BACKGROUND: Extrapelvic endometriosis occurring at skeletal muscle and joint sites is not rare and is prone to delayed diagnosis and inappropriate treatment. Herein, endometriosis of the skeletal muscular system (ESMS) is systematically rev…
BackgroundTuberculosis (TB), a multisystemic disease with protean presentation, remains a major global health problem. Although concurrent pulmonary tuberculosis (PTB) and extrapulmonary tuberculosis (EPTB) cases are commonly observed clini…
PurposeThis study aimed to compare the variability of the uterus during the menses phase (MP), follicular phase (FP), and luteal phase (LP) of the menstrual cycle using intravoxel incoherent motion diffusion-weighted imaging (IVIM-DWI).Meth…
BackgroundStudies have shown that supplementation with recombinant human GH (rh-GH) during ovarian stimulation (OS) may improve the ovarian response and clinical outcomes of IVF. However, it remains unclear whether GH is associated with the…
Fetal growth restriction (FGR) is a pathological state that represents a fetus's inability to achieve adequate growth during pregnancy. Several maternal, placental, and fetal factors are likely associated with FGR etiology. FGR is linked to…

BackgroundTo assess the impact of the luteinizing hormone level on ovulation trigger day (LHOTD) on in vitro fertilization (IVF) outcomes in gonadotropin-releasing hormone (GnRH) agonist and antagonist regimens during fresh embryo transfer …
The anatomical positions of pelvic floor organs are maintained by ligaments and muscles. Stress urinary incontinence (SUI) occurs when the pelvic floor tissues are repeatedly stimulated by excessive mechanical tension that exceeds the beari…
Abstract Background Polypoid endometriosis (PEM) is rare benign tumors with morphological features resembling malignant tumors. We aimed to analyze the clinicopathological features and outcomes of patients with PEM, and compare them to case…
The comorbid mechanism of depression and chronic pain has been a research hotspot in recent years. Until now, the role of purinergic signals in the comorbid mechanism of depression and chronic pain has not been fully understood. This review…
In the complex and dynamic processes of replication, transcription, and translation of DNA molecules, a large number of replication errors or damage can occur which lead to obstacles in the development process of germ cells and result in a …
Curcumae Longae Rhizoma (turmeric), Curcumae Radix and Curcumae Rhizoma are derived from the Curcuma species, and have gradually become three of the most commonly used medicinal herbs in China due to their different origins, processing meth…
OBJECTIVES: This case report presented cases with spontaneous hemoperitoneum during pregnancy. CASE REPORT: Case 1 presented with acute abdominal pain with signs of shock. Cases 2 and 3 both presented with stable vital signs and the sudden…
BACKGROUND: Endometriosis cause decreases in life quality and pelvic pain in reproductive-age women. Methylation abnormalities played a functional role in the progression of endometriosis, this study aimed to explore the mechanisms mediated…
Microorganisms are ubiquitous in the human body; they are present in various areas including the gut, mouth, skin, respiratory tract, and reproductive tract. The interaction between the microbiome and reproductive health has become an incre…
BackgroundThis randomized controlled trial (RCT) aimed to compare two different routes of postoperative estrogen treatment on the improvements of menstruation, postoperative endometrial thickness, and fertility outcomes in patients with mod…
ObjectiveTo identify the optimal triage procedure for endometrial biopsies in postmenopausal women.MethodsThe clinical information of 470 postmenopausal women with endometrial biopsy results and postmenopausal bleeding (PMB) and/or transvag…
RATIONALE: Uterine artery spontaneous rupture is a rare but potentially life-threatening complication during pregnancy and puerperium. The lack of typical symptoms makes it difficult to diagnose, which can result in serious consequences for…
The present study identified a novel upstream long chain non-coding (lncRNA) NEAT1/miR-141-3p/HTRA1 axis that regulated the activation of NLR family pyrin domain containing 3 (NLRP3) inflammasome to modulate endometriosis (EM) development. …
BackgroundThe disease burden and incidence of placenta accreta are increasing worldwide. The morbidity and mortality associated with undiagnosed placenta accreta are both high, highlighting the important of early diagnosis and intervention.…
BackgroundProgesterone receptor (PGR) is a master regulator of uterine function through antagonistic and synergistic interplays with oestrogen receptors. PGR action is primarily mediated by activation functions AF1 and AF2, but their physio…
BackgroundPelvic organ prolapse (POP) is a common degenerative disease among females. We previously reported that advanced glycation end products (AGEs), compounds derived from nonenzymatic glycoxidation reactions, accumulated in the human …
