AIMS: This study aims to develop and validate a Multi-Dimensional Computational Screening (MDCS) strategy to identify bioactive components by jointly considering target affinity, exposure potential, and safety, using Liangdi decoction (LDD)…
BACKGROUND: With the increasing use of assisted reproductive technology (ART), more women with endometriosis are achieving pregnancy through ART. However, the impact of endometriosis on pregnancy and perinatal outcomes following ART remains…
BackgroundProlonged menstrual cycles may indicate potential cardiometabolic conditions; however, there are limited data on how these associations vary among women without polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) undergoing in vitro fertilization (I…
BackgroundOvarian clear cell carcinoma (OCCC) is a rare aggressive, and chemo-resistant subtype of epithelial ovarian cancer. Current limitations in precisely characterizing its molecular features have resulted in restricted availability of…
BackgroundPelvic floor myofascial pain (PFMP) is an important yet often overlooked cause of chronic pelvic pain (CPP). The currently available diagnostic methods are limited due to issues such as insufficient efficacy and difficulties in pr…
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…
BACKGROUND: Endometriosis (EMS) is a chronic inflammatory disorder involving ectopic endometrial tissue growth. This study investigated IL-33, CD1c+ dendritic cells (DCs) and their co-stimulatory molecules (CD40, CD80, CD86), and IL-17 A in…
ObjectiveThe Progestin-Primed Ovarian Stimulation (PPOS) protocol with a freeze-all strategy is increasingly used for diminished ovarian reserve (DOR) patients. While growth hormone (GH) and Kuntai capsule are proposed adjuvants, their effi…
BACKGROUND: Device expulsion is a common complication of the levonorgestrel-releasing intrauterine system (LNG-IUS), with a higher incidence among high-risk patients presenting with enlarged uterine cavities, cervical laxity or menorrhagia.…
BACKGROUND: Endometriosis (EMs) is a prevalent gynecological disorder among women of reproductive age. HAGLR has recently been identified as a potential factor in EMs, but its functional role and underlying mechanisms remain unclear. METHOD…
Hydrogels, characterized by their porous network structures and microenvironment-responsive properties, have been widely explored for tumor embolization. Physically or dynamically crosslinked hydrogels-such as ionic, hydrogen-bonded, or sup…
BackgroundThe optimal luteinizing hormone (LH) concentration on the day of hCG trigger during long-protocol IVF/ICSI remains uncertain. Although some studies associate profound LH suppression with impaired reproductive outcomes, others repo…
This study aimed to enhance preoperative diagnostic accuracy for early ovarian cancer (EOC) by constructing and validating an interpretable predictive model integrating serological markers with O-RADS ultrasound risk stratification. A total…
Hypoxia stress seriously affects the survival of aquatic animals. However, little is known about the regulation mechanism under hypoxia stress; hence, it is important to fully clarify this regulation to improve the hypoxia tolerance of aqua…
Blood-based liquid biopsies hold transformative potential for non-invasive cancer management, but current approaches relying on rare circulating tumor components limit their broad clinical utility. Platelets, abundant in blood and mediating…
Endometrial polyps (EPs) are common uterine lesions associated with abnormal uterine bleeding and infertility, yet their pathogenesis remains poorly defined. Here, we performed single-cell RNA sequencing of normal endometrium, para-polyp, a…
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…
Endometriosis (EM) is a prevalent gynecological disorder linked to pelvic pain, menstrual disturbances, and infertility. Despite its clinical burden, the molecular mechanisms underlying EM remain elusive, necessitating the discovery of nove…
ObjectiveThe ovary, as an important reproductive organ, tightly regulates the litter size of rabbits through its complex network of genes. This study aims to identify candidate genes related to litter size in rabbits through RNA sequencing …
IntroductionSevere trauma and hemorrhage in rats lead to changes in the beta diversity of the commensal bacteria found in the gut. Because short-chain fatty acids (SCFA) are produced by these bacteria, SCFA concentration may also change fol…
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…
Objective: To investigate the association between hysterectomy and accelerated aging, with a focus on the mediating effect of renal function and protective role of dietary fiber intake. Methods: The cross-sectional study utilized data from …
BackgroundMatrix remodeling-associated 7 (MXRA7) plays a key role in physiological and pathological processes involving the extracellular matrix (ECM) and tissue remodeling. Recent studies have highlighted its functions in tissue injury, im…
BackgroundAs the precursor malignancy of endometrial cancer (EC), about 50% of endometrial complex atypical hyperplasia (CAH) will eventually progress to EC. Elucidating the underlying transformation mechanisms could aid in disease manageme…
BackgroundPreimplantation embryos in vivo are exposed to various growth factors in the female reproductive tract that are absent in in vitro embryo culture media. Cell-free fat extract exerts antioxidant, anti-ageing, and ovarian function-p…
