BACKGROUND: Endometriosis, a gynecological disease that affects up to 10% of women, is a major cause of pain and infertility. Deregulation of the epigenome is accountable for the onset and progression of endometriosis, although its exact me…

Gut microbiota and its metabolites are related to the female reproductive system. Animal experiments have demonstrated the relationship between gut microbiota-derived short chain fatty acids (SCFAs) and embryo quality. However, few studies …

PURPOSE: Laparotomic or hysteroscopic myomectomy, and high-intensity focussed ultrasound (HIFU), can be used in the treatment of Type 2 myomas with a > 50% intramural component. Hysteroscopic electroresection may damage the remaining endome…

Endometriosis is associated with ovarian cancers, mainly endometrioid and clear-cell carcinomas. Iron metabolism has been shown to play a role in endometriosis. Therefore, it is vital to explore the relationship between iron metabolism and …

OBJECTIVE: To study biomarkers to develop a novel diagnosis model for endometriosis and validate it using clinical samples. DESIGN: We used publicly available data sets and weighted gene coexpression network analysis to identify differenti…

OBJECTIVE: This study assessed the impact of the cervical microbiome on reproductive outcomes in frozen embryo transfer (FET) patients. STUDY DESIGN: This cross-sectional study included 120 women (aged 20-40 years) undergoing FET. A cervic…

STUDY QUESTION: What are the differences in gene expression of cumulus cells (CCs) between young women with diminished ovarian reserve (DOR) and those of similar age with normal ovarian reserve (NOR)? SUMMARY ANSWER: Gene expression and me…

The aim of this study was to investigate whether maternal age had an effect on the birthweight of singletons delivered from frozen-thawed blastocyst transfer (FBT) cycles. A total of 1203 FBT cycles occurring between July 2011 and June 2021…

BACKGROUND: We previously reported that obese mice had significantly high lipid content in embryos, and excessive lipids are detrimental to embryonic development. However, whether maternal obesity has an effect on embryonic vitrification in…

RESEARCH QUESTION: Does iron overload in patients with endometriosis affect ovarian function? Can a method be developed to visually reflect this? DESIGN: Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) R2* was used to evaluate the correlation between iro…

OBJECTIVE: To investigate the effect of the long-acting gonadotropin-releasing hormone agonist (GnRHa) long protocol on in vitro fertilization (IVF) outcomes of patients with endometriosis (EMs). METHODS: This retrospective cohort study wa…

INTRODUCTION: Stage IB (deep myometrial invasion) high-grade endometrioid adenocarcinoma (EA), regardless of LVSI status, is classified into high-intermediate risk groups, requiring surgical lymph node staging. Intraoperative frozen section…

BACKGROUND: The current routine endometrial preparation protocol for women with polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) is hormone replacement treatment (HRT). Letrozole is rarely used in frozen embryo cycles. Evidence confirming whether letrozole…

INTRODUCTION: Hormone replacement treatment (HRT) is the most commonly used endometrial preparation protocol for frozen embryo transfer (FET) in patients with polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS). However, studies have found that HRT may increa…

Interest in edible and medicinal macrofungi is millennial in terms of their uses in health and food products in Central Asia, while interest in inedible and medicinal macrofungi has grown in popularity in recent years. Edible and inedible m…

BACKGROUND: Intravascular leiomyomatosis (IVL) is often a non-malignant condition that grows inside the blood vessels and does not invade surrounding tissues. However, its presence within the blood vessels can lead to obstructions. The majo…

BACKGROUND: This study aims to investigate the association between sleep quality and infertility among women and to explore the mediating effects of DNA methylation in this association. METHODS: This study is a population-based case-contro…

BACKGROUND: Endometriosis (EMs), the ectopic planting of functional endometrium outside of the uterus, is a leading cause of infertility and pelvic pain. As a fundamental mRNA modification, N6-methyladenosine (m6A) participates in various p…

Ovarian dysfunction is a common cause of female infertility, which is associated with genetic, autoimmune and environmental factors. Granulosa cells (GCs) constitute the largest cell population of ovarian follicles. Changes in GCs, includin…

BACKGROUND & AIMS: Loss of AT-rich interactive domain-containing protein 1A (ARID1A) fosters acinar-to-ductal metaplasia (ADM) and pancreatic carcinogenesis by down-regulating transcription programs controlling acinar cell identity. However…

Autophagy is an evolutionarily conserved cellular degradation and recycling process. It is important for maintaining vital cellular function and metabolism. Abnormal autophagy activity can cause the development of various diseases. N6-methy…

Abstract Background Endometriosis is still a difficult problem for women.The Nuclear Ubiquitous Casein and cyclin-dependent Kinase Substrate 1(NUCKS1)gene is located on human chromosome 1q32.1. It encodes the NUCKS1 protein, a 27 kDa nuclea…

OBJECTIVE: To explore the association between ovulation induction drugs and ovarian cancer. DESIGN: Systematic review and meta-analysis. SETTING: Not applicable. PATIENT(S): Women without ovarian cancer who ever or never underwent ovaria…

Endometriosis is a common inflammatory disease in women of reproductive age and is highly associated with infertility. However, the molecular mechanism of endometriosis remains unclear. 6-Phosphofructose-2-kinase/fructose-2,6-bisphosphatase…

The pathological retinal angiogenesis often causes blindness. Current anti-angiogenic therapy for proliferative retinopathy targets the vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF), but many patients do not radically benefit from this therapy.…
