BACKGROUND: Ovarian pregnancy after assisted reproductive technology treatment has rarely been reported; ovarian pregnancy following intrauterine insemination (IUI) is even rarer, and only nine cases have previously been reported. CASE SUM…

Hyperstimulation of the cholecystokinin 1 receptor (CCK1R), a G protein-coupled receptor (GPCR), in pancreatic acinar cells is commonly used to induce pancreatitis in rodents. Human pancreatic acinar cells lack CCK1R but express cholinergic…

OBJECTIVE: Review the menstrual and obstetric outcomes among Asherman syndrome patients when stratified by disease severity. DESIGN: Retrospective cohort study. SETTING: A community teaching hospital affiliated with a large academic medic…

BACKGROUND: Previous studies have focused on pregnancy outcomes after frozen embryo transfer (FET) performed using different endometrial preparation protocols. Few studies have evaluated the effect of endometrial preparation on pregnancy-re…

Robert's uterus is a rare Müllerian malformation first characterized by a French gynecologist Héléne Robert in 1969. It represents an asymmetric division of the uterine cavity. A 45-year-old female patient presented with vaginal bleeding an…

BACKGROUND: To examine differences in the maternal characteristics and pregnancy outcomes of Chinese women with various causes of infertility who underwent in vitro fertilization (IVF) with embryonic cryopreservation treatment. METHODS: Ca…

Deficiency in decidualization has been widely regarded as an important cause of spontaneous abortion. Generalized decidualization also includes massive infiltration and enrichment of NK cells. However, the underlying mechanism of decidual N…

Endometriosis is a benign, chronic inflammatory disease that commonly occurs in reproductive-aged women. Epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT) of endometrial epithelial cells plays an important role in the development of endometriosis. Re…

BACKGROUND: This study aimed to investigate the clinical and pathological characteristics, and the recurrence and prognostic factors of borderline ovarian tumors (BOTs). METHODS: The data of 286 patients admitted to hospital and followed u…

BACKGROUND: To describe our initial experience with robotic ureteral reimplantation for the management of ureterovaginal fistulas. METHODS: Between January 2018 and January 2020, four patients received robotic ureteral reimplantation for u…

Transcription factors of the SOX family were first discovered in mammals in 1990. The sex-determining region Y box 9 belongs to the SOX transcription factor family. It plays an important role in inducing tissue and cell morphogenesis, survi…

Biomarkers-guided precision therapeutics has revolutionized the clinical development and administration of molecular-targeted anticancer agents. Tailored precision cancer therapy exhibits better response rate compared to unselective treatme…

Phosphatase and tensin homolog deleted on chromosome ten (PTEN) is widely known as a tumor suppressor gene. It is located on chromosome 10q23 with 200 kb, and has dual activity of both protein and lipid phosphatase. In addition, as a target…

BACKGROUND: Thin endometrial thickness (EMT) has been suggested to be associated with reduced incidence of pregnancy rate after in vitro fertilization/intracytoplasmic sperm injection (IVF/ICSI) treatment, but the effect of thin endometrium…

Acute pancreatitis (AP) is an inflammatory disease of the pancreas. Accumulating studies have revealed the involvement of tumor necrosis factor alpha-induced protein 3 (TNFAIP3) in the progression of AP. Here, the current study was conducte…

The vaginal and uterine microbiota play important roles in the health of the female reproductive system. However, the interactions among the microbes in these two niches and their effects on uterine health remain unclear. Here we profile th…

Nondegradable transvaginal polypropylene meshes for treating pelvic organ prolapse (POP) are now generally unavailable or banned due to serious adverse events. New tissue engineering approaches combine degradable scaffolds with mesenchymal …

PURPOSE: Uterine angiomyolipoma (AML) is a rare condition involving benign tumors composed of varying proportions of blood vessels, fat, and epithelioid or spindled smooth muscle cells. We analyzed the clinicopathological features, diagnosi…

Abstract BackgroundEndometriosis is a refractory and recurrent disease and it affects nearly 10% of reproductive-aged women and 40% of infertile patients. The commonly accepted theory for endometriosis is retrograde menstruation where endo…

STUDY QUESTION: Does P2X ligand-gated ion channel 3 (P2X3) play a role in endometriosis pain? SUMMARY ANSWER: Upregulation of P2X3 in dorsal root ganglia (DRG) tissues via the activating transcription factor 3 (ATF3)/activator protein (AP)…

INTRODUCTION: This retrospective cohort study evaluated the impact of endometriosis on the risks of work loss events and salary/growth over a 5-year period. METHODS: Women aged 18-49 years with ≥ 1 endometriosis diagnosis were identified i…

The aim of this study was to investigate the relationship between blood lipid level and the parameters of embryo morphology of in vitro fertilization (IVF).A total of 488 patients undergoing conventional IVF were divided into pregnant (n = …

BACKGROUND: Although ataxia-telangiectasia and Rad3 related (ATR) has an established role in the DNA damage response of various cancers, its clinical and prognostic significance in ovarian cancer remains largely unknown. The aims of this st…

Adhesion is a postoperative complication that has plagued gynecologists for many years, as 60-90% of gynecological patients develop adhesions after abdominopelvic surgeries. Abdominopelvic adhesions could lead to chronic pelvic pain, infert…

BACKGROUND: Many studies have demonstrated the benefits of the addition of growth hormone (GH) to the controlled ovarian stimulation protocol in vitro fertilization (IVF) cycles in poor-respond patients, but the effect of GH on patients wit…
