BACKGROUND: An increasing body of evidence indicates that exposure to metal elements may adversely affect female fertility. While the association between metal concentrations in the follicular fluid (FF) and fertility is acknowledged, the r…

Infertility is a prevalent clinical issue which disrupts normal human life and exerts an impact on fertility rates within the population. The increase in environmental pollutants, including acetyl tributyl citrate (ATBC), has given rise to …

OBJECTIVE: Brain-derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF) is considered to participate in regulating the endometriosis (EM) process. However, other functions and mechanisms of BDNF in EM progression still need to be further studied. MATERIAL AND…

BACKGROUND: The follicular-phase long GnRHa protocol is a common protocol in COH. This study mainly analyzed the recovery of FSH levels on the day of Gn initiation compared with basal FSH levels on the day of downregulation and studied the …

BACKGROUND: After early pregnancy loss (EPL), couples often seek counselling on how long to wait before attempting to conceive again. However, the optimal interpregnancy interval (IPI) between EPL and the next pregnancy is controversial. Ad…

PURPOSE: To investigate the impact of storage duration after vitrification of cleavage-stage embryos on pregnancy and perinatal outcomes. METHODS: A retrospective study was conducted on 4205 infertile patients underwent frozen-thawed embry…

BACKGROUND: Platinum resistance remains a major cause of treatment failure in ovarian cancer (OC). Cancer-associated fibroblasts (CAFs), key components of the tumor microenvironment, play critical roles in OC progression. Inhibin subunit be…

OBJECTIVE: Endometrial cancer (EC) is a common gynecologic malignancy globally, but the role of the intratumoral microbiome remains poorly defined. While microbial dysbiosis is increasingly linked to cancer, the composition, function, and c…

IntroductionUlcerative colitis (UC) is a lifelong, chronic inflammatory disorder, characterized by recurrent and diffuse inflammation of the rectal and colonic mucosa. Increasing evidence suggests that impaired mitophagy contributes to immu…

BACKGROUND: Polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) is a leading cause of anovulatory infertility. Despite a high antral follicle count, advanced-age PCOS patients experience a marked decline in cumulative live birth rates (CLBR) after assisted re…

ETHNOPHARMACOLOGICAL RELEVANCE: Yiqi Huoxue Formula (YQHXF) is an 11-herb hospital-based traditional Chinese medicinal formula developed according to the therapeutic principle of tonifying qi and activating blood circulation. Previous clini…

Endometrial immune disorders create an inhospitable endometrial environment for embryonic nidation in endometriosis. CD8 + tissue resident memory T cells (CD8 +TRM) are abundant tissue resident immune cells in endometrium, but the effect of…

OBJECTIVES: Acute pancreatitis, recurrent acute pancreatitis, and chronic pancreatitis are recognized as a continuum of pancreatic diseases. Recurrence increases the risk of progression to chronic pancreatitis. The aim of this study was to …

OBJECTIVE: To explore the role of endometrial defects in the pathogenesis of abnormal uterine bleeding (AUB). DESIGN: Retrospective case-control study. SETTING: Two tertiary centres. POPULATION OR SAMPLE: We included 155 patients with ca…

The global decline in fertility rates has intensified the reliance on assisted reproductive technology (ART) for infertility treatment. Antioxidant supplementation, particularly with coenzyme Q10 (CoQ10), has gained prominence as a therapeu…

Ageing of the endometrium is a critical factor that affects reproductive health, yet its intricate mechanisms remain poorly explored. In this study, we performed transcriptome profiling and experimental verification of endometrium and endom…

INTRODUCTION: Cisplatin resistance is a major challenge in ovarian cancer therapy, particularly for high-grade serous ovarian cancer (HGSOC). DNA topoisomerase IIα (TOP2A) relates to cancer drug resistance, yet its role and molecular mechan…

Abnormal post-translational modifications (PTMs) play a crucial role in tumor initiation and progression. However, the mechanisms by which lncRNAs, as emerging epigenetic regulators, mediate PTMs remain largely unexplored. This review provi…

BACKGROUND: Endometriosis (EMS) and adenomyosis have adverse effects on women's fertility. In vitro fertilization (IVF) and intracytoplasmic sperm injection (ICSI) are effective treatments for these diseases. Research has shown that differe…

This study aims to investigate the follicle microenvironment of individuals with premature ovarian insufficiency (POI), normal ovarian reserve (normal), and advanced maternal age (AMA), and identify potential therapeutic targets. A total of…

High-intensity focused ultrasound (HIFU) ablation is a minimally invasive treatment for benign gynecological diseases, though skin burns remain a potential complication. Understanding risk factors is critical for improving safety. In this s…
