BackgroundTo investigate the long-term systemic effects of tubal sterilisation using the silver clip technique, a commonly used yet understudied permanent contraceptive method, by evaluating its impact on inflammatory responses and coagulat…
ObjectiveThis study aimed to develop an ultrasound-based deep learning radiomics nomogram for differentiating endometrial hyperplasia with polyps from endometrial cancer in endometrial lesions and to explore its clinical diagnostic efficacy…
This study aimed to investigate the impacts of granulocyte colony-stimulating factor (G-CSF) and platelet-rich plasma (PRP) on the pregnancy outcomes of infertile individuals with endometriosis after in vitro fertilization and embryo transf…
Primary infertility affects 15% of couples worldwide, yet many genetic causes remain unknown. Through whole-exome sequencing of a woman with primary infertility and repeated embryo implantation failure, we identified a novel homozygous fram…
Single-cell RNA sequencing (scRNA-seq) serves as a crucial tool for rapidly and accurately quantifying tissue heterogeneity and its associated biological significance within highly organized life systems. In this study, we utilized scRNA-se…
IntroductionPoor ovarian response (POR) is a major barrier to in vitro fertilization (IVF) success. We assessed whether adjunctive acupuncture is associated with improved IVF outcomes among women with POR.MethodsWe conducted a retrospective…
BackgroundPelvic floor dysfunction (PFD) is a common cause of chronic constipation which can reciprocally exacerbate pelvic floor burden. However, the characteristics and evolution of pelvic floor structures in patients with constipation re…
BackgroundDiminished ovarian reserve (DOR) has emerged as a significant reproductive challenge and a broader societal concern. Most previous studies have focused on ovarian reserve markers, while limited research has examined DOR as a prima…
BACKGROUND: Adenomyosis is commonly associated with dysmenorrhea and heavy menstrual bleeding. Although the levonorgestrel-releasing intrauterine system (Mirena, LNG-IUS) is recommended as a first-line conservative treatment, device displac…
Objective: To investigate the differences in clinicopathological and molecular characteristics between pure ovarian endometrioid carcinoma (POEC) and synchronous endometrial and ovarian endometrioid carcinoma (SEOEC), aiming to provide a ba…
BACKGROUND: Endometriosis exhibits tissue- and cell-compartment heterogeneity in inflammatory and metabolic activity. We evaluated compartment-specific remodeling in primary endometriosis tissues and used TCGA-UCEC as an independent cancer …
BackgroundIn clinical practice, the management of luteinizing hormone (LH) levels during controlled ovarian hyperstimulation (COH) with gonadotropin releasing hormone antagonist (GnRH-ant) protocols presents a significant challenge that can…
BACKGROUND: Regional and hierarchical disparities in gynecological care may compromise equity and quality in China. Assessing structural resources, clinical processes, and outcomes is critical to guide system improvement. METHODS: We conduc…
IntroductionDiminished ovarian reserve (DOR) is known to reduce the likelihood of achieving pregnancy or live births in women undergoing in vitro fertilization and embryo transfer (IVF-ET). Acupuncture maybe effective for DOR, but current e…
Embryo implantation requires coordinated interactions between the embryo and the maternal endometrium. Endometrial organoids (EOs) have emerged as promising in vitro models for studying this process. At present, however, mouse-derived EOs (…
In this narrative review, we summarize current evidence regarding the endometrium undergoes cyclic remodeling driven by estrogen (E2) and progesterone (P4) signaling, with precise coordination essential for receptivity and pregnancy establi…

Background and objectiveIleal ureter replacement (IUR) is the definitive management approach for extensive ureteral strictures (UrSs). Patients with UrS exhibit poor health-related quality of life (HRQoL). We conducted a long-term, multi-in…
Metabolic determinants of oocyte quality and embryonic development remain incompletely understood. Here, we profiled metabolites in human cumulus cells (CCs) and follicular fluid (FF), validated in two mouse models, and integrated transcrip…
ObjectiveTo investigate oncological and reproductive outcomes in patients with mismatch repair-deficient (MMRd) endometrial endometrioid carcinoma (EEC) or atypical endometrial hyperplasia (AEH) undergoing fertility-preserving treatment to …
OBJECTIVE: To compare the efficacy of different COH protocols on pregnancy outcomes in adenomyosis patients. STUDY DESIGN: A real-world retrospective cohort study analyzed 1486 IVF-ET cycles in adenomyosis patients who received COH regimen…
Age-related fertility decline is an increasingly important challenge in reproductive medicine, driven largely by progressive ovarian aging. The aging ovary undergoes functional deterioration characterized by reduced ovarian reserve and decl…
Precancers, defined as normal-appearing or morphologically altered tissues with a risk of oncogenesis, exhibit various detectable manifestations across anatomical sites, including epithelial dysplasia, metaplasia, hyperplasia, and stromal f…
To explore the material basis and network mechanism of the Guizhi Fuling pills in the treatment of endometriosis and endometrial polyps based on network pharmacology and machine learning. The effective constituents and targets of the Guizhi…
