PURPOSE: To compare the clinical outcomes of extremely poor responders with one or two oocytes who receive in vitro fertilization (IVF) and intracytoplasmic sperm injection (ICSI). METHODS: A retrospective study was carried out on 2572 pat…

Adenomyosis, a prevalent gynecologic disorder affecting women of reproductive age, is characterized by the presence of ectopic endometrial tissue within the myometrium. The involvement and underlying mechanisms of ferroptosis in adenomyosis…

MicroRNAs play crucial roles in regulating inflammatory responses and disease progression. Since its identification on chromosome 17q11.2 in 2005, miR-451 has emerged as a key regulator of multiple physiological and pathological processes. …

BACKGROUND: Emerging evidence suggests that aberrantly expressed microRNAs (miRNAs) participate in endometriosis pathogenesis. miR-1229-5p participates in the pathogenesis of several disease, but its precise role and mechanism in endometrio…

INTRODUCTION: Metabolic syndrome is a serious public health concern across the globe. However, the typical metabolites and mechanisms underlying the decreased fertility related to metabolic syndrome is still elusive. OBJECTIVES: The aim of…

The NOD-like receptor family containing pyridine domain 3 (NLRP3) inflammasome serves as a pivotal mediator of innate immune responses and a central driver of inflammatory processes. Upon detection of pathogenic or danger-associated signals…

Human Methyltransferase-like 16(METTL16) is an independent N6-methyladenosine (m6A) methyltransferase. Previous studies have proven METTL16 been linked with some types of cancers. However, comparative studies of the relevance of METTL16 acr…

OBJECTIVES: To estimate the prevalence of urinary incontinence (UI) and its subtypes among nulliparous Chinese women with associated risk factors. The prevalence of UI among those living in urban or rural communities was also analysed with …

BACKGROUND: Endometriosis can lead to decreased endometrial receptivity, reduced rates of implantation, and diminished ovarian reserve. Currently, more than 50% of infertile women are found to suffer from endometriosis. However the etiology…

Aquaporin-2 (AQP2) is a critical protein involved in water metabolism. It is primarily located in the renal collecting duct cells' apical plasma membranes and intracellular vesicles and regulates the movement of water into and out of cells.…

OBJECTIVE: To systematically review studies on reproductive outcomes following fertility-sparing interventions. METHODS: Various electronic databases were searched and studies reporting reproductive outcomes following fertility-sparing int…

Retroperitoneal ectopic pregnancy is an extremely rare form of ectopic pregnancy that can be life-threatening due to severe intra-abdominal hemorrhage. Retroperitoneal ectopic pregnancy is frequently misdiagnosed because of its atypical loc…

Fertility in women decreases with age, but the molecular basis for age-related, unexplained infertility remains elusive. Here, we reveal distinct transcriptome changes in oocytes and surrounding cumulus cells from women in their mid-thirtie…

OBJECTIVE: In order to examine the impact of belimumab on recurrent spontaneous abortion (RSA) women exhibiting B lymphocyte dysfunction. METHODS: This study conducted a retrospective case-control analysis of RSA patients with confirmed B …

The hyaluronic acid synthase (HAS) family participates in key physiological processes such as follicular development, oocyte maturation, ovulation, and embryo implantation by regulating the synthesis of hyaluronic acid, and plays an importa…

INTRODUCTION: This study aimed to elucidate the molecular mechanisms underlying cervical precancerous lesions by employing bioinformatic approaches to identify key genes and signaling pathways. METHODS: A comprehensive strategy was adopted…

Endometriosis is a chronic condition with limited therapeutic options. The molecular aberrations promoting ectopic attachment and interactions with the local microenvironment sustaining lesion growth have been unclear, prohibiting developme…

Endometriosis is characterized by aberrant epigenetic regulation, and our study reveals that both Ubiquitin Specific Protease 7 (USP7) and DNA methyltransferase 1 (DNMT1) are significantly overexpressed in endometriosis tissues. Functional …

OBJECTIVE: To analyze the effect of autologous platelet-rich plasma (PRP) intrauterine perfusion on the clinical outcomes of frozen-thawed embryo transfer in patients with chronic endometritis. METHODS: A retrospective continuous cohort of…

OBJECTIVE: To investigate whether vaginal and endometrial microbiota impact pregnancy outcomes in frozen embryo transfers (FET) during hormone replacement cycles. METHODS: This retrospective cohort study analyzed 51 first-time FET patients…

PURPOSE: To evaluate the value of mtDNA copy number measurement in spent culture medium of blastocysts for predicting the chance of implantation following single blastocyst transfer (SBT). METHODS: Copy numbers of mtDNA and genomic DNA (gD…

Objectives: To investigate the diagnostic performance of texture analysis using multi-parameter MRI in distinguishing between benign and malignant lesions with ovarian-adnexal magnetic resonance imaging report and data system (O-RADS MRI) s…

Endometriosis is a common estrogen-dependent gynecological disorder characterized by chronic inflammatory responses and frequently associated with clinical infertility. Recent studies have demonstrated that the pathogenesis of this disease …

BACKGROUND: E2 is important in follicular development. During monitoring of stimulated cycles, serum levels of E2 are expected to increase steadily with follicle growth until final maturation. Unexpected E2 decline before triggering is repo…
