BackgroundNatural cycle frozen embryo transfer (NC-FET) lowers obstetric risks by preserving ovulation and corpus luteum but limits scheduling flexibility. Natural proliferative phase FET (NPP-FET) offers a scheduling-friendly alternative, …
Though tremendous advances have been made in the field of in vitro fertilization (IVF), a portion of patients are still affected by embryo implantation failure issues. One of the most significant factors contributing to implantation failure…
Blocking immune checkpoints, programmed death-1 (PD-1) and its ligand PD-L1, has proven a promising anticancer strategy for enhancing cytotoxic T cell activity. Although we previously demonstrated that ginsenoside Rg3, Rh2, and compound K b…
Low back pain (LBP) is a common condition that affects people of all ages and income levels worldwide. The etiology of LBP may be mechanical, neuropathic, systemic, referred visceral, or secondary to other causes. Despite numerous studies, …
IntroductionThe failure of remodeling the spiral arteries is associated with the pathogenesis of preeclampsia. Estradiol (E2) plays a crucial role in placentation and may be involved in the development of preeclampsia. However, there is a l…
BackgroundVitrified M-II oocyte accumulation for later simultaneous insemination has been used for managing POR. Our study aimed to determine whether vitrified oocyte accumulation strategy improves live birth rate (LBR) for managing diminis…
BackgroundThe Wilms' tumor suppressor WT1 is reported to work in a range of physiological processes at both transcriptional and posttranscriptional level. WT1-associating protein (WTAP), a nuclear protein co-localized with splicing factors,…
Previous studies indicated that progesterone can be withdrawn at the time of the first positive β-hCG test without compromising the clinical pregnancy outcome in normal ovarian responder. However, the effect of early stop of progesterone su…
BackgroundAn endometrial polyp is a frequently encountered gynecologic disease with abnormal uterine bleeding and infertility being the two common presenting problems, and hysteroscopic polypectomy is an effective method to remove them. The…
Gonadotropin-releasing hormone (GnRH) agonist has been used in the treatment of a wide variety of sex-hormone-related diseases, as the administration of GnRH agonist can alter the secretion of gonadotropin and sex hormones. Recently, we fou…
OBJECTIVE: Insertion of the levonorgestrel-releasing intrauterine system Mirena is difficult in women with adenomyosis, and the device is often subsequently expelled. We used a novel insertion technique (Yang's method) to overcome this prob…
OBJECTIVE: To investigate whether focal adhesion kinase (FAK) expression is altered in eutopic endometrium of women with endometriosis. DESIGN: Experimental study using human endometrial tissue. SETTING: Academic research center. PATIENT…
ObjectiveTo investigate cell invasiveness and the production of matrix metalloproteinase-2 (MMP-2), MMP-9, tissue inhibitor of metalloproteinase-1 (TIMP-1) and TIMP-2 in endometrial stromal cells (ESCs) of adenomyosis.DesignProspective stud…
BACKGROUND: The eutopic endometrium in a woman suffering from adenomyosis is known to be biologically different from that of healthy women. The aim of this study was to examine the apoptosis and proliferation of eutopic endometrium from wom…
ObjectiveTo examine changes in local cytokine production in the eutopic endometrium of adenomyosis after treatment with medroxyprogesterone acetate (MPA) and danazol.DesignProspective cohort study.SettingTertiary university hospital.Patient…
PROBLEM: To determine the effects of macrophage on endometrial stromal cells (ESCs) in women with adenomyosis. METHOD OF STUDY: Eutopic endometrium was obtained and separated into single ESC in 10 women with adenomyosis (study group) and 1…
BACKGROUND: Increased expression of killer cell inhibitory receptors (KIRs) has been found on natural killer (NK) cells in peritoneal fluid in women with endometriosis. In this study, we tried to measure the expression of KIRs on NK and T c…
Women who had stage III-IV endometriosis and who were nulliparous or who had delivered no more than two children were much more likely to develop tubo-ovarian abscesses than those without endometriosis.
BACKGROUND: Previous studies have shown that peritoneal macrophages from women with endometriosis produce excess nitric oxide (NO). This study was designed to quantify the amount of NO and determine the expression of endothelial (eNOS) and …
ObjectiveMalfunction of peritoneal natural killer cells (NK) may result in endometriosis. The present study was designed to determine whether the decrease in NK cytotoxicity occurs at early and advanced stages of endometriosis and is due to…
