OBJECTIVES: Although in vitro fertilization with embryo transfer is the most effective treatment for infertile patients with endometriosis, ovarian stimulation protocols are controversial. STUDY DESIGN: We recruited 639 patients with endom…
This study was carried out to elucidate the biological function of HOTAIR in granulosa cells of endometriosis and the underlying mechanism. Granulosa cells were extracted from endometriosis patients and subjects with fallopian tube factor a…
Intrauterine adhesions (IUA), which is characterized by endometrial fibrosis, continue to be the most common cause of uterine infertility globally. Our work revealed that 3 fibrotic progression markers (Vimentin, COL5A2, and COL1A1) were si…
BackgroundLiterature regarding the advantages of gasless vNOTES is insufficient. The aim of our study is to compare gasless vNOTES vs. traditional vNOTES on hemodynamic profiles and outcomes in patients with benign gynecological disease. We…
Endometriosis is initiated by the movement of endometrial cells in the uterus to the fallopian tubes, the ovaries and the peritoneal cavity after the shedding of the uterus lining. To cause endometriosis, it is often necessary for these end…
Endometriosis is characterized by the presence of endometrial tissue outside the uterus that not only causes severe pelvic pain and infertility but also increased risk for ovarian carcinogenesis in women of reproductive age. Here, we found …
Throughout the menstrual cycle, spontaneous mild contractions in the inner layer of the uterine smooth muscle cause uterine peristalsis, which plays a critical role in normal menstruation and fertility. Disruptions in peristalsis patterns m…
Signal transducer and activator of transcription 3 (STAT3), when phosphorylated at tyrosine 705, plays an important role in endometrial stromal cell decidualization and the receptivity of the endometrial epithelium during embryo implantatio…
Endometriosis (EM) is a prevalent and debilitating gynecological disorder primarily affecting women of reproductive age. The diagnosis of EM is historically hampered by delays, owing to the absence of reliable diagnostic and monitoring tech…
Study objectiveTo describe the surgical technique and compare the operative outcomes of gasless and traditional robot-assisted transvaginal natural orifice transluminal endoscopic surgery (GR-vNOTES vs. TR-vNOTES) in hysterectomy.MethodsThe…
OBJECTIVE: This study aimed to explore the optimal time of laparoscopic cystectomy for unilateral ovarian endometrioma patients and evaluate the influence on ovarian reserve. MATERIALS AND METHODS: This prospective randomized controlled st…
OBJECTIVE: This study aimed to identify the risk factors for subchorionic hematoma (SCH) in the first trimester of in vitro fertilization (IVF) twin pregnancies and investigate the impact of SCH on pregnancy outcomes. STUDY DESIGN: A prosp…
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…
BackgroundThe disease burden and incidence of placenta accreta are increasing worldwide. The morbidity and mortality associated with undiagnosed placenta accreta are both high, highlighting the important of early diagnosis and intervention.…
ObjectiveThis study aimed to develop multiphase big-data-based prediction models of ovarian hyperstimulation syndrome (OHSS) and a smartphone app for risk calculation and patients' self-monitoring.MethodsMultiphase prediction models were de…
Objective: Pelvic organ prolapse (POP) affects a large proportion of adult women, but the pathogenesis of POP remains unclear. The increase in global population aging will impose a substantial medical burden. Herein, we aimed to explore the…
BackgroundVaccine hesitancy was found in couples seeking artificial reproductive technology (ART) services. As the main vaccine used in China, investigations into the influence of inactivated coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) vaccines on …
Endometriosis, a chronic disorder characterised by the presence of endometrial-like tissue outside the uterus, is associated with iron overload and oxidative stress in the lesion. Although it is well established that iron overload can trigg…
Study questionDo inactivated coronavirus disease-2019 (COVID-19) vaccines affect IVF outcomes among the vaccine recipients?Summary answerThe receipt of inactivated COVID-19 vaccines before ovarian stimulation has little effect on the outcom…
Study questionDoes inoculation with inactivated vaccines against coronavirus disease 2019 (Covid-19) before frozen-thawed embryo transfer (FET) affect live birth and neonatal outcomes?Summary answerInactivated Covid-19 vaccines did not unde…
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…
Endometriosis is an estrogen-dependent chronic gynecological syndrome. Recent studies have shown that long non-coding RNAs participate in the pathogenesis and development of endometriosis. This study aimed to explore the mechanisms of DHRS4…
Background: Emerging data suggest a significant association between migraine and endometriosis, however the relationship between migraine and endometriosis severity or adenomyosis is unclear. Our objectives were to explore the relationship …
