BACKGROUND: In clinical practice, scheduling oocyte retrieval is a challenging issue that requires comprehensive consideration of factors such as the woman's age, ovarian response, hormone levels and other variables. Moreover, there is curr…
INTRODUCTION: Primary omental pregnancy (OP) is very rare, and achieving an accurate diagnosis has always been a challenge for obstetricians, gynecologists, and sonographers. Our attempt to utilize intraoperative ultrasonography has facilit…
PROBLEM: The relationship between abortion and endometriosis (EMS) has been inconsistent in previous observational studies and remains controversial. We intended to examine the causal relationship between abortion and EMS. METHODS OF STUDY…
RATIONALE: The coexistence of intrauterine and extrauterine pregnancies is termed heterotopic pregnancy (HP). Most reported cases of HP occur after assisted reproductive technology, and HP in a natural pregnancy (NP) is very rare, often dis…
PURPOSE: This study aimed to compare the clinical pregnancy rates of hysterosalpingography (HSG) with water-based contrast and hysterosalpingo-contrast sonography (HyCoSy) to investigate their impact on fertility outcomes in women with endo…
BACKGROUND: Cervical squamous cell carcinoma (CESC) constitutes a substantial global health burden, especially in resource-limited regions. The identification of reliable biomarkers is critical for developing a clinically applicable nomogra…
OBJECTIVE: To investigate the correlation between preoperative pathologic characteristics and the risk of postoperative recurrence in endometriosis (EMs) patients, and to develop a clinical predictive model. METHODS: A retrospective analys…
PURPOSE: Compare reproductive outcomes between patients with subtle distal fallopian tube abnormalities (SDFTA) and unexplained infertility (UI) undergoing in vitro fertilization (IVF), exploring influencing factors. METHODS: This retrospe…
Emerging evidence suggests that microbiota dysbiosis plays a critical role in the pathogenesis of endometrial cancer (EC), a leading cause of cancer-related deaths in women globally. However, few studies have simultaneously examined both th…
Liver fibrosis is induced by persistent stimulation of various factors, resulting from complex multicellular interactions and multifactorial networks. Without intervention, it can progress to cirrhosis and even liver cancer. Current underst…
OBJECTIVE: To evaluate the early pregnancy loss (EPL) rates in women with and without low molecular weight heparin (LMWH) treatment during early pregnancy. METHODS: A retrospective, non-randomized study was conducted at Guangzhou Women and…
Endometriosis is a chronic inflammatory estrogen-dependent inflammatory disorder. Theobromine has been implicated in diverse health benefits, including anti-inflammatory and vasodilatory properties. However, the precise association between …
Objective: To analysis the safety and feasibility of laparoscopic total hysterectomy in patients with obliterated rectouterine pouch. Methods: A retrospective analysis was conducted on 197 patients who underwent laparoscopic total hysterect…
Granulosa cell (GC) dysfunction contributes to diminished ovarian reserve (DOR). We collected GC and follicular fluid samples from the patients of normal ovarian reserve (NOR) and DOR. RNA-seq of GCs showed that cholesterol/sterol metabolis…
Adenomyosis, characterized by clinical intractability, significantly impacts female fertility and life quality due to the absence of definitive diagnostic markers and effective treatment options. The invagination theory is a primary hypothe…
OBJECTIVE: The objective of this meta-analysis is to provide a comprehensive and up-to-date assessment of the prevalence of endometriosis and adenomyosis, addressing the limitations of existing research data and evaluating the quality of th…
AIM: Infertility is a growing global health issue affecting millions worldwide. While endometriosis, polycystic ovarian syndrome (PCOS) and unexplained infertility are recognized as the major contributors, their specific burden and impact o…
Hysteroscopic myomectomy is the first-line treatment for the removal of submucosal myoma in women facing fertility requirements. However, in the face of large diameter type 2 submucosal myoma, patients are at greater risk of complications s…
PURPOSE: Endometriosis (EM) and recurrent spontaneous abortion (RSA) exhibit clinical associations, yet their shared molecular mechanisms remain unclear. This study aimed to identify shared molecular mechanisms and potential hub genes under…
BACKGROUND: Cryoablation is a minimally invasive treatment, with limited research on uterine diseases. This paper provides a review of image-guided cryoablation for the treatment of gynecologic diseases, such as uterine myoma, abdominal wal…
OBJECTIVE: IVF/ICSI is associated with an increased risk of placenta accreta spectrum disorders (PAS). Invasive PAS can result in significant adverse maternal and fetal outcomes. This study investigates the impact of IVF/ICSI on the severit…
OBJECTIVE: To evaluate the effect of prior uterine cavity procedures on clinical and neonatal outcomes in patients undergoing first-time in vitro fertilization-embryo transfer with donor sperm (IVF-ET with DS). METHODS: This retrospective …
BACKGROUND: Adenomyosis is a common gynecological condition associated with chronic pelvic pain, menorrhagia, and infertility. High-intensity focused ultrasound (HIFU) has gained attention as a noninvasive treatment modality. However, monot…
Cancer remains the leading cause of mortality worldwide, and the emergence of drug resistance has made the identification of new therapeutic targets imperative. Lactate, traditionally viewed as a byproduct of glycolysis with limited ATP-pro…
RATIONALE: Adenomyoma of the broad ligament is rare. Owing to the absence of typical clinical signs and imaging methods, preoperative diagnosis is challenging, and it is mainly diagnosed through surgical pathology. PATIENT CONCERNS: The pa…
