Endometriosis (EMs) is a common disease among women of reproductive age, and as of now, the clinical understanding of the etiology of this disease remains unclear. The occurrence of EMs has a profound impact on the reproductive health of wo…

OBJECTIVES: The objective of this study was to investigate the glycolytic activity of adenomyosis, which is characterized by malignant biological behaviors including abnormal cell proliferation, migration, invasion, cell regulation, and epi…

BACKGROUND: Ovarian endometriotic cysts (OEC) represent the primary manifestation of endometriosis, constituting a hormonally dependent inflammatory disorder in gynecology. It significantly affects the quality of life and reproductive healt…

PurposeTo determine the impact of polycystic ovary syndrome on in vitro fertilization/intracytoplasmic sperm injection and embryo transfer outcomes while analyzing the influencing factors.Patients and methodsA retrospective cohort study com…

BackgroundAn important factor in the pathogenesis of polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) is chronic low-grade inflammation. However, the exact pathophysiology of PCOS is currently unknown, which makes clinical diagnosis and the development of …

While adenomyosis is commonly associated with a mild risk of thrombotic complications, the presence of additional thrombophilia factors can increase this risk, particularly in individuals with severe symptoms and elevated CA125 levels.

Leonurine is an alkaloid unique to the Leonurus genus, which has many biological activities, such as uterine contraction, anti-inflammation, anti-oxidation, regulation of cell apoptosis, anti-tumor, angiogenesis, anti-platelet aggregation, …

Sexual dimorphism in temporomandibular disorders (TMDs) and their comorbidity with migraine are important phenomena observed in clinics. TMDs are the most prevalent orofacial pain conditions with jaw joint and masseter muscle dysfunction. M…

BackgroundMelatonin, a hormone found in various bodily fluids and cells, is known for its potent antioxidative, anti-apoptotic, and endocrine regulatory properties. This study aimed to analyze melatonin levels in patients with diminished ov…

Melatonin plays a critical role in regulating embryo attachment in ruminants. While numerous studies have investigated its effects on early embryo development in vitro, the precise mechanisms by which melatonin influences the receptivity of…

In various hyperproliferative disorders, damaged mitochondria can release mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) into the cytoplasm, activating the cGAS-STING signaling pathway and subsequent immune imbalances. Our previous research has demonstrated tha…

ETHNOPHARMACOLOGICAL RELEVANCE: Pingchong Jiangni recipe (PJR) is often used in the treatment of endometriosis (EM). This formula has been clinically validated by the State Administration of Traditional Chinese Medicine Key Specialties Coll…

Objective: A biological system's internal morphological structure or function can be changed as a result of the mechanical effect of focused ultrasound. Pulsed low-intensity focused ultrasound (LIFU) has mechanical effects that might induce…

BackgroundsCancer antigen 125 (CA125) is widely used for screening ovarian cancer (OC), yet its effectiveness remains debated. Potential factors may include ineffective cut-off value for CA125 in screening, as well as a lack of consideratio…

ObjectiveTo investigate the implications of serum hsa_circ_0007534 levels in ovarian cancer (OC) patients.MethodsA retrospective analysis was conducted on the clinical data of 102 OC patients, and 102 healthy controls (HCs) were included in…

ObjectiveThe aim of this study was to investigate whether the base of the tongue harbours a transformation zone (TZ), i.e., an initiation site for papillomavirus infection, analogous to that in the uterine cervix by examining the histologic…

Vaginal atresia is a rare obstructive disease of the reproductive tract. It is characterized by the absence or underdevelopment of the vaginal canal and results in various clinical manifestations. Hysterectomy can physically and mentally bu…

BACKGROUND: Adenomyosis (AM) is a benign uterine disease characterized pathologically by the invasion of endometrial tissue into the myometrium. The pathogenesis of AM is still far from clear. Although the gut microbiome and metabolomics ar…

Acute pancreatitis (AP) is a common and potentially life-threatening inflammatory disease of the pancreas. Reactive oxygen species (ROS) play a key role in the occurrence and development of AP. With increasing ROS levels, the degree of oxid…

A biological process called epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT) allows epithelial cells to change into mesenchymal cells and acquire some cancer stem cell properties. EMT contributes significantly to the metastasis, invasion, and develo…

OBJECTIVE: To investigate the association between carbohydrate antigen 125 (CA125) level and adenomyosis treatment failure (TF) after uterine artery embolization (UAE). METHODS: We evaluated 224 patients with symptomatic adenomyosis who un…

Water-based and oil-based contrast media are both widely used in clinical practice for patients receiving hysterosalpingography (HSG). However, minor controversy exists about whether the oil-based contrast medium has a superior fertility-en…

BACKGROUND: Uterine contractions may interfere with embryo implantation in assisted reproductive technology. To reduce these contractions and improve success rates, the oxytocin antagonist atosiban has been suggested for administration duri…

BackgroundSignificant lower genital tract (LGT) dysbiosis and an associated lower rate of clinical pregnancy after in vitro fertilization-frozen embryo transfer (IVF-FET) among polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) patients have been previously …
