PurposeTo explore the impact of inactivated COVID-19 vaccination on ovarian reserve as assessed by serum anti-Müllerian hormone (AMH) concentration.MethodsA total of 3160 women were included in this single-center retrospective cohort study …

Ovarian cancer (OC) is one of the most lethal malignancies of the female reproductive system. OC patients are usually diagnosed at advanced stages due to the lack of early diagnosis. The standard treatment for OC includes a combination of d…

OBJECTIVE: To assess the perioperative outcomes of vNOTES tubal surgeries and to identify predictors of surgical conversion. METHODS: A single-center retrospective cohort study was performed on 619 patients who underwent vNOTES tubal surge…

BackgroundTo date, there is no consensus on whether intrauterine insemination (IUI) treatment is required in young patients with diminished ovarian reserve (DOR). Pregnancy outcomes in young DOR patients undergoing IUI are controversial. Th…

Objective: This study aimed to explore the prevalence and associated factors of medication adherence among infertile women undergoing frozen-thawed embryo transfer (FET) cycle. Methods: A cross-sectional study was conducted with 556 inferti…

IntroductionAlthough previous studies have shown that vaginal natural orifice transluminal endoscopic surgery (vNOTES) has the advantages of causing less pain, faster recovery, and better concealment of surgical incisions, which aligns with…

OBJECTIVES: Transvaginal ultrasound- and laparoscopy-guided percutaneous microwave ablation (TLPMA) is a minimally invasive alternative technique with low risk, fast recovery and few side effects. We aimed to evaluate the safety and long-te…

PURPOSE: Adenomyosis is a common gynecological disease, but its pathogenesis and treatment options are not yet completely clear. This study aimed to investigate the analgesic effect of berberine on tamoxifen-induced neonatal mouse adenomyos…

BackgroundUnsubstantiated concerns have been raised on the potential correlation between severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) vaccination and infertility, leading to vaccine hesitancy in reproductive-aged population.…

Aim: Diminished ovarian reserve can be characterized by poor response to ovulation and low number of eggs. The risk factors include endometriosis, receiving cancer treatment, luteal phase deficiency and gynecologic surgery. Uterine fibroids…

ObjectiveTo investigate the learning curve of transvaginal natural orifice transluminal endoscopic hysterectomy (tVNOTEH) when using a standard operating procedure (SOP).MethodsSeventy-nine patients were treated with tVNOTEH by a single sur…

Network Meta-analysis was performed to systematically compare the efficacy of different Chinese patent medicines for activating blood and resolving stasis in the treatment of endometriosis and to provide evidence-based references for clinic…

IntroductionAs a new minimally invasive surgery, transvaginal natural orifice transluminal endoscopic surgery (vNOTES) has been proved to be suitable for the treatment of a variety of gynecological benign diseases. However, compared with ot…

ObjectivesTo evaluate the usefulness of Contrast-enhanced ultrasound (CEUS) in the diagnosis and differential diagnosis of Polypoid lesions of gallbladder (PLGs) ≥ 1 cm.MethodsA prospective analysis was performed on 180 patients with PLGs ≥…

BACKGROUND: Chronic pelvic pain (CPP) is one of the common sequela of pelvic inflammatory disease, the pathological factors are adhesions, scarring and pelvic congestion which caused by inflammation, often cause abdominal pain and lumbosacr…

IntroductionNatural orifice transluminal endoscopic surgery (NOTES) is a new concept of minimally invasive surgery. It could prevent complications related to the trocar in laparoscopic surgery, and help achieve ideal cosmetic outcomes.AimTo…

BackgroundIt has been consistently shown in several meta-analyses that infants born after ART have an excess of birth defects compared with those after spontaneous conception, however, the prevalence of birth defects among ART offspring in …

Emerging evidence suggests that children conceived through assisted reproductive technology (ART) have a higher risk of congenital heart defects (CHDs) even when there is no family history. De novo mutation (DNM) is a well-known cause of sp…

OBJECTIVE: To evaluate the effect of transvaginal ultrasound-guided aspiration and ethanol sclerotherapy on anti-müllerian hormone (AMH) in patients with ovarian endometriomas. SETTING: Teaching hospital affiliated with Chang Gung Universit…

RationaleIntravenous leiomyomatosis (IVL) is a rare and special type of smooth muscle tumor originating in the uterus. It is classified as a benign disease according to its histological features but shows the behavioral characteristics of a…

Protocols utilizing gonadotropin-releasing hormone (GnRH) antagonists have emerged as mainstream procedures for ovarian stimulation; however, GnRH increases the risk for periodic cancellation of embryos. Therefore, this study aimed to compa…

Objective: CA125/MUC16 is an O-glycosylated protein that is expressed on the surfaces of ovarian epithelial cells. This molecule is a widely used tumor-associated marker for diagnosis of ovarian cancer. Recently, CA125 was shown to be invol…

BackgroundInflammasome-mediated neuroinflammation plays an important role in the pathogenesis of early brain injury (EBI) following subarachnoid hemorrhage (SAH). The activation of the TGR5 receptor has been shown to be neuroprotective in a…

AIM: Androgens have been reported to be associated with female fertility. The mean serum testosterone concentration in the patients with endometriosis was reported to be significantly lower than that without endometriosis. Our study was des…

Studies have reported that non-receptive endometrium or abnormal decidualization was closely related to recurrent implantation failure (RIF). MLL1 is a histone H3 lysine 4 trimethylation (H3K4me3) transferase that regulates the transcriptio…
