OBJECTIVE: This study aims to update the latest epidemiology of ovarian cancer. METHODS: Incidence and mortality data of ovarian cancer were extracted from 2 databases, the GLOBOCAN 2022 and the Global Burden of Disease 2021, to analyze ag…
Endometrial carcinoma, a prevailing malignancy of the female reproductive system, exhibits escalating incidence and a trend towards early onset. Hormone therapy serves as a primary choice for fertility preservation and is also considered fo…
OBJECTIVE: Polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) is a leading cause of female infertility, and early pregnancy outcomes in affected women are affected by multiple interactive factors; however, no well-established predictive tools are available. …
The aim of this study was to detect circulating tumor cells (CTCs) in the peripheral blood of patients with cholangiocarcinoma (CCA) using a CTCs sorting technique and to assess the association between CTC counts and patient prognosis. Epit…
INTRODUCTION: Epithelial ovarian cancer (EOC) remains the most lethal gynecological malignancy, and accurate prediction of long-term survival remains challenging. This study aimed to evaluate the prognostic associations of prespecified clin…
BACKGROUND: Early-life exposures may influence long-term reproductive health, but comprehensive population-based evidence remains limited. This study aimed to evaluate the associations between six early-life factors (long-term/recurrent ant…
OBJECTIVE: The aim of this study was to compare the therapeutic efficacy of integrating virtual reality technology with conventional pelvic floor rehabilitation therapy versus conventional therapy alone in postpartum women with myofascial p…
OBJECTIVE: Enhanced Recovery After Surgery (ERAS) protocols have been proven to optimize recovery in various surgical disciplines, including gynecologic surgery. However, their impact on laparoscopic hysterectomy for benign conditions remai…
OBJECTIVE: This retrospective cohort study aimed to evaluate whether a goal-directed weight loss intervention prior to assisted reproductive technology (ART) improves live birth rates compared with immediate in vitro fertilization (IVF) wit…
ObjectiveTo investigate whether prolonged embryo culture increases the risk of gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM) in pregnancies conceived via frozen embryo transfer (FET).Research design and methodsIn this retrospective cohort study, 26 1…

Adenomyosis is a common gynecological disorder that causes heavy menstrual bleeding and chronic pelvic pain. Progestin-based therapy is widely used for long-term management, but irregular uterine bleeding frequently occurs and severely affe…
BACKGROUND: Tuberculosis (TB) is among the top 10 causes of global death, and patient delay is a key factor causing higher mortality. This study intends to analyze the associated factors with TB patient delay. METHODS: Embase, Cochrane Lib…
Metabolic dysfunction-associated steatotic liver disease (MASLD) has become the most prevalent chronic liver disease worldwide, yet no pharmacological therapy has achieved regulatory approval. Flavonoids, plant-derived polyphenols encompass…
BACKGROUND: Non-neoplastic gynecological diseases substantially impact women of childbearing age (WCBA), contributing to global burden. Despite growing awareness, disparities in healthcare access remain widespread across regions and socioec…
Premature ovarian insufficiency (POI) is a significant clinical challenge leading to amenorrhea and infertility in young women. While its etiology is complex, recent research has highlighted aberrant protein glycosylation as a novel and cru…
Endometriosis (EMs) is a prevalent, estrogen-dependent gynecological disorder characterized by the ectopic implantation and proliferation of endometrial-like tissue outside the uterine cavity, affecting approximately 10% of reproductive-age…
Abstract Hypoxia, a state of reduced oxygen availability, drives endometrial disease progression by inducing cellular reprogramming that promotes inflammation, angiogenesis, and aberrant cell survival in endometriosis and endometrial cance…
BACKGROUND: Ovarian endometriomas impair ovarian reserve and fertility in women of reproductive age. Ethanol sclerotherapy is a fertility-preserving alternative to surgery. Nonetheless, predicting cumulative live birth rates after in vitro …
BACKGROUND: Among patients undergoing hysterectomy for benign indications, Black patients experience higher rates of perioperative complications across both abdominal and minimally invasive surgical routes. This disparity persists after adj…
BACKGROUND: IL20RB, interleukin 20 receptor subunit beta, functions as a cytokine receptor subunit coding gene and has been discovered to serve an essential function in human malignancies. However, the link between IL20RB expression, clinic…
INTRODUCTION: Retained products of conception (rPOC) are a common complication following early pregnancy loss (EPL) and may contribute to infertility and delays in subsequent fertility treatment. Oral contraceptive pills (OCPs) are frequent…
Endometriosis is an estrogen-dependent disorder characterized by chronic inflammation, immune dysregulation, and altered hormone metabolism. Although gut microbiota-derived metabolites have been implicated in shaping immune microenvironment…
ObjectiveTo evaluate the impact of adjunctive levonorgestrel-releasing intrauterine device (LNG-IUD) placement on amenorrhea rates and hysterectomy risk following endometrial resection or ablation in women with abnormal uterine bleeding (AU…
BACKGROUND: Adenomyosis (AM) is frequently associated with compromised embryo implantation. The leukemia inhibitory factor (LIF)/signal transducer and activator of transcription 3 (STAT3) signaling pathway is crucial for endometrial recepti…
