Emerging evidence suggests that microbiota dysbiosis plays a critical role in the pathogenesis of endometrial cancer (EC), a leading cause of cancer-related deaths in women globally. However, few studies have simultaneously examined both th…

Study questionWhat are the impacts of different male infertility factors on embryological, cumulative pregnancy and neonatal outcomes of IVF/ICSI cycles?Summary answerSome severe male infertility factors, i.e. severe oligoasthenozoospermia …

In clinical drug development, two fundamental questions must be addressed: what is the success rate of drugs in clinical trial; how does such rate change over time. Here, a dynamic strategy for calculating clinical trial success rate (ClinS…

BackgroundLow- and middle-income countries are facing an increase in the incidence of acute pancreatitis (AP)-characterized by rapid onset, fast progression, high rate of severity, and high mortality. Progression of AP into severe AP (SAP) …

Mifepristone is a well-established pharmaceutical agent in obstetrics and gynecology, which has expanded its therapeutic applications to Cushing's syndrome, meningioma, and even mental disease. The incidence of progesterone receptor modulat…

Asherman Syndrome (AS) is caused by injury to the endometrium leading to uterine scarring, decreased menstruation and infertility; it typically occurs after surgical curettage of the uterus. AS is treated surgically albeit with limited succ…

ObjectiveTo evaluate the pregnancy and perinatal outcomes of different phenotypes of polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) patients during the frozen embryo transfer (FET) cycles. Additionally, to analyze the T cell balance in the endometrium of…

BackgroundThe role of estrogen in liver cancer cells has attracted attention, but its specific actions and underlying mechanisms remain unclear.MethodsFlow CytoMetry and Western blotting were used to investigate the mechanism of HOXA11-AS a…

Endometriosis is a chronic inflammatory disease for which there is currently no accurate screening test to identify or predict the probability of the disease in individuals. This can often lead to delays in diagnosis. Several systemic immun…

ObjectiveTo explore the micro blood flow characteristics of normal singleton pregnancy placenta in middle and late pregnancy based on microvascular flow (MV-Flow) imaging.MethodsWe conducted a retrospective cohort study. Clinical records an…

Ferredoxins (FDXs) are evolutionarily conserved iron-sulfur (Fe-S) proteins that serve as master regulators of mitochondrial redox homeostasis, governing critical processes including electron transfer, energy metabolism, Fe-S cluster biogen…

BackgroundThe prevention, management, and treatment of female cancers among women of childbearing age (WCBA) are crucial strategies for achieving the objectives outlined in the World Health Organization (WHO) Global Breast Cancer Initiative…

BackgroundThis study aims to describe the global burden of female infertility, analyze its spatial and temporal trends, and offer targeted epidemiological insights to support the prevention and management of female infertility.MethodsDrawin…

ObjectiveTo evaluate the effects of GnRH-a pretreatment with 1.5 mg or 3.75 mg, in combination with hormone replacement therapy (HRT), on pregnancy outcomes in women with polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) undergoing frozen embryo transfer (F…

AIM: Endometriosis is characterized by immune evasion and progressive inflammation. This study aimed to identify key genes related to immune and inflammation in endometriosis. METHODS: Differentially expressed genes between patients with a…

ObjectiveThis study aimed to develop a machine learning (ML) model integrated with SHapley Additive exPlanations (SHAP) analysis to predict postpartum hemorrhage (PPH) following vaginal deliveries, offering a potential tool for personalized…

Accurate identification of the endometrial region is critical for the early detection of endometrial lesions. However, current detection models still face two major challenges when processing endometrial imaging data: (1) In complex and noi…

Endometriosis has been increasingly associated with the aberrant regulation of non-coding RNAs (ncRNAs), particularly long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs) and microRNAs (miRNAs). Despite the growing recognition of their biological significance, t…

Inflammatory diseases, including autoimmune, infectious, and metabolic disorders, remain major global health challenges due to their complex pathogenesis and limited therapeutic options. In recent years, bioinspired nanotechnology has emerg…

BACKGROUND: Recurrent implantation failure (RIF) remains a significant barrier in assisted reproductive technology (ART), where multiple transfers of high-quality embryos fail to achieve pregnancy. While embryo-related factors have been ext…

Abnormal post-translational modifications (PTMs) play a crucial role in tumor initiation and progression. However, the mechanisms by which lncRNAs, as emerging epigenetic regulators, mediate PTMs remain largely unexplored. This review provi…

BackgroundMaternal short-term outcomes of postpartum depression (PPD) were widely examined, but little is known about its long-term association with multiple chronic diseases (multimorbidity) in women's later life. This study aims to assess…

ObjectivesThis study aimed to dissect the aetiological subgroups of postpartum haemorrhage (PPH) that occur after vaginal delivery in women with full-term singleton pregnancies. Our goal was to craft and validate predictive models to guide …

Nanodrug delivery systems (NDDS) have demonstrated broad application prospects in disease treatment, prevention, and diagnosis due to several advantages, including functionalization capability, high drug-loading capacity, drug stability pro…

BackgroundTo investigate the optimal periendometrial zone (PEZ) in ultrasound (US) images and assess the performance of ultrasound radiomics in predicting the outcome of frozen embryo transfer (FET).MethodsThis prospective study had 422 fem…
