BackgroundDiminished ovarian reserve (DOR) is clinically characterized by a decrease in the number of available ovarian follicles and a decline in the quality of oocytes, accompanied by hormonal changes. Low quality of DOR oocyte leads to i…

OBJECTIVE: To investigate the causal effect of immune cells on endometriosis (EMS), we performed a Mendelian randomization analysis. METHODS: Mendelian randomization (MR) uses genetic variants as instrumental variables to investigate the c…

BACKGROUND: Endometriosis is a chronic inflammatory disease of women during their reproductive years. The relationship between the severity and location of endometriosis and menstruation, ovulation, reproductive function, and mode of delive…

BackgroundExercise is increasingly being promoted as an effective treatment for primary dysmenorrhea (PD). This study aims to conduct a comprehensive network meta-analysis (NMA) of randomized controlled trials to identify the optimal types …

Early pregnancy loss (EPL) is a common event in human reproduction and is classified into histological subtypes such as hydropic abortion (HA) and hydatidiform moles, including complete hydatidiform moles (CHMs) and partial hydatidiform mol…

PurposeThe aim of this study was to investigate the risk factors of postmenopausal special uterine leiomyoma pathological types or leiomyosarcoma and to develop a nomogram for clinical risk assessment, ultimately to reduce unnecessary surgi…

Objective: The aim of this study is to assess the postoperative efficacy of the combined administration of dienogest (DNG) and gonadotropin-releasing hormone agonists (GnRH-a) in patients diagnosed with endometriosis (EMS), while acknowledg…

Background: Perimenopausal dysfunctional uterine bleeding (PDUB) is a common gynaecological disease with various clinical treatment options. The objective of this work was to investigate the clinical effect of female progesterone sequential…

BackgroundPrior research showed that elevated serum uric acid (SUA) levels in women with polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) before in vitro fertilization or intracytoplasmic sperm injection (IVF/ICSI) treatment can lead to a lower rate of liv…

IntroductionThe potential role of the endometrial microbiota in the pathogenesis of endometrial polyps (EPs) warrants further investigation, given the current landscape of limited and inconclusive research findings. We aimed to explore the …

Polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) is a prevalent endocrine disorder and metabolic abnormality disease that mainly affects women of reproductive age. LINC00173, a novel long noncoding RNA (lncRNA), has emerged as an important factor in the de…

Abstract Objective This study aims to investigate the expression disparities of Nuclear Receptor Coactivator 4 (NCOA4) in endometriosis (EMS) patients, assessing its diagnostic potential. It also elucidate the correlation between the immu…

BackgroundThe role of sperm DNA fragmentation index (DFI) in fertility remains controversial. Herein, we analyzed its association with semen parameters, embryonic development, and pregnancy outcomes after in vitro fertilization (IVF) treatm…

The intensive study and investigation of neuroprotective therapy for central nervous system (CNS) diseases is ongoing. Due to shared mechanisms of neurodegeneration, a neuroprotective approach might offer benefits across multiple neurologic…

BACKGROUND Previous studies have suggested that autophagy, a cellular process regulated by ATG7, plays a critical role in ovarian physiology and pathology. In this study, our objective was to examine ATG7 levels in women with and without po…

The goal of the study was to explore the mechanism underlying the progression from abnormal uterine bleeding with ovulatory dysfunction (AUB-O) to AUB with atypical hyperplasia/malignancy (AUB-M). AUB-O, AUB-M and control endometrial tissue…

BackgroundThe cumulative live birth rate (CLBR) has been regarded as a key measure of in vitro fertilization (IVF) success after a complete treatment cycle. Women undergoing IVF face great psychological pressure and financial burden. A pred…

OBJECTIVE: To investigate the characteristics of clinical trials on traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) or natural medicines for treating endometriosis, aiming to inform future clinical practice and the development of new effective drugs. M…

BackgroundPrevious research has demonstrated that exposure to individual heavy metals elevates the incidence rate of congenital heart defects (CHDs). However, there is a paucity of data concerning the relationship between combined exposure …

The distinctive three-dimensional architecture, biological functionality, minimal immunogenicity, and inherent biodegradability of small intestinal submucosa extracellular matrix materials have attracted considerable interest and found wide…

Macroautophagy, commonly referred to as autophagy, is an essential cytoprotective mechanism that plays a significant role in cellular homeostasis. It has emerged as a promising target for drug development aimed at treating various cancers a…

The therapeutic efficacy of drugs is determined, to a certain extent, by the efficiency of drug delivery. The low efficiency of drug delivery systems (DDSs) is frequently associated with serious toxic side effects and can even prove fatal i…

Autophagy has emerged as an important process of cell metabolism. With continuous in-depth research on autophagy, TFEB has been a key transcription factor regulating autophagy levels in recent years. Studies have established that TFEB regul…

Extracellular vesicles (EVs) exert a significant influence not only on the pathogenesis of diseases but also on their therapeutic interventions, contingent upon the variances observed in their originating cells. Mitochondria can be transpor…
