BACKGROUND: Ovarian clear cell carcinoma (OCCC), well known for its chemoresistance to platinum-based chemotherapy, exhibited a good response in clinical trials of anti-PD-1/PD-L1 inhibitors. By assessing PD-L1 expression, we sought to dete…
AIMS: Current evidence suggests that there is no completely effective method for endometriosis (EMS) without trauma due to diverse adverse effects. Reliable evidence illustrates that inhibiting ferroptosis is a potential strategy for EMS. W…
All types of ginger have common fundamental components, although they possess distinct strengths and inclinations when it comes to effectiveness and medicinal applications. Fresh ginger possesses the ability to effectively stimulate movemen…
BACKGROUND: To explore the incidence of chronic endometritis (CE) in patients with infertility and different forms of adenomyosis and analyze potential high-risk factors for infection. METHODS: This retrospective cohort study included 154 …
Regulated cell death (RCD) represents a distinct mode of cell demise, differing from accidental cell death (ACD), characterized by specific signaling cascades orchestrated by diverse biomolecules. The regular process of cell death plays a c…
BACKGROUND: Endometriosis is an estrogen-dependent gynecological endocrine condition and a systemic inflammatory disease associated to improper lipid metabolism and increased cardiovascular risk. The Cardiometabolic Index (CMI) is a novel i…
BACKGROUND: Ureteral strictures (US) could lead to impaired kidney function, which was alleviated by ureteral reconstruction surgery. However, solitary kidney (SK) patients with US were more complicated to treat. This study aimed to evaluat…
Rhein is a natural active ingredient in traditional Chinese medicine that has attracted much attention due to its wide range of pharmacological activities. However, its clinical application is limited by low water solubility, poor oral abso…
BACKGROUND: Pain is a major challenge in performing ultrasound-guided percutaneous microwave ablation (PMWA) of uterine myomas. Inadequate analgesia by local anesthetics hinders the possibility of conducting PMWA of uterine myomas in the Am…
BACKGROUND: Placenta accreta spectrum disorders (PAS) are a severe complication characterized by abnormal trophoblast invasion into the myometrium. The underlying mechanisms of PAS involve a complex interplay of various cell types and molec…
PURPOSE: To investigate the follicle microenvironments of women with premature ovarian insufficiency (POI), with normal ovarian reserve function, and who are older (age >40 years) and to identify potential therapeutic targets. PATIENTS AND…
BACKGROUND: Plasma microRNAs act as biomarkers for predicting and diagnosing diseases. Reliable non-invasive biomarkers for biochemical pregnancy loss have not been established. We aim to analyze the dynamic microRNA profiles during the per…
This study aimed to explore the relationship between female age and pregnancy outcomes in patients undergoing their first elective single embryo transfer (eSET) of in vitro fertilization (IVF) cycles. The retrospective cohort study encompas…
BACKGROUND: Serum tumor markers (STM), extensively used for the diagnosis, monitoring and prognostic assessment of tumors, can be increased in some non-malignant lung diseases. To date, there is a paucity of studies regarding the clinical c…
Macroautophagy, commonly referred to as autophagy, is an essential cytoprotective mechanism that plays a significant role in cellular homeostasis. It has emerged as a promising target for drug development aimed at treating various cancers a…
Endometriosis (EMS) is defined as the appearance, growth, infiltration, and repeated bleeding of endometrioid tissue (glands and stroma) outside the uterus cavity, which can form nodules and masses. Endometriosis is a chronic inflammatory e…

Millions of women worldwide are infertile due to gynecological disorders, including premature ovarian insufficiency, polycystic ovary syndrome, Asherman syndrome, endometrial atrophy, and fallopian tube obstruction. These conditions frequen…
Inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) comprises Crohn's disease (CD) and ulcerative colitis (UC), both characterized by chronic intestinal inflammation and an elevated risk of colorectal cancer due to persistent inflammation. The Regenerating ge…
BACKGROUND: Among the POSEIDON criteria, group 3 and group 4 have an expected low prognosis. For those patients with inadequate ovary reserve, embryo accumulated from consecutive oocyte retrieval cycles for multiple frozen-thawed embryo tra…
Wilms tumor (WT) is the most common type of malignant abdominal tumor in children; it exhibits a high degree of malignancy, grow rapidly, and is prone to metastasis. This study aimed to construct a prognosis model based on anoikis-related g…
PURPOSE: With urbanization and industrialization process accelerated, humans are exposed more and more trace elements. This study aimed to explore the potential associations of trace elements with the outcomes of in vitro fertilization embr…
N6-methyladenosine (m6A) methylation is the most prevalent internal epigenetic posttranscriptional mechanism for regulating mammalian RNA. Despite recent advances in determining the biological functions of m6A methylation, its association w…
PurposeTo investigate underlying co-mechanisms of PCOS and periodontitis through transcriptomic approach.MethodsPCOS and periodontitis gene expression data were downloaded from the GEO database to identify differentially expressed genes. GO…
BACKGROUND: Transumbilical laparoendoscopic single-site surgery (TU-LESS) has gained increasing attention due to the potential to maximize the benefits of laparoscopic surgery. This study aimed to compare outcomes of TU-LESS and multiport l…
