Cesarean section scar diverticulum (CSD) has become a formidable obstacle preventing women receiving CS from reproducing. However, the pathogenesis of CSD remains unexplored. In this study, we characterized the cervical microbiota, metabolo…
The uterus is the core place for breeding new life. The balance and imbalance of uterine microecology can directly affect or even dominate the female reproductive health. Emerging data demonstrate that endometrial microbiota, endometrium an…
INTRODUCTION: Nonobstructive azoospermia (NOA) is a common and severe form of male infertility. Microdissection testicular sperm extraction (microTESE) combined with intracytoplasmic sperm injection (ICSI) is an optimal treatment for men wi…
Polygenic risk scores (PRS) for epithelial ovarian cancer (EOC) have the potential to improve risk stratification. Joint estimation of Single Nucleotide Polymorphism (SNP) effects in models could improve predictive performance over standard…
BACKGROUND: This study observed and described the morphological characteristics of the endometrium of the resected uterus using confocal laser endomicroscopy. This included benign endometrium, non-atypical endometrial hyperplasia, atypical …
Abstract Purpose To investigate whether the assisted reproductive technology (ART) outcome differed amongst women with primary and recurrent endometriomas and to identify prognostic factors for a poor cumulative live birth rate (cLBR) in …
ObjectiveThis study aimed to better understand the psychological experiences of inpatients with acute pancreatitis (AP).DesignWe used a qualitative descriptive study design to capture patients with AP's thoughts, feelings and behavioural re…
In a normal pregnancy, maternal circulatory system presents a hypercoagulable state due to the effect of hormone secretion. Even minor variations in fibrinolytic system could lead to hyper- or hypofibrinolysis, affecting placental formation…

To evaluate and holistically treat the mental health sequelae and potential psychiatric comorbidities associated with obstetric and gynaecological conditions, it is important to optimize patient care, ensure efficient use of limited resourc…
Abstract Background: Endometriosis is a common gynecologic pathology among reproductive-aged women. The lack of a definitive clinical symptom and a minimally invasive diagnostic method lead to a diagnostic latency of endometriosis. In this…
It has been confirmed that circular RNA participates in tumorgenesis through a variety of ways, so it may be used as a molecular marker for tumor diagnosis and treatment. In this study, the expression of circ-LOPD2 in ovarian cancer tissues…
OBJECTIVE: To investigate the clinical effect of high intensity focused ultrasound (HIFU) ablation combined with gonadotropin-releasing hormone agonist (GnRH-a) and levonorgestrel-releasing intrauterine system (LNG-IUS) in the treatment of …
BACKGROUND: Chronic spontaneous urticaria (CSU) is a common autoimmune skin disease. Little is known about the role of epigenetics in the pathogenesis of CSU. This study aimed to investigate genome-wide DNA methylation profile in whole bloo…
