BACKGROUND: Trends toward earlier age at menarche, the starting point in women’s reproductive lifespan, have been observed globally. Whether an earlier age at menarche influences Anti-Müllerian hormone (AMH), a clinical indicator of ovarian…

OBJECTIVES: To assess physical activity (PA) levels and associated factors in patients with acute pancreatitis (AP) in Western China. METHODS: This cross-sectional study was conducted from July 2021 to June 2023 at a tertiary hospital in S…

BACKGROUND: The relationship between endometriosis and cardiovascular disease (CVD) risk remains unclear. This study aimed to evaluate the association between endometriosis and CVD risk, to examine whether the association was affected by ag…

BACKGROUND: Deeply infiltrating endometriosis (DIE), characterized by its extrauterine invasion, is strongly associated with chronic pelvic pain (CPP). Peripheral-central sensitization synergistically contribute to the pathogenesis of CPP i…

Endometriosis (EM) affects approximately 10% of women of reproductive age and remains a prevalent estrogen-dependent gynecological disorder with limited therapeutic efficacy and high recurrence rates. Ferroptosis-an iron-dependent, non-apop…

OBJECTIVE: Endometrial cancer (EC) is a common gynecologic malignancy globally, but the role of the intratumoral microbiome remains poorly defined. While microbial dysbiosis is increasingly linked to cancer, the composition, function, and c…

Paediatric burn patients, including those with non-severe burns, have an increased risk of admission to hospital for mental health conditions for many years after the burn, even in children too young at the time of the burn to remember the …

Epithelial ovarian cancer (EOC) is a leading cause of mortality among gynecological malignancies, predominantly due to late-stage diagnoses and complex management challenges. Traditional treatment strategies, primarily centered on extensive…

PURPOSE: This study aimed to investigate the impact of obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) on in vitro fertilization (IVF) and embryo transfer outcomes in infertile patients with polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS). METHODS: We conducted a prospect…

Fibrosis constitutes the principal pathophysiological mediator of pain and infertility manifestations in endometriosis, and the inhibitory factor of the TGF-β pathway, MADH7, makes a vital impact on the progression of fibrosis. Ovarian tumo…

OBJECTIVES: This study aimed to explore potential differences in efficacy between vaginal progesterone (VPG) and VPG + oral progesterone (OPG) for luteal-phase support in hormone replacement therapy-frozen embryo transfer (HRT-FET) cycles. …

BACKGROUND: Imbalances in alkali elements (AEs) and alkaline earth elements (AEEs) cause reproductive disorders. However, it remains unclear whether AEs/AEEs in follicular fluid have a relationship with the serious reproductive disorder kno…

Virulence factor genes (VFGs) play pivotal roles in bacterial infections and have been identified within the human gut microbiota. However, their involvement in chronic diseases remains poorly understood. Here, we establish an expanded VFG …

OBJECTIVE: Additive human menopausal gonadotropin (HMG)/recombinant luteinizing hormone (r-LH) to follicle-stimulating hormone (FSH) can improve pregnancy outcomes in patients with poor ovarian response during assisted reproductive procedur…

Endometriosis-associated adenocarcinoma of the rectum is rare and is usually misdiagnosed as colorectal carcinoma or other gynecological tumors. In the current report, the clinicopathological features of endometriosis-associated adenocarcin…

BACKGROUND: The utilization of a double trigger, involving the co-administration of gonadotropin-releasing hormone agonist (GnRH-a) and human chorionic gonadotropin (hCG) for final oocyte maturation, is emerging as a novel approach in gonad…

BACKGROUND: Semaphorin 3A (Sema3A) is a member of neural guidance factor family well-known for inducing the collapse of nerve cell growth cone and regulating nerve redistribution. It also has been characterized as an immunoregulatory and tu…

PURPOSE: This study aimed to evaluate the comparative reproductive outcomes of ovarian stimulation combined with intrauterine insemination using partner's sperm (OS-IUI) in eumenorrheic and normogonadotropic oligomenorrheic women. METHOD: …

BACKGROUND: Cognitive biases in clinical decision-making significantly contribute to errors in diagnosis and suboptimal patient outcomes. Addressing these biases presents a formidable challenge in the medical field. OBJECTIVE: This study a…

Previous studies have shown that the risk of malignant transformation of endometriosis in premenopausal women is approximately 1%, significantly impacting the overall well-being and quality of life of affected women. Presently, the diagnost…

BACKGROUND: Ensuring women's sexual and reproductive health (SRH) is a fundamental human right and key to 2030 agenda of the UN Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), yet limited evidence exists on SRH in China, including national estimates …
