Early-stage endometrial cancer frequently shares overlapping clinical presentations and sonographic features with benign endometrial disorders, making early detection challenging. This retrospective study evaluated clinical characteristics,…

INTRODUCTION: Acupuncture has been explored as a potential intervention for POR; however, high-quality evidence is limited. This multicenter randomized trial evaluated the effect of acupuncture on the number of oocytes retrieved following c…

INTRODUCTION: Diminished ovarian reserve (DOR) is known to reduce the likelihood of achieving pregnancy or live births in women undergoing in vitro fertilization and embryo transfer (IVF-ET). Acupuncture maybe effective for DOR, but current…

BACKGROUND: Endometriosis is a hormone-related gynecological disease and characterized by the invasion of endometrial cells outside the uterine cavity. OBJECTIVE: This study aimed to investigate the impact of goserelin acetate implants on …

OBJECTIVES: To evaluate the value of radiomics based on ultrasound in differentiating uterine fibroids (UFs) and uterine adenomyomas (AMs) and construct a noninvasive tool for this differentiation. METHODS: The clinical data and ultrasound…

BACKGROUND: Endometriosis is a common disease for women of reproductive ages. Individuals with accelerated biological aging are at a higher risk of developing various diseases, however, the effect of biological aging on the risk of endometr…

Various pathologies, environmental factors, and medications can cause anal distension. Sacrococcygeal chordoma is a rare tumor originating from the remnants of the primitive spinal cord. Nonetheless, only a few case reports of anal swelling…

BACKGROUND: The echo pattern constitutes an ultrasonic index that reflects the characteristics of the endometrium across various phases of the menstrual cycle. However, consensus of endometrial echo pattern and pregnancy outcomes is lacking…

BACKGROUND: Adenomyosis is a chronic inflammatory gynecological disorder closely linked with diminished fertility potential that poses significant challenges in pharmacological management. Salvia miltiorrhiza (Danshen, DS), a traditional Ch…

PURPOSE: To study the global, regional and national burden and trend of primary and secondary infertility, by sex and sociodemographic index (SDI), over the period 1990-2021. METHODS: Data on the prevalence and disability-adjusted life yea…

Adenomyosis (AM) is recognized as a complex gynecological and endocrine disorder that contributes to infertility and elevates the risk of pregnancy complications; however, its underlying genetic basis remains unidentified. This study aimed …

Adenomyosis (AM) is characterized as a chronic and progressive disorder with limited therapeutic strategies available. Myometrial fibrosis is a prominent pathological feature of AM, yet the underlying molecular mechanisms remain elusive. Th…

Oocyte aging is closely related to a decline in female fertility, accompanied by increased reactive oxygen species levels and changes in protein posttranslational modifications. However, the role of protein palmitoylation in oocyte aging ha…

OBJECTIVE: We aimed to analyze the correlation between the neutrophil-to-lymphocyte ratio (NLR), and the treatment outcomes for infertile women after in vitro fertilization (IVF) using embryo transfer technology. METHODS: This retrospectiv…

BACKGROUND: Poor ovarian response (POR) is a pathological condition characterized by inadequate ovarian response to gonadotropin stimulation in patients undergoing in vitro fertilization and embryo transfer. It represents a primary cause of…

OBJECTIVES: Adenomyosis (AM) is a chronic disorder that significantly impacts women's health and quality of life worldwide, particularly by causing progressive impairment in fertility. This study aimed to summarize and visualize the literat…

OBJECTIVE: The objective of this study was to investigate the correlation between various factors and the clinical outcomes of Intrauterine Insemination (IUI) in both young and aged patients, aiming to provide a theoretical basis for clinic…

BACKGROUND: Non-invasive chromosome screening (NICS) and trophectoderm biopsy preimplantation genetic testing for aneuploidy (TE-PGT) were both applied for embryo ploidy detection, However, the cumulative live birth rates (CLBR) of NICS and…

BACKGROUND: Primary vaginal cancer is a rare condition. Some studies have revealed an increased risk of vaginal cancer among patients who have undergone hysterectomy for premalignant and malignant cervical disease. However, there is limited…

Adenomyosis is a benign uterine disorder that is associated with female infertility, a reduced clinical pregnancy rate and a high risk of miscarriage. Solute carrier family 38 member a2 (SLC38A2) is a glutamine (Gln) transporter that serves…

Insulin-like growth factor binding protein 7 (IGFBP7) serves as a crucial extracellular matrix protein, exerting pivotal roles in both physiological and pathological processes. This comprehensive review meticulously delineates the structura…

AIM: To investigate the adverse pregnancy outcomes associated with endometriosis and its influencing factors. METHODS: A total of 188 endometriosis patients who gave birth at our hospital between June 2018 and January 2021 were screened fo…

OBJECTIVE: To compare the spontaneous pregnancy rates between dydrogesterone and Gonadotropin-releasing hormone agonist (GnRH-a) treatments in patients with endometriosis stage III and IV after laparoscopy. METHODS: The clinical data of pa…

BACKGROUND: Many factors were reported associated with the pregnancy rate of intrauterine insemination (IUI), which played key role is still debated. AIMS: The aim of this study was to explore related clinical pregnancy outcome factor in I…

BACKGROUND: Placement of a levonorgestrel-releasing intrauterine system (LNG-IUS) is an effective treatment for adenomyosis, especially for patients who have severe dysmenorrhea symptoms but a strong desire to preserve fertility. Nonetheles…
