHNOPHARMACOLOGICAL RELEVANCE: Guizhi Fuling Wan (GZFLW), a canonical herbal formulation originating from Synopsis of the Golden Chamber, has been widely utilized in managing pain-associated disorders. While its therapeutic efficacy in ade…

Innate lymphoid cells (ILCs) are a newly discovered subset of immune cells that are responsible for regulation of the immune microenvironment. In particular, the ILC categories ILC2s and regulatory ILCs (ILCregs) are associated with immunos…

BACKGROUND: Endometriosis (EMs) and adenomyosis (AD) are prevalent gynecological disorders with overlapping symptoms but potentially distinct pathophysiology. This study was to understand different gene expression patterns of eutopic endome…

Simulation approach involves the use of computers and mathematical models to simulate real systems for experimentation or tests that evaluate the behavior and performance of a system or predict the results of various hypothetical scenarios.…

Polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) has a negative effect on the receptivity of the endometrium to embryo implantation and increases the risk of miscarriage and endometrial cancer. The cellular and molecular heterogeneity of the endometrium in…

Abstract Adenomyosis is a prevalent and non-cancerous uterine disease which can significantly impaired the fertility of reproductive-age women. However, the etiology, as well as the cellular and molecular mechanism underlying adenomyosis re…

INTRODUCTION: Adenomyosis is a prevalent gynaecological disorder affecting women of reproductive age, yet the underlying etiology and cellular-molecular mechanisms driving its pathogenesis remain poorly understood. Gonadotropin-releasing ho…

Endometriosis is a prevalent chronic gynecological disease that poses significant challenges for treatment due to its extensive lesions, diverse morphology, unknown etiology, and tendency for recurrence. In the early 21st century, the stem …

Reproductive longevity is essential for female fertility and healthy aging; however, the role of stress response, especially stress granule accumulation, in ovarian aging remains elusive and interventions are lacking. Here, we identified de…

The human microbiome, particularly the gut and reproductive tract microbiota, plays a critical role in regulating fertility through complex molecular and immunological mechanisms. This review synthesizes emerging evidence on the bidirection…

BACKGROUND: The link between programmed cell death (PCD) and mitochondria has been documented in various diseases. However, its role in endometriosis (EMS) remains unexplored. This study aims to identify potential biomarkers in EMS associat…

BackgroundTo validate previous age subgrouping methods and provide an optimal age reference for women planning to delay in vitro fertilization (IVF).MethodsFrom July 2014 to March 2018, 3012 patients that received IVF/intracytoplasmic sperm…
