PurposeThe goal of optimizing electrogram acquisition in electrophysiology imaging is to minimize the number of electrodes used, determine their optimal placement, and ensure accurate imaging.MethodsWe quantitatively evaluated the impact of…
BACKGROUND: Accurate prediction of the biological behavior of cervical squamous cell carcinoma (CSCC) is essential for optimizing therapeutic strategies and enhancing patient outcomes. This study aims to develop and validate a radiomics nom…
BackgroundReactive nodular fibrous pseudotumor is a rare benign fibroinflammatory lesion of the gastrointestinal tract and mesentery that can closely mimic malignant disease on clinical examination and imaging. Most reported cases are assoc…
Endometriosis is a common gynecological disorder characterized by the ectopic growth of endometrium-like tissue outside the uterine cavity and is associated with pelvic pain, infertility, and reduced quality of life. Although several theori…
ObjectivesThis study investigated the protective effects and mechanisms of rhaponticin (Rha) against acinar cell injury in acute pancreatitis (AP).MethodsPancreatic acinar cell injury was induced using multiple in vitro and in vivo AP model…
BackgroundPolycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) is associated with an increased risk of type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM), and the risk of PCOS increases in patients with T2DM of reproductive age. The bidirectional link between PCOS and T2DM has b…
Precancers, defined as normal-appearing or morphologically altered tissues with a risk of oncogenesis, exhibit various detectable manifestations across anatomical sites, including epithelial dysplasia, metaplasia, hyperplasia, and stromal f…
Endometriosis (EM) is driven by immune dysregulation and macrophage dysfunction, yet the underlying mechanisms remain unclear. Here, metabolomic profiling revealed excessive itaconate accumulation in EM lesions, primarily due to elevated ci…
Neurogenic bladder (NB)-induced fibrosis is the major cause of irreversible bladder dysfunction, yet the underlying mechanisms remain undefined. Here, leveraging single-cell RNA sequencing, the fibrotic landscape of NB is delineated and a d…
The gut microbiota has been implicated in pulmonary vascular diseases, yet a direct causal link to pulmonary embolism (PE) remains unestablished. This study aimed to investigate the causal effects of gut microbiota on PE and to explore the …
Ovarian endometriosis (OEM) is characterised by ectopic endometrial tissue growth within the ovary. In these ectopic lesions, the ectopic epithelium plays a crucial role in OEM progression and has been associated with malignant transformati…
PURPOSE: Endometriosis (EM) is a chronic inflammatory gynecological disorder characterized by ectopic endometrial-like lesions, where aberrant angiogenesis is a hallmark driving lesion establishment and progression. However, the transcripti…
Y-box binding protein 1 (YBX1) has been reported to play a role in human granulosa cell (GC) dysfunction by binding with long noncoding RNAs in patients with primary ovarian insufficiency (POI). 5-Methylcytosine (m5C) methylation is an abun…
In 1995, Morris first described cesarean scar defect as an "isthmocele" by macroscopy following hysterectomy in women with prior cesarean delivery. Cesarean scar defect is associated with gynecological symptoms such as abnormal uterine blee…
Endometritis is a common reproductive disorder in dairy cows, with antibiotics being the primary treatment option. However, the overuse of antibiotics has contributed to the growing problem of antimicrobial resistance. Antimicrobial peptide…
The relationship between hyperprolactinemia and gut microbiota remains unclear at present. This study employs a Mendelian randomization (MR) approach to assess the potential causal links between gut microbiota and the incidence of hyperprol…
BackgroundMethylenetetrahydrofolate reductase (MTHFR) regulates folate metabolism and homocysteine (Hcy) methylation. Impaired folate metabolism and vitamin D deficiency are both closely associated with female reproductive disorders, but th…

The ovaries play essential roles in providing oocytes for fertilization and secreting sex hormones that regulate various organ functions. Autophagy has been implicated in the modulation of ovarian functions, yet its mechanisms of action are…
A good quality egg is essential for a successful pregnancy and early embryo development. Oocyte development is vulnerable to environmental exposures. Bisphenol S (BPS) is widely used as a replacement for its analog bisphenol A, but the repr…
IntroductionPrimary omental pregnancy (OP) is very rare, and achieving an accurate diagnosis has always been a challenge for obstetricians, gynecologists, and sonographers. Our attempt to utilize intraoperative ultrasonography has facilitat…
Ovarian cancer (OC) is a highly lethal gynecologic malignancy because of the absence of specific early symptoms and reliable biomarkers, most OC patients are often diagnosed at advanced stages, resulting in poor prognosis. Traditional tissu…
RationaleThe coexistence of intrauterine and extrauterine pregnancies is termed heterotopic pregnancy (HP). Most reported cases of HP occur after assisted reproductive technology, and HP in a natural pregnancy (NP) is very rare, often disco…
BackgroundUterine fibroids present significant obstetric challenges, particularly in late pregnancy. This study compared the outcomes of cesarean section combined with myomectomy (CS+M) versus cesarean section followed by elective myomectom…
