OBJECTIVES: This case report presented cases with spontaneous hemoperitoneum during pregnancy. CASE REPORT: Case 1 presented with acute abdominal pain with signs of shock. Cases 2 and 3 both presented with stable vital signs and the sudden…

INTRODUCTION: Abnormal angiogenesis is central to vascular disease and cancer, and noninvasive biomarkers of vascular origin are needed to evaluate patients and therapies. Vascular endothelial growth factor receptors (VEGFRs) are often dysr…

We used a claims database to identify patients with uterine leiomyomas who underwent hysterectomy between 2011 and 2019. Use of conservative medical and surgical interventions in the 24-month period before hysterectomy was explored. Overall…

Female fertility declines with age, and this natural variation culminates in reproductive senescence. Human follicular fluids are rich in low-molecular weight metabolites which are responsible for the maturation of oocytes. The metabolomic …

Abnormal endometrial receptivity is a major cause of the failure of embryo transplantation, which may lead to infertility, adverse pregnancy, and neonatal outcomes. While hormonal treatment has dramatically improved the fertility outcomes i…

BACKGROUND: Placement of a levonorgestrel-releasing intrauterine system (LNG-IUS) is an effective treatment for adenomyosis, especially for patients who have severe dysmenorrhea symptoms but a strong desire to preserve fertility. Nonetheles…

BACKGROUND: Predicting the number of oocytes retrieved (NOR) following controlled ovarian stimulation (COS) is the only way to ensure effective and safe treatment in assisted reproductive technology (ART). To date, there have been limited s…

Objective: To investigate the role of adenosine diphosphate ribosylation factor 6 (Arf6) in the pathogenesis of endometriosis. Methods: Endometrial tissues were sampled from women who were hospitalized in the Affiliated Hospital of Medical …

IMPORTANCE: There is a lack of information regarding the need to postpone conception after COVID-19 vaccination. OBJECTIVE: To investigate the time interval between the first dose of inactivated COVID-19 vaccine and in vitro fertilization …

BACKGROUND: Endometriosis (EM) is a common gynecological disorder that often leads to irregular menstruation and infertility. The pathogenesis of EM remains unclear and delays in diagnosis are common. Thus, it is urgent to explore potential…

Septate uterus with duplicate cervices and double vagina is a rare Müllerian duct anomaly mostly found in labor or gynecological examination. We present a case of a 40-year-old asymptomatic parous patient diagnosed with double cervix and co…

Recent evidence indicates that circular RNAs (circRNAs) play crucial regulatory roles in the pathogenesis and development of endometriosis. Circ_0004712 was found to be differentially expressed in endometriosis. However, the detailed functi…

OBJECTIVE: To explore the clinical efficacy of assisted reproductive technology (ART) combined with progesterone capsules in the treatment of infertility caused by the diminished ovarian reserve (DOR) and its influence on serum FSH, E2, and…

OBJECTIVE: To explore the difference in clinical efficacy and safety of transvaginal and transumbilical single port laparoscopy for endometrial cancer. METHODS: We retrospectively included 100 endometrial cancer patients who were admitted …

BACKGROUND: Acupuncture or moxibustion has been proven to be effective for patients with primary dysmenorrhea (PDM). However, the respective advantages and potential central mechanism of acupuncture and moxibustion are worthy of investigati…

We aim to investigate the correlation between the expression of estrogen-related receptor γ (ERRγ) and endometrial cancer (EC) progression and to evaluate the potential of ERRγ as a new biomarker for EC diagnosis. We analyzed the ERRγ expre…

AIM: To investigate the value of amide proton transfer weighted (APTw) imaging and R2∗ mapping of cystic fluid in differentiating ovarian endometriotic cysts (OE) from other ovarian cystic (OOC) lesions. MATERIALS AND METHODS: A total of 4…

Abstract Purpose Although numerous studies have attempted to establish the relationship between adenomyosis and infertility, no consensus has emerged. Our aim was to investigate whether adenomyosis and endometriosis affected IVF outcomes in…

BACKGROUND: With the implementation of the two-child policy in China, more couples have expressed the desire to have another child. We conducted this study to evaluate the incidence of infertility and risk factors in couples intending to ha…

BACKGROUND: Uterine corpus endometrial carcinoma (UCEC) is the third most common gynecologic malignancy. Fatty acid metabolism (FAM) is an essential metabolic process in the immune microenvironment that occurs reprogramming in the presence …

BACKGROUND: Adenomyosis refers to a pathological damage resulting from local and diffuse lesions in endometrium, caused by invasive endometrial gland and its mesenchyme. Our study aimed to reveal miR-183's role in the development of adenomy…

OBJECTIVE: Predictive models of the cumulative live birth (CLB) in women undergoing in vitro fertilization (IVF) treatment are limited. The aim of this study was to develop and validate a nomogram for the CLB in women undergoing the first I…

BACKGROUND: In recent years, the issue of out-of-network billing for privately insured patients has been highlighted as a source of unexpected out-of-pocket charges for patients, even in the setting of an in-network primary surgeon. The Con…

OBJECTIVE: The purpose of this study was to investigate iron metabolism indices in ovarian endometriosis (OEMs) and to demonstrate the potential clinical implications in the initiation and development of OEMs. METHODS: Three datasets in Ge…
