BACKGROUNDS: Abnormal cleavage (ABNCL) in early human embryos is a frequent phenomenon associated with impaired developmental competence and reduced reproductive potential. However, the clinical determinants of ABNCL and its subtypes remain…
PURPOSE: Adenomyosis and endometriosis are both recognized as etiological factors in the development of dysmenorrhea; however, their respective contributions to this condition remains ambiguous. This study aims to examine the distinct contr…
BACKGROUND: Ovarian clear cell cancer (OCCC) is a pathological type of ovarian cancer. OCCC responds poorly to platinum-based chemotherapy drugs and immunotherapy. Currently, there is a lack of targeted drugs for OCCC. It is very urgent to …
PURPOSE: Zygotes with 2.1 pronuclei (2.1PN) present with two normal-sized pronuclei, and an additional smaller pronucleus, that is approximately smaller than two thirds the size of a normal pronucleus. It remains unclear whether the additio…
Background: Ovarian clear cell carcinoma (OCCC) is the most common pathological type of ovarian cancer associated with endometriosis. The effect of endometriosis on the prognosis of ovarian clear cell carcinoma remains controversial. This s…
BACKGROUND: Ovarian clear cell carcinoma (OCCC) is a unique subtype of ovarian epithelial ovarian cancer. The number of chemotherapy cycles for early-stage patients is still debated. This study aimed to evaluate whether at least 4 cycles of…
This study was to evaluate whether Intracytoplasmic sperm injection (ICSI) can improve the quality of embryo in patients with poor-quality embryos in the previous In-vitro fertilization (IVF) cycle, which was cancelled before transfer. This…
BACKGROUND: Cervical pregnancy is increasing in morbidity, and a definite diagnosis in early stages is challenging due to its specific onset site. Surgery is the mainstay of treatment for cervical pregnancy, but it may result in the loss of…
ETHNOPHARMACOLOGICAL RELEVANCE: Guizhi Fuling decoction (GZFL decoction) is a famous formula in the Synopsis of the Golden Chamber, which has a long history in treating endometriosis. However, its exact mechanism remains unclear. AIM OF ST…
PURPOSE: The aim of this study was to determine the correlation between uterine diameters and menstrual abdominal pain intensity in patients with and without endometriosis (EM), and the independent influence of EM on the pain intensity. ME…
Preimplantation embryonic lethality is a rare cause of primary female infertility. It has been reported that variants in the transducin-like enhancer of split 6 (TLE6) gene can lead to preimplantation embryonic lethality. However, the incid…
BACKGROUND: The purpose of this study was to assess the risk factors associated with the development of tubo-ovarian abscesses in women with ovarian endometriosis cysts. METHODS: This retrospective single-center study included 176 women: 4…
Abstract Background: The purpose of this study was to assess the risk factors associated with the development of tubo-ovarian abscesses in women with ovarian endometriosis cysts. Methods: This retrospective single-center study included 176…
Guizhi Fuling Capsules is a new-type traditional Chinese medicine preparation made by modern process method. It was widely used to treat uterine fibroids, pelvic inflammation, dysmenorrhea, endometriosis, mammary gland hyperplasia and other…
Although a putative role for transforming growth factor-β (TGFB) signalling in the pathogenesis of human endometrial cancer has long been proposed, the precise function of TGFB signalling in the development and progression of endometrial ca…
The smooth muscle layer of the uterus (ie, myometrium) is critical for a successful pregnancy and labor. We have shown that the conditional deletion of TGFβ type 1 receptor (TGFBR1) in the female reproductive tract leads to remarkable smoot…
