Nanomaterials are increasingly applied in biomedicine and have significant potential in reproductive medicine. However, because they can impact germ cells, use of nanomaterials could represent a "double-edged sword", whose benefits must be …

The vaginal microbiota is critical for reproductive health, and its disruption, particularly the loss of Lactobacillus spp. and dominance of anaerobes such as Mobiluncus mulieris (community state type IV, CST IV), is associated with bacteri…

INTRODUCTION: Metabolic syndrome is a serious public health concern across the globe. However, the typical metabolites and mechanisms underlying the decreased fertility related to metabolic syndrome is still elusive. OBJECTIVES: The aim of…

OBJECTIVE: To assess the ovarian reserve and in vitro fertilization/intracytoplasmic sperm injection (IVF/ICSI) outcomes after various laparoscopic approaches in infertile patients with endometriomas and suspected compromised ovarian reserv…

PURPOSE: To evaluate the effectiveness and safety of the novel protocol-progestin-primed ovarian stimulation (PPOS) protocol during controlled ovarian hyperstimulation (COH), in patients undergoing in vitro fertilization/intracytopalsmic sp…

BACKGROUND: Different types of adenomyosis have distinct impacts on various pregnancy outcomes. The influence of diffuse and focal adenomyosis on adverse pregnancy outcomes remains controversial. OBJECTIVE: To examine the effects of diffus…

Ovulatory dysfunction (OD) is one of the main causes of infertility in women of childbearing age, which not only affects their reproductive ability, but also physical and mental health. Traditional treatment strategies have limited efficaci…

RATIONALE: Hyperreactio luteinalis (HL) involving a unilateral ovary is extremely rare, and the clinical presentation of HL can mimic that of ovarian malignancy, resulting in potential misdiagnosis and unnecessary surgical interventions. P…

Endometriosis has been reported in epidemiological studies to be associated with certain types of cancer. However, the presence of reverse causality and residual confounding due to common risk factors introduces uncertainty regarding the ex…

BACKGROUND: Endometriosis is an underdiagnosed disorder that affects an estimated 6-10% of women of reproductive age. Endometriosis has been reported in epidemiological studies to be associated with autoimmune diseases. However, the relatio…

BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES: Infertility is a pressing public health concern on a national scale and has been linked to inflammatory conditions. However, limited research has been conducted on the impact of the Dietary Inflammatory Index (DII…

OBJECTIVE: To compare the safety and effectiveness between long-term GnRH agonist plus HCG (dual trigger) and HCG trigger alone in high ovarian responders. METHODS: A retrospective study was conducted on clinical data from 314 cases of hig…

Copper is an indispensable micronutrient for the development and replication of all eukaryotes, and its redox properties are both harmful and beneficial to cells. An imbalance in copper homeostasis is thought to be involved in carcinogenesi…

The immune system contributes to the pathophysiology of endometriosis. The role of ThGM cells, which produce granulocyte macrophage-colony-stimulating factor (GM-CSF), in the pathogenesis of endometriosis remains unknown. To analyze the fea…

BACKGROUND: To evaluate the dynamically impact of the coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) on the female reproductive system. METHODS: An online survey was shared to women of reproductive age who had been infected with COVID-19 and recovere…

OBJECTIVE: To study biomarkers to develop a novel diagnosis model for endometriosis and validate it using clinical samples. DESIGN: We used publicly available data sets and weighted gene coexpression network analysis to identify differenti…

Transumbilical single-port laparoscopy is widely used in gynecological surgery. However, it is rarely used in the treatment of deep infiltrating endometriosis due to its own shortcomings and the complex condition of deep infiltrating endome…

Human endogenous retroviruses (HERVs) have evolved from exogenous retroviruses and account for approximately 8% of the human genome. A growing number of findings suggest that the abnormal expression of HERV genes is associated with schizoph…

Following the approval of Cervarix for the immunization of girls and women in China against high-risk human papillomavirus types 16 and 18, a non-interventional post-authorization safety study was performed. A multi-center prospective cohor…

INTRODUCTION AND IMPORTANCE: Endometriosis is most commonly found in the pelvic area, ~12% of people have it in other areas or organs, which is known as extrapelvic endometriosis. Thoracic endometriosis, which is also classified as extrapel…

Severe endometrial injury caused by invasive uterine operation and/or endometritis often results in intrauterine adhesions (IUAs), which are named Asherman's syndrome (AS), further leading to menstrual disorders, infertility and severe comp…

BACKGROUND: Endometriosis (EMS) is a relapsing and estrogen-dependent disease. For endometriosis such as deep endometriosis and ovarian endometrioid cysts, surgery is the most effective treatment. Long-term follow-up showed that the recurre…

Infants conceived with in vitro fertilization (IVF) are exposed to underlying infertility and the IVF process. High risks of adverse birth outcomes (ABOs) were observed among these infants, including preterm birth, low birth weight, macroso…

BACKGROUND: Identifying independent and interactive associations of a wide range of diseases and multimorbidity and apolipoprotein E4 (APOE4) with dementia may help promote cognitive health. The main aim of the present study was to investig…

BACKGROUND: Emerging evidence has demonstrated a close association between perturbations in vaginal microbiota composition in women and human papillomavirus (HPV) infection, cervical lesions, and cervical cancer (Ca); however, these finding…
