Objectives: Diminished ovarian reserve (DOR) significantly compromises in vitro fertilization (IVF) success. Although systemic markers such as anti-Müllerian hormone (AMH) serve as valuable clinical indicators of the ovarian reserve, they l…

Background and objectivePoly(ADP-ribose) polymerase inhibitors (PARPis) have fundamentally changed the treatment paradigm for patients with ovarian cancer, especially in tumors with homologous recombination deficiency (HRD). However, acquir…

Perfluorooctane sulfonate (PFOS) is a widely used chemical in industrial production. It can be introduced into the environment through multiple pathways and exhibits resistance to degradation. Recent research has demonstrated a significant …

BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVE: Sepsis-related acute lung injury (S-ALI) had become an important public health issue worldwide. However, the mechanism of S-ALI was still not fully understood. This study aims to investigate the possibility of exos…

BackgroundPreimplantation genetic testing for chromosomal structural rearrangements (PGT-SR) has been widely utilized to select euploid embryos in patients carrying balanced chromosomal rearrangements (BCRs) by chromosome copy number analys…

IntroductionMinimally invasive techniques have been widely adopted for hysterectomy, including Transumbilical Laparoendoscopic Single-Site Surgery (TU-LESS) and Transvaginal Natural Orifice Transluminal Endoscopic Surgery (vNOTES). However,…

Endometriosis (EMs) is a prevalent benign gynecological disorder characterized by dysmenorrhea and infertility, significantly impacting women's health and quality of life. Currently, the pathogenesis of EMs remains incompletely elucidated. …

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…

Cilia in the fallopian tubes (CFT) play an important role in female infertility, but have not been explored comprehensively. This review reveals the detection techniques for CFT function and morphology, and the related analysis of female in…

BackgroundPolycystic ovarian syndrome (PCOS) is a common endocrine and metabolic disease in women. Hyperandrogenaemia (HA) and insulin resistance (IR) are the basic pathophysiological characteristics of PCOS. The aetiology of PCOS has not b…

PROBLEM: Adenomyosis (AM) is associated with immune response and inflammation. However, the role of T cell subsets in AM development has not been thoroughly understood. METHOD OF STUDY: Patients with focal or diffuse AM were recruited. Ser…

PurposeDecreased ovarian reserve function is mainly characterized by female endocrine disorders and fertility decline. Follicular fluid (FF) exosomal microRNAs (miRNAs) have been shown to regulate the function of granulosa cells (GCs). The …

Inadequate endometrial receptivity often results in embryo implantation failure and miscarriage. Human chorionic gonadotropin (hCG) is a key signaling molecule secreted during early embryonic development, which regulates embryonic maternal …

The mammalian target of rapamycin (mTOR) is a serine/threonine protein kinase crucial for cellular differentiation, proliferation, and autophagy. It shows a complex role in the endometrium, influencing both normal and pathogenic conditions.…

BackgroundEmbryonic ploidy is critical for the success of embryo transfer. Currently, preimplantation genetic testing for aneuploidy (PGT-A) is the gold standard for detecting ploidy abnormalities. However, PGT-A has several inherent limita…

BackgroundLaser-assisted hatching (LAH) stands as the predominant technique for removing the zona pellucida (ZP) in embryos, primarily consisting of two methods: drilling laser-assisted hatching (D-LAH) and thinning laser-assisted hatching …

Owing to its difficulty in degrading and ease of accumulation in the body, perfluorooctanoic acid (PFOA) has a detrimental effect on reproduction. This study aimed to examine the effect of PFOA concentration in follicular fluid during ovula…

Polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) is an endocrine and metabolic disorder characterized by chronic low-grade inflammation. Previous studies have demonstrated that the gut microbiome can affect the host tissue cells' mRNA N6-methyladenosine (m…

BackgroundOsteogenic differentiation of aortic valve interstitial cells (AVICs) plays a key role in the calcific aortic valve disease progression. Extracellular vesicles (EVs)-derived from M1-polarized macrophages (M1-EVs) orchestrated inte…

To compare pregnancy outcomes between double stimulation (DouStim) and two consecutive mild stimulations in poor ovarian responders, this study retrospectively analyzed 281 patients diagnosed as having poor ovarian response (POR) who underw…

BackgroundBalloon dilation is a commonly used minimally invasive endourological treatment of ureteral stricture, but the postoperative recurrence rate is relatively high. And factors contributing to recurrence after treatment are poorly und…

Centella asiatica (also known as Centella asiatica (L.) Urb. or Gotu kola) is a traditional Chinese medicine with extensive medicinal value, which is commonly used in Southeast Asian countries. This study aimed to summarize the effects of C…

It is unknown whether seasonal variation influences the outcome of in vitro fertilization (IVF). Previous studies related to seasonal variation of IVF were all small sample size, and the results were conflicting. We performed a retrospectiv…

ObjectiveAdenomyosis is a common benign gynecological disease which has some malignant behaviors. Programmed cell death 4 (PDCD4) is a newly identified tumor suppressor gene which lowly expresses in various cancers. However, the expression …
