High throughput sequencing is a powerful tool for processing large amounts of DNA and RNA samples in batches. Proper experimental design and statistical methods are required to mitigate systematic technical factors due to differences in bat…
PurposeThe International Federation of Gynecology and Obstetric (FIGO) stage is critical to guiding the treatments of ovarian cancer (OC). We tried to develop a model to predict the FIGO stage of OC through machine learning algorithms with …
BackgroundAlthough the cardiometabolic index (CMI) has gained recognition as a new tool for evaluating metabolic health, the relationship between CMI and cardiovascular disease (CVD) remains unclear. This research sought to explore the pote…
Air pollution has reproductive toxicity, while green space could lessen such harmful consequences. However, the current research on the link between air pollution/green space, and endometriosis remains scarce. Therefore, we investigated the…
BackgroundThe potentially risky effects of metabolites of phthalates (mPAEs) on inflammation and immune function have attracted much attention in recent years. However, direct studies on the relationship between these metabolites and the sy…
BACKGROUND: Endometriosis is a chronic gynecological disorder characterized by the presence of endometrial-like tissue outside the uterine cavity, causing chronic pain and infertility. Hypoxia plays a significant role in the progression of …
BACKGROUND: Dysmenorrhea and menstrual disorders caused by endometriosis (EM) and adenomyosis (AM) have significantly affected the quality of life of a large number of women. As a highly effective clinical contraceptive measure, etonogestre…
BACKGROUND: Previous studies have shown that due to the presence of endometrium progesterone resistance in patients with endometriosis, it is considered that higher levels of progesterone may be required to achieve live birth during program…
OBJECTIVES: Endometriosis is a common chronic disease in childbearing women and a major cause of infertility. Our study aimed to identify and validate a novel gene signature for diagnosing endometriosis based on histone-related genes (HRGs)…
ObjectiveThe causative role of gut microbiota in pancreatitis remains unknown. This study aimed to investigate potential causal associations between gut microbiota and pancreatitis, using bidirectional Mendelian randomization (MR) analysis.…
Vulvar lichen sclerosus (VLS) is a chronic skin condition affecting the vulva, causing significant discomfort, but its etiology in prepubertal girls remains poorly understood. VLS presents with itching, irritation, and pain. Recent studies …
Spatial transcriptomics enables in situ molecular profiling, allowing to measure the cellular transcriptional output within the tissue. As the tissue architecture is conserved, spatial domains with specific transcriptional patterns can be i…
ObjectiveTo investigate the benefits of menstrual management in women undergoing hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT), in whom heavy menstrual bleeding (HMB) can be an underestimated bleeding complication.MethodsThis was a retrosp…
BackgroundPolycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) has been extensively studied as a common female endocrine disease. In recent years, the relationship between circadian rhythm and PCOS has gradually drawn attention, although the precise nature of …
BackgroundOvarian cancer is a highly lethal gynecological malignancy, with epithelial ovarian cancer (EOC) being its most common form. Surgery combined with chemotherapy is the standard treatment. Resection completeness significantly impact…
BackgroundOvarian cancer (OV) is the deadliest gynecologic malignancy owing to its late diagnosis and high metastatic propensity. Current biomarkers lack sufficient sensitivity and specificity for the detection of early-stage cancer. To add…
IntroductionPrimary dysmenorrhea (PD) is characterized by pain during the menstrual cycle, affects women's health. Our group developed a traditional Chinese medicine plaster (Wentong plaster, WTT) for the treatment of PD. However, the under…
Infertility poses considerable challenges to both the endocrine system and psychological well-being of affected women. In particular, those undergoing Assisted Reproductive Technology (ART) confront not only physiological demands but also s…
ObjectiveAdvanced gastric cancer remains highly refractory to therapy, with limited immunotherapy efficacy due to tumor microenvironment heterogeneity. Primary cilia, microtubule-based organelles involved in tumor progression, remain insuff…
BACKGROUND: Endometriosis (EMs) is a persistent inflammatory condition whose three main symptoms, mass, pain, and infertility, severely affect female patients of childbearing age. Hu-Po-San (HPS), a preparation consisting of various herbal …
Follicular atresia is a critical physiological process that ensures the selection of high-quality oocytes by eliminating non-viable follicles. In women, 99.9% of follicles undergo atresia naturally, the premature or dysregulated atresia fol…
Mercury, a prevalent heavy metal, negatively impacts oocyte maturation. However, the exact mechanism by which methylmercury chloride (MMC) affects this process remains elusive. The present study found that MMC administration triggered meiot…
OBJECTIVE: To screen for possible pathogenic mutations in polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) patients with diabetes and preliminarily explore the relationship between genotype and phenotype to offer a research basis for PCOS pathogenesis with…
Drug discovery plays a crucial role in medicinal chemistry, serving as the cornerstone for developing new treatments to address a wide range of diseases. This review emphasizes the significance of advanced strategies, such as Click Chemistr…
BackgroundTo compare in-vitro fertilization and embryo transfer (IVF-ET) pregnancy outcomes following endometrial polypectomy using either a manual mechanical hysteroscopic tissue resection device (mHTR) or traditional mechanical resection …
