OBJECTIVES: Accessory cavitated uterine malformation (ACUM) is a congenital Müllerian duct developmental anomaly. Clinically, it is commonly observed in young women presenting with progressive lower abdominal pain. Due to the small size of …

BACKGROUND: Endometriosis exhibits tissue- and cell-compartment heterogeneity in inflammatory and metabolic activity. We evaluated compartment-specific remodeling in primary endometriosis tissues and used TCGA-UCEC as an independent cancer …

BACKGROUNDS: The preoperative differentiation of borderline ovarian epithelial tumors (BOETs) remains challenging. While systemic inflammatory markers such as the platelet-to-lymphocyte ratio (PLR), neutrophil-to-lymphocyte ratio (NLR), and…

BACKGROUND: Transcutaneous electrical acupoint stimulation (TEAS) is a non-invasive therapy that combines low-frequency neurostimulation with the application of acupoints. Several studies have demonstrated the efficacy of TEAS for post-oper…

Endometriosis diagnosis is often limited by the resolution of conventional imaging techniques (ultrasound/non-targeted MRI) as well as the invasiveness and recurrence risks associated with laparoscopy. To overcome these challenges, we devel…

Emerging evidence implicates per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) in adverse alterations to the follicular microenvironment, yet their potential contribution to diminished ovarian reserve (DOR) remains poorly characterized. This study…

BACKGROUND: Intrauterine adhesions (IUA) are fibrotic scars that impair endometrial regeneration, and compromise fertility. Emerging evidence implicates circular RNAs (circRNAs) in fibrotic remodeling, but it remains unclear how the circRNA…

ETHNOPHARMACOLOGICAL RELEVANCE: Endometriosis (EMs) is a prevalent and challenging gynecological disease and current therapeutic outcomes are suboptimal. Traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) has numerous advantages in treating EMs. Bushen Wen…

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 …

BACKGROUND: Perimenopausal syndrome (PMS) is common, with more than 70% of perimenopausal women experiencing symptoms such as hot flashes and anxiety. As a key regulator of host physiology, the gut microbiota may play an important role in t…

Comprehensive magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) analysis in oncology involves multiple interrelated tasks including volumetric segmentation, grading, staging, and malignancy detection. However, most existing deep learning models are task-spe…

BACKGROUND: Endometriosis is a chronic inflammatory disease linked to infertility. Coagulation-related processes may contribute to lesion persistence and pelvic remodeling, but the relevance of coagulation parameters in women with infertili…

OBJECTIVE: To identify the risk factors associated with postoperative recurrence of unusual (special-type) uterine smooth muscle neoplasia (USMN) and to construct and interpret a machine-learning model for recurrence risk. METHODS: We carr…

BACKGROUND: This study investigates how clinical factors and hormonal levels affect oocyte retrieval in modified natural cycles, aiming to improve understanding and enhance treatment protocols. METHODS: A retrospective analysis of data fro…

Endometriosis (EMS) is characterised by a disrupted peritoneal immune microenvironment where M2 macrophage polarization and impaired phagocytosis promote lesion survival. Single-cell RNA-seq (ScRNAseq) of the peritoneal macrophages from EMS…

BACKGROUND: Few studies comprehensively examined women's life-course reproductive patterns and the risk of dementia. This study aims to examine the association between women's reproductive life sequence and dementia, and to explore the pote…

Combined pulmonary fibrosis and emphysema (CPFE) and lung cancer cast intertwined shadows, yet the molecular nexus binding them remains largely obscured. By integrating high-resolution transcriptomic landscapes, extensive genome-wide associ…

BACKGROUND: Insulin resistance (IR) is a common pathophysiologic feature in patients with polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS). However, there have been no studies investigating the association of IR surrogates with pregnancy outcomes in women …

BACKGROUND: Few previous studies have addressed the impact of COVID-19 infection status on assisted reproductive technology outcomes. The purpose of this study was to assess whether COVID-19 infection affects ovulation induction outcomes an…

Endometriosis is a complex, chronic inflammatory gynecological disorder with estrogen‑dependent characteristics that severely impairs the quality of life of women and potentially leads to infertility. However, its pathogenesis remains poorl…

AIM: Adenomyosis and endometriosis are gynecological conditions with overlapping symptoms but distinct pathologies. Both affect the women's reproductive system, but their interrelation and shared clinical pathways are underexplored. This st…

OBJECTIVE: To investigate the clinical efficacy of levonorgestrel-releasing intrauterine system (LNG-IUS) tail anchoring to the superficial myometrium under hysteroscopic direct vision. METHODS: From March 1, 2017, to March 1, 2022, 206 pa…

RESEARCH QUESTION: Does frozen embryo transfer improve pregnancy outcomes compared with fresh embryo transfer in women with ovarian endometriosis (OEM) undergoing their first IVF/intracytoplasmic sperm injection cycle? DESIGN: A retrospect…

BACKGROUND: Polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) has been extensively studied as a common female endocrine disease. In recent years, the relationship between circadian rhythm and PCOS has gradually drawn attention, although the precise nature o…

OBJECTIVE: Ectopic pregnancy (EP) is a significant global health concern and is associated with maternal mortality and compromised future fertility. This research aims to refine the assessment of EP's global impact and its associated inequa…
