Recent studies have highlighted the crucial role of mechanical properties in the ovarian microenvironment for ovarian function. However, the mechanisms that cause ovarian matrix stiffening during aging remain incompletely understood. Here w…
BACKGROUND: Age-related diminished ovarian reserve (DOR) exhibits marked significant individual variation. Some women of advanced age with normal ovarian reserve (NOR) achieve better reproductive outcomes than age-matched DOR patients. OBJE…
Breast cancer prognosis and treatment outcomes are shaped by intricate interplay between tumor biology, systemic comorbidities, and patient-reported functional status. This paper introduces a framework to address critical gaps in precision …
BackgroundIntracytoplasmic sperm injection (ICSI) is performed in over half of assisted reproductive technology cycles globally; however, the optimal interval between oocyte denudation and sperm injection remains undefined in clinical guide…
PurposeThe goal of optimizing electrogram acquisition in electrophysiology imaging is to minimize the number of electrodes used, determine their optimal placement, and ensure accurate imaging.MethodsWe quantitatively evaluated the impact of…
BACKGROUND: Endometriosis (EMs) is a chronic inflammatory disease often treated with blood-activating and stasis-resolving therapies. Anxiety and depression are common mental comorbidities in patients with EMs. There are no medications avai…
BackgroundManaging failure after an initial assisted reproductive technology (ART) cycle remains a significant clinical challenge. Clinicians often face a dilemma between repeating the index protocol, escalating gonadotropin (Gn) dosages, o…
Endometriosis is a common gynecological disorder characterized by the ectopic growth of endometrium-like tissue outside the uterine cavity and is associated with pelvic pain, infertility, and reduced quality of life. Although several theori…
OBJECTIVE: To identify the risk factors associated with postoperative recurrence of unusual (special-type) uterine smooth muscle neoplasia (USMN) and to construct and interpret a machine-learning model for recurrence risk. METHODS: We carr…
Hysterectomy is the regimen of choice for benign gynecologic diseases, including uterine myoma, adenomyosis, endometriosis, and genital prolapse. Surgeons choose hysterectomy methods based on clinical situations or patients' preferences. Ev…
OBJECTIVE: To assess the safety and efficacy of percutaneous intrauterine hydrodissection as a protective technique during microwave ablation (MWA) of uterine fibroids adjacent to the endometrium. MATERIALS AND METHODS: A retrospective ana…
BACKGROUND: LY01021 is a novel oral small-molecule gonadotropin-releasing hormone (GnRH) receptor antagonist intended for the treatment of various sex hormone-dependent disorders. This study aimed to evaluate the safety, tolerability, pharm…
INTRODUCTION: Endometriosis (EMs) is a chronic inflammatory disorder involving ectopic endometrial-like tissue. Semaphorin 3C (SEMA3C), a secreted guidance protein regulating cell survival, migration, and tissue remodeling, may contribute t…
Pregnant women undergoing assisted reproductive technology (ART) have an increased risk of gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM), potentially linked to altered immune regulation, but the underlying circulating immune features remain unclear. …
Single-cell and spatial omics have revolutionized biomedical research by enabling high-resolution molecular profiling across cells and tissues, thereby overcoming key limitations of bulk sequencing and revealing unprecedented cellular heter…
Hysterectomy is a frequent gynecological surgical technique. With the extensive application of robot-assisted laparoscopic surgery, the feasibility of robot-assisted transvaginal natural orifice translumenal endoscopic surgery (v-NOTES) has…
BackgroundDisrupted sleep and shift work are linked to multiple adverse health outcomes, but their association with reproductive endocrine disorders (REDs) and underlying mechanisms remain unclear. Understanding this relationship is crucial…
OBJECTIVES: The objective of this study was to evaluate the synergistic efficacy and safety of focused ultrasound ablation therapy (FUAS) combined with thermal balloon endometrial ablation (TBEA) in treating adenomyosis. MATERIALS AND METH…
Polycystic Ovary Syndrome (PCOS) is a complex endocrine disorder and a major cause of female infertility. While epigenetic dysregulation, notably DNA methylation, has been recognized as a key driver of PCOS pathogenesis, the specific involv…
Red meat consumption is widespread globally and has been associated with endometriosis (EMS) progression, although the precise underlying mechanisms remain unclear. In the present study, we aimed to explore the mechanisms by which a red mea…
Lysine lactylation (Kla) is a novel form of post-translational modification. It utilizes lactate as its core substrate. Through an enzymatic regulatory network, it mediates modifications of both histones and non-histone proteins. This modif…
PurposeAcute pancreatitis (AP) is an inflammatory disorder with rising global incidence. Substantial progress in elucidating AP pathophysiology has been achieved over the past two decades. This study aims to assess the evolution of AP patho…
N6-methyladenosine (m6A) is a critical regulator of female reproductive physiology, yet existing reviews have focused predominantly on oocytes. The objective of this review is to systematically evaluate the regulatory effects of m6A through…
