BACKGROUND: Endometriosis and major depressive disorder (MDD) pose significant global health burdens. Despite pathophysiological overlaps, existing epidemiological studies predominantly examine their unidirectional associations, often const…

We previously developed a four-marker panel for the diagnosis of colorectal cancer (CRC) and adenoma. This study aimed to identify novel bacterial markers to improve adenoma detection using metagenomics and qPCR. Candidate markers were iden…

For women with diminished ovarian reserve or of advanced age, controlled ovarian stimulation presents a significant challenge during in vitro fertilization cycles. This multi-center, open-label, randomized controlled trial enrolled 318 wome…

IntroductionDanshen injection, derived from the traditional Chinese medicine Salvia miltiorrhiza Bunge, has been clinically validated for its safety and efficacy in treating various gynecological diseases, including endometrial fibrosis cau…

BackgroundInfertility poses a significant health challenge for reproductive-aged women globally and could be shaped by both genetic risks and lifestyle factors. Existing studies predominantly focus on individual lifestyle components, while …

Proliferative diabetic retinopathy (PDR) is a microvascular complication of diabetes mellitus. Circular RNAs have been implicated in the pathogenesis of PDR. This study aimed to elucidate the specific mechanism by which circFTO contributes …

AimThis study aimed to compare the diagnostic accuracy of ultrasound (US) and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) in the detection of placenta accreta spectrum (PAS) disorders in a single tertiary care setting.Materials and methodsAll eligible…

MSI-H/dMMR endometrial cancer (EC) is closely linked to the mismatch repair (MMR) pathway, and its pathogenesis is associated with microsatellite instability (MSI) caused by abnormalities in the core genes of the conventional MMR system. Th…

Over the years, obesity has become more commonplace and has had a substantial impact on several medical specialties, including reproductive medicine. The potential correlation between the visceral adiposity index (VAI) and infertility has y…

RESEARCH QUESTION: Does the observed correlation between dyslipidaemia and endometriosis indicate a bidirectional causal association? DESIGN: Bidirectional Mendelian randomization was used to investigate the causal association between lipi…

Endometriosis is characterized as a macrophage-related ailment due to its strong link with immune dysfunction. Understanding the status of macrophage polarization in the context of endometriosis-related infertility is crucial for advancing …

Endometrial fibrosis is the histologic appearance of intrauterine adhesion (IUA). Emerging evidences demonstrated umbilical cord mesenchymal stem cell-derived exosomes (UCMSC-exo) could alleviate endometrial fibrosis. But the specific mecha…

BACKGROUND: The 25-hydroxyvitamin D3 (25 (OH) D3) is crucial for follicular development. This study aimed to investigate the relationship between the level of 25 (OH) D3 in endometriosis patients, pregnancy outcomes of in vitro fertilizatio…

The integrity of the structure and function of the endometrium is essential for the maintenance of fertility. However, the repair mechanisms of uterine injury remain largely unknown. Here, we showed that the disturbance of mechanical cue ho…

BackgroundRecent studies have reported higher risks of adverse maternal and neonatal outcomes, such as hypertensive disorders of pregnancy, after programmed frozen embryo transfer, especially in cycles with gonadotropin-releasing hormone ag…

ObjectiveTo explore the effect of sequential embryo transfer (ET) on the pregnancy outcome of frozen-thawed embryo transfer (FET) cycle and the indications of sequential transfer.MethodsA total of 1440 FET cycles were enrolled in this retro…

Endometriosis (EMS) is a chronic disease that can cause dysmenorrhea, chronic pelvic pain, and infertility, among other symptoms. EMS diagnosis is often delayed compared to other chronic diseases, and there are currently no accurate, easily…

Endometriosis (EMS) is a common gynecological disease. Prostaglandin E2 (PGE2), which induces chronic pelvic inflammation and cell pyroptosis, a form of programmed cell death based on inflammasome activation, are involved in EMS, but the ex…

The sperm quality of some males is in a critical state, making it hard for clinicians to choose the suitable fertilisation methods. This study aimed to develop an intelligent nomogram for predicting fertilisation rate of infertile males wit…

RNA-binding proteins (RBPs) play crucial roles in the post-transcriptional regulation of mRNA during numerous physiological and pathological processes, including tumor genesis and development. However, the role of RNA-binding motif protein …

BackgroundCircadian rhythm disruption impacts a wide range of physiological processes, including fertility. However, the effect of circadian disruption on male spermatogenesis and fertility, and treatments for these effects have been largel…

Epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT) induced by estrogen contributes to the development of adenomyosis. However, the exact underlying mechanism remains mostly obscure. We hypothesized that a transmembrane glycoprotein neuropilin 1 (NRP1)…

BACKGROUND: Studies have shown that variants in PvuII and XbaI loci are associated with the occurrence and progression of endometriosis (EM), while the results were in great debate. METHODS: A systematic review and meta-analysis were conduc…

Acute pancreatitis (AP) is a complex disease that results in significant morbidity and mortality. For many decades, it has compelled researchers to explore the exact pathogenesis and the understanding of the pathogenesis of AP has progresse…
