Background/Objectives: The diagnosis of endometriosis (EM) remains challenging due to the lack of a perfect diagnostic standard and the poor concordance between clinical symptoms and lesion severity. Although laparoscopy is widely used in c…

OBJECTIVE: To compare dydrogesterone versus levonorgestrel-releasing intrauterine system (LNG-IUS) for abnormal uterine bleeding (AUB) management with long-term follow-up and etiology-stratified analysis. METHODS: This single-center retros…

BACKGROUND: Abnormal angiogenesis plays vital role in the pathogenesis of adenomyosis (AM). Emerging evidence suggests that exosomes derived from endometrial cells can accelerate the progression of AM. In this study, we aim to investigate t…

Recurrent implantation failure (RIF), characterized by repeated failure to achieve clinical pregnancy after embryo transfer, is often associated with abnormal endometrial conditions. However, unexplained RIF is unique in that its underlying…

Aging impairs the regenerative capacity and differentiation potential of human adipose-derived stem cells (hASCs), but the mechanisms underlying their functional decline remain unclear. Through systematic functional assays and in vivo exper…

Endometriosis is a common gynecological disorder characterized by the ectopic growth of endometrium-like tissue outside the uterine cavity and is associated with pelvic pain, infertility, and reduced quality of life. Although several theori…

Per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) are a class of synthetic chemicals notable for their high persistence and extensive applications. With the advancement of detection technologies in recent years, PFAS have been frequently identifie…

Infertility remains a global challenge, with female factors accounting for the majority of cases. Endometrial receptivity (ER), the ability of the endometrium to accept and support embryo implantation, is a critical determinant of successfu…

BackgroundEndometrial thickness (EMT) is a crucial indicator of endometrial receptivity in assisted reproductive technology (ART). However, its relationship with pregnancy outcomes remains unclear, especially across different cycle types su…

BackgroundChronic pain afflicts approximately 20% of the global adult population and is frequently undertreated, with available pharmacologic options often associated with significant long-term adverse effects. Although omega-3 fatty acids …

Adenomyosis (AM), a gynecological disorder that severely affects female reproductive health. AM-associated macrophage (AAM) polarization-induced epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT) is a key driver of AM progression. In this study, we in…

CXC chemokine ligand 8 (CXCL8) has emerged as a critical mediator in tumorigenesis. This study aims to elucidate the role of CXCL8 in the initiation and progression of papillary thyroid carcinoma (PTC). Comprehensive bioinformatic analyses …

BACKGROUND: Endometriosis (EMs) is a common condition that causes dysmenorrhea, chronic pelvic pain, and infertility, affecting millions of women worldwide. Despite the use of assisted reproductive technology, EMs patients often experience …

Background and aimsEnvironmental pollutants, particularly organochlorine insecticides like endosulfan (ENDO), are increasingly linked to liver toxicity and related diseases. Despite its widespread historical use, the mechanisms underlying E…

BackgroundA newly developed technique, Atherogenic Index of Plasma (AIP), is linked to numerous metabolic disorders. Prior researches have indicated strong correlation between AIP and waist circumference (WC), as well as between WC and infe…

BACKGROUND: Endometriosis is a multifaceted disorder with genetic, immune, inflammatory, and multifactorial origins. Vitamin B6 serves as a pivotal coenzyme in various metabolic pathways involving lipids, hemes, nucleic acids, proteins, and…

BackgroundPolycystic ovarian syndrome (PCOS) is a common endocrine and metabolic disease in women. Hyperandrogenaemia (HA) and insulin resistance (IR) are the basic pathophysiological characteristics of PCOS. The aetiology of PCOS has not b…

ObjectiveChronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) is a chronic respiratory disease with high prevalence, morbidity, and mortality. Chuankezhi (CKZ) injection, a Chinese patent medicine, has been commonly used for treating COPD. This stu…

Endometriosis is a multifactorial gynecological disease, with angiogenesis as a key hallmark. The role of exosomal microRNAs (miRNAs) in endometriosis is not well understood. This study investigates differentially expressed exosomal miRNAs …

INTRODUCTION: Endometriosis (EM) is a widely recognized disorder in gynecological endocrinology. Although hormonal therapies are frequently employed for EM, their side effects and outcome limitations underscore the need to explore the genet…

BACKGROUND Complete placenta previa (CPP) is a life-threatening condition with increasing incidence worldwide. This retrospective study investigated the impact of prior cesarean delivery on pregnancy outcomes in women with CPP. MATERIAL AND…

INTRODUCTION: Endometriosis (EMs), manifested by pain and infertility, is a chronic inflammatory disease. The precise pathophysiology of this disease remains uncertain. Insulin-like growth factor-2 mRNA-binding protein 1 (IGF2BP1) and polyp…

PURPOSE: This study aimed to establish a protocol for efficiently isolating and expanding adenomyotic lesion-derived endometrial mesenchymal stem cells (A-eMSCs) in vitro. METHODS: Three different methods-namely, the enzymatic method, the …

Abstract Background Placenta previa leads to dangerous obstetrical outcomes, including obstetrical hemorrhage and preterm birth, and its rate is still increasing.The objective is to analyze the risk factors for placenta previa in nullipar…

Previous ultrasound studies suggest that patients with adenomyosis (AM) exhibit increased uterine cavity stiffness, although direct evidence regarding extracellular matrix (ECM) content and its specific impact on endometrial stiffness remai…
