OBJECTIVE: This prospective observational study aims to demonstrate the clinical efficacy of dienogest in treating endometriomas with a maximum diameter of ≥4 cm. METHODS: Patients (n = 81) with endometriomas (diameter of ≥4 cm) were enrol…

Examining the impact of Sanjie Zhentong capsules on hormone levels and serum expression of folate receptor 1 (FOLR1) and Mesothelin (MSLN) in endometriosis patients. A cohort of 150 endometriosis patients admitted between June 2019 and June…

PURPOSE: The purpose of this study was to perform a meta-analysis comparing the short-term and long-term outcomes in laparoscopic groin hernia repair with or without preservation of the uterine round ligament (URL) in females. METHODS: We …

Cystic adenomyosis is a rare type of adenomyosis. The main clinical manifestation of uterine cystic adenomyoma is severe dysmenorrhoea, and the condition can be diagnosed by relevant clinical examination. The preferred treatment, with a goo…

PROBLEM: Adenomyosis (AM) is associated with immune response and inflammation. However, the role of T cell subsets in AM development has not been thoroughly understood. METHOD OF STUDY: Patients with focal or diffuse AM were recruited. Ser…

PURPOSE: The objective of this study was to develop a deep learning model, using the ConvNeXt algorithm, that can effectively differentiate between ovarian endometriosis cysts (OEC) and benign mucinous cystadenomas (MC) by analyzing ultraso…

Atmospheric fine particulate matter (PM2.5) can harm various systems in the human body. Due to limitations in the current understanding of epidemiology and toxicology, the disease types and pathogenic mechanisms induced by PM2.5 in various …

INTRODUCTION AND HYPOTHESIS: The objective was to investigate the correlation between endogenous vaginal microecological alterations and female pelvic organ prolapse (POP). METHODS: Patients who underwent vaginal hysterectomy were retrospe…

INTRODUCTION: Nucleotide-binding domain (NOD)-like receptors (NLRs) are expressed in the endometrium, and involved in modulating the female innate immune responses. There are conceptus-endometrial interactions during pregnancy, which ensure…

Endometrial large cell neuroendocrine carcinoma (LCNEC) is a highly malignant tumor that presents with neuroendocrine function. It is difficult to diagnose at an early stage. Moreover, the diagnosis depends on the pathological and immunohis…

OBJECTIVES: We aimed to explore the epidemiological characteristics of suspected adenomyosis within a physical examination population in China. DESIGN: A retrospective, nested case-control study; we matched healthy people and those with po…

BACKGROUND: Endometrial carcinoma (EC) is a prevalent gynecological malignancy, necessitating accurate preoperative staging for effective treatment planning. This study explores the application value of multi-parameter MRI in diagnosing and…

The gut microbiota has been implicated in the context of sexual maturation during puberty, with discernible differences in its composition before and after this critical developmental stage. Notably, there has been a global rise in the prev…

ETHNOPHARMACOLOGICAL RELEVANCE: Gynecological disorders have the characteristics of high incidence and recurrence rate, which sorely affects female's health. Since ancient times, traditional Chinese medicine (TCM), especially tonic medicine…

Linear endoscopic ultrasonography (EUS) has been extensively utilized as a novel diagnostic and therapeutic modality across various fields. However, there have been relatively few studies focusing on lower gastrointestinal lesions. The aim …

Autophagy is an evolutionarily conserved cellular recycling process that maintains cellular homeostasis. Despite extensive research in endocrine contexts, the role of autophagy in ovarian and testicular steroidogenesis remains elusive. The …

Endometriosis is a prevalent and chronic inflammatory gynecologic disorder affecting approximately 6-10% of women globally, and has been associated with an increased risk of cancer. Nevertheless, previous studies have been hindered by metho…

BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE: While there is evidence that gut microbiota (GM) and blood metabolites are associated with ovarian cancer (OC), the precise mechanisms underlying this relationship are still unclear. This study used Mendelian randomi…

Multiple primary malignant neoplasms are a rare gynecologic malignancy; particularly, cases originating from the heterologous organs, such as the ovary and cervix. Here, we report a case of two primary malignant neoplasms in a patient who h…

BACKGROUND: Endometriosis (EMS) is acknowledged as a risk factor for the development of endometrial cancer (EC), although the precise molecular mechanisms that underpin this association have yet to be fully elucidated. The primary objective…

BACKGROUND: To identify incidence and underlying risk factors for unsuspected placenta accreta spectrum (PAS) and compare the maternal outcomes between suspected and unsuspected cases in three large academic referral centers. METHODS: A re…

STUDY QUESTION: Which independent factors influence ICSI outcomes in patients with complete azoospermia factor c (AZFc) microdeletions? SUMMARY ANSWER: In patients with complete AZFc microdeletions, the sperm source, male LH, the type of i…

Endometriosis is a prevalent gynecological condition characterized by chronic pelvic pain, dysmenorrhea, and infertility, affecting ≈176 million women of reproductive age worldwide. Current treatments, including pharmacological and surgical…
