OBJECTIVE: To explore the relative sensitivity of different methods for detecting cervical glandular lesions. METHODS: A total of 225 patients with cervical glandular lesions diagnosed from January 2018 to February 2023 were retrieved from…
Ovarian endometriosis is characterized by the growth of endometrial tissue within the ovary, causing infertility and chronic pain. However, its pathophysiology remains unclear. Utilizing high-precision single-cell RNA sequencing, we profile…
BACKGROUND: Cancer antigen 125 (CA125) and human epididymis protein 4 (HE4) are the most commonly used tumor biomarkers for ovarian cancer (OC) screening and diagnosis. The risk of ovarian malignancy algorithm (ROMA) score uses these marker…
The endometrial lining of the uterus is essential for women's reproductive health and consists of several different types of epithelial and stromal cells. Although models such as gland-like structures (GLSs) and endometrial assembloids (EnA…
BACKGROUND: Intrauterine adhesion (IUA) is a frequent acquired endometrial condition, for which there is no effective preventive or treatment. Previous studies have found that vaginal microbiota dysregulation is closely related to endometri…
BACKGROUND: Recent studies suggested that NDUFS1 has an important role in human cancers; however, the effects of NDUFS1 on gastric cancer (GC) are still not fully understood. METHODS: We confirmed that NDUFS1 is downregulated in GC cells t…
Ovarian cancer represents one of the most challenging gynecologic cancers which still has numerous unknowns on the underlying pathogenesis. In addition to the verified contributors such as genomic predisposition and medical history in the c…
Endometriosis (EMS) is a disease characterized by estrogen-dependent, chronic inflammatory, and annoying symptoms, which inflicts about 10% reproductive-age women. The diagnosis of endometriosis mainly depends on pathological examination af…
INTRODUCTION: Patients with pulmonary sequestration (PS), a rare congenital lung malformation, are mostly asymptomatic. Recurrent localized infection is a major complication, while sudden hemothorax is extremely rare. We present a case of i…
Recurrent implantation failure (RIF) is a challenge in the field of reproductive medicine, but mechanisms for its occurrence remain still unclear. Long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs) have been found to play a vital role in many different disease…
BACKGROUND: It has been consistently shown in several meta-analyses that infants born after ART have an excess of birth defects compared with those after spontaneous conception, however, the prevalence of birth defects among ART offspring i…
Emerging evidence suggests that children conceived through assisted reproductive technology (ART) have a higher risk of congenital heart defects (CHDs) even when there is no family history. De novo mutation (DNM) is a well-known cause of sp…
In vitro fertilization (IVF) is an important assisted reproductive technology in treating infertility, whose failure rate is still high. Studies suggested that uterine microbiota are related to women's reproductive diseases and persisting i…
OBJECTIVE: To compare the clinical value of contrast-enhanced ultrasonography (CEUS) versus computed tomography (CT) for distinguishing neoplastic and non-neoplastic gallbladder polyps. Given whether laparoscopic cholecystectomy is needed, …
Vaginal microbiota dysbiosis, characterized by the loss of Lactobacillus dominance and increase of microbial diversity, is closely related to gynecological diseases; thus, intervention on microbiota composition is significant and promising …
BACKGROUND: Psychological distress may exert a negative influence on reproductive function of couples at reproductive age. Couples seeking assisted reproductive technology (ART) treatment may have a higher prevalence of psychological distre…
BACKGROUND: We aimed to analyze the differences in the peripheral blood cells and tumor biomarkers between the patients with endometriosis and healthy people, and establish a more efficient combined diagnostic model. METHODS: We retrospect…
•We present a case of atypical adenomyosis with clinical, laboratory, and imaging findings suggestive of a molar pregnancy.•Adenomyosis causes uterine enlargement and may appear cystic on vaginal ultrasound.•Falsely elevated β-hCG in the se…
Purpose: To investigate the effect of primary varicocele and related surgery in male infertility through meta-analysis. Methods: A systematic search of the literature was conducted using the Medline, Embase, Cochrane, and CNKI databases. Th…
Female infertility usually occurs as a result of ageing, physical impairment, hormone disturbances and lifestyle or environmental factors. However, the potential role of Lactobacillus in female infertility has remained largely unexplored. I…
OBJECTIVE: To examine potential risk factors associated with the success rate following fallopian tube recanalization (FTR) in infertile women with obstruction of the proximal fallopian tube. METHODS: We retrospectively studied patients wh…
BACKGROUND: Women with endometriosis and previous cystectomy may respond less well to gonadotropin stimulation, which results in fewer oocytes retrieved and poor pregnancy outcomes. Choosing an appropriate protocol for such populations is e…
Abstract BackgroundCoronavirus Disease 2019 (COVID-19) respiratory disease rapidly caused a global pandemic and social and economic disruption. The combination of Traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) and Conventional Western medicine (CWM) i…
BACKGROUND Previous research has focused on poor outcomes from a lack of insurance, but the effects of different types of insurance for patients with sepsis in the intensive care unit (ICU) have not been well studied. We aimed to investigat…
PURPOSE: Problems with fallopian tubes are one of the main reasons for women to undergo in vitro fertilization-embryo transfer (IVF-ET). A large proportion of women with ectopic pregnancy, fallopian tube obstruction and hydrosalpinx have ha…
