BackgroundRepeated implantation failure (RIF) remains a significant challenge in assisted reproductive technology. Endometrial receptivity (ER) plays a critical role in embryo implantation. However, the impact of advanced maternal age (AMA)…
Primary aldosteronism (PA) is associated with a substantially higher cardiovascular risk than essential hypertension, a disparity that cannot be fully explained by blood pressure elevation alone. Clinical studies consistently demonstrate th…
This study aimed to develop and validate a clinical prediction model for the success of the focused ultrasound ablation system (FUAS) in treating adenomyosis. A retrospective analysis was conducted on 250 patients from Qingdao Women and Chi…
BACKGROUND Postoperative sleep disturbances are common after gynecological laparoscopic surgery, possibly delaying recovery. This study evaluated whether additional postoperative administration of dexmedetomidine hydrochloride nasal spray c…
Diminished ovarian reserve (DOR) is associated with poor reproductive outcomes; however, the underlying molecular mechanisms-particularly those involving the regulation of granulosa cell (GC) function by exosomal microRNAs (miRNAs) derived …
BACKGROUND: Endometriosis is a chronic inflammatory disorder that significantly compromises women's health, typically manifesting as pelvic pain and/or infertility. This condition imposes a substantial burden on global healthcare systems. …
BACKGROUND: Endometrial cancer (EC) is one of the most common malignant tumors in women, and in recent years, the role of gut microbiota in tumorigenesis has gradually gained attention. Previous studies have shown that the gut microbiome is…
IntroductionPoor ovarian response (POR) remains a major obstacle in assisted reproductive technology, yet the follicular microenvironmental determinants of impaired ovarian sensitivity are poorly understood. This study aimed to characterize…
Urological malignancies represent a group of highly aggressive tumors with a strong tendency toward therapy resistance. Their pathogenesis is closely associated with metabolic reprogramming and epigenetic regulation. In recent years, lactyl…
Ovarian senescence is accompanied by inflammatory responses, yet the underlying mechanism remains incompletely elucidated. In this study, transcriptome sequencing was performed on ovarian granulosa cells from advanced-age patients and norma…
BACKGROUND: Deep infiltrating endometriosis (DIE) is a highly fibrotic and deeply invasive subtype of endometriosis that causes severe pelvic pain, infertility and marked impairment of quality of life. Metabolic, microbial and immune distur…
BackgroundIntracytoplasmic sperm injection (ICSI) is performed in over half of assisted reproductive technology cycles globally; however, the optimal interval between oocyte denudation and sperm injection remains undefined in clinical guide…
BackgroundNeuromuscular blocking agents (NMBAs) facilitate tracheal intubation and laparoscopic exposure, but residual neuromuscular blockade remains a perioperative concern. We evaluated whether reducing NMBA exposure during total laparosc…
BackgroundThe increasing global incidence of endometrial cancer (EC) underscores the urgent need for effective early detection. Noninvasive detection approaches, such as transvaginal ultrasonography (TVS), frequently exhibit low specificity…
ObjectivesAcute pancreatitis, recurrent acute pancreatitis, and chronic pancreatitis are recognized as a continuum of pancreatic diseases. Recurrence increases the risk of progression to chronic pancreatitis. The aim of this study was to se…
BackgroundWe aimed to explore the association between daily sitting time and breast cancer in obese women, and further examine the mitigating role of physical activity in this relationship.Materials and methodsA secondary analysis of cross-…
Small cell neuroendocrine carcinoma of the cervix (SCNEC) is a rare and highly aggressive malignancy with a poor prognosis. We report the case of a 36-year-old nulliparous woman with a history of HPV-18 infection and repeated cytology showi…
ObjectivesThe combined technology of laparoscopy, choledochoscope and gastroscope was used in the treatment of gallbladder stones combined with common bile duct stones, which consists of laparoscopic cholecystectomy (LC), laparoscopic commo…
Neutrophils are key immune components in rheumatoid arthritis (RA), but the role of ALKBH5 in neutrophil function and RA progression remains unclear. METTL3, METTL14, WTAP, ALKBH5, FTO, YTHDF2, autophagy related gene were investigated by RT…
Endometriosis, a persistent inflammatory disease, is associated with pelvic or abdominal pain. The immune system and sensory nervous system show a synergistic effect on regulation of pain. In particular, Interleukin-33 (IL-33) is released a…
BackgroundZona pellucida (ZP) plays an important role in oocyte development and fertilisation, as well as in early embryo development. However, there is currently no exploration of systematic categorising and clinical treatment measures for…
Ovarian cancer (OC) remains one of the most lethal gynecological malignancies, largely due to its late-stage diagnosis and high recurrence rates. Chronic inflammation is a critical driver of OC progression, contributing to immune evasion, t…
BACKGROUND: Endometriosis, affecting 10-15% of women, causes pain and infertility. Current treatments have limitations. This study aimed to investigate patients' knowledge, attitude, and practice (KAP) concerning endometriosis and its long-…
BackgroundPrevious studies have identified that exposure to heavy metals increases the prevalence of congenital heart defects (CHDs); however, limited information exists regarding the association between combined exposure to barium (Ba) and…
IntroductionEmerging evidence indicates that dysregulated palmitic acid (PA) homeostasis plays a key role in inducing lipotoxicity and cellular dysfunction in mammalian endometrial epithelial cells. While this phenomenon has been documented…
