PurposeThis study evaluates the efficacy of intrauterine hCG perfusion for RIF, as defined by ESHRE 2023 guidelines, highlighting hCG as a cost-effective alternative to other immunotherapies, especially suitable for less developed regions. …
The intestinal microbiota is vast in type and quantity and it plays a critical role in regulating various physiological functions in the host, including intestinal function, immune response and energy metabolism. Existing research shows tha…
BACKGROUND: Nuclear receptor subfamily 4 group A member 3 (NR4A3) is lowly expressed in ectopic endometrium and can be degraded by ubiquitination in vascular endothelial cells. Murine double minute 2 (MDM2) is predicted to be the ubiquitin …
The health of the reproductive system is intricately linked to female fertility and quality of life. There has been a growing prevalence of reproductive system disorders among women, particularly in younger age groups, resulting in signific…
BackgroundAlthough there are several scoring systems currently used to predict the severity of acute pancreatitis, each of them has limitations. Determine the accuracy of a modified Ranson score in predicting disease severity and prognosis …
BackgroundNumerous research have investigated the predictor role of progesterone (P) level on the human Chorionic Gonadotropin (hCG) trigger day of assisted reproductive technology (ART) outcomes. However, the relationship of progesterone l…
IntroductionTriptorelin is available as 1- and 3-month prolonged-release (PR) formulations; at the time of the study, only the former was approved for central precocious puberty (CPP) in China. This study assessed the efficacy and safety of…
Polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) is a common endocrinopathy causing infertility in childbearing women. Progestin-primed ovarian stimulation (PPOS) protocol has recently been used for infertile women. However, whether PPOS provides a signifi…
The endometrial lining of the uterus is essential for women's reproductive health and consists of several different types of epithelial and stromal cells. Although models such as gland-like structures (GLSs) and endometrial assembloids (EnA…
Recent advancements in artificial intelligence have witnessed human-level performance; however, AI-enabled cognitive assistance for therapeutic procedures has not been fully explored nor pre-clinically validated. Here we propose AI-Endo, an…
BackgroundTo assess the impact of the luteinizing hormone level on ovulation trigger day (LHOTD) on in vitro fertilization (IVF) outcomes in gonadotropin-releasing hormone (GnRH) agonist and antagonist regimens during fresh embryo transfer …
Autosomal dominant polycystic kidney disease (ADPKD) has cystic fluid accumulations in the kidneys, liver, pancreas, arachnoid spaces as well as non-cystic fluid accumulations including pericardial effusions, dural ectasia and free fluid in…
ETHNOPHARMACOLOGICAL RELEVANCE: Spatholobi caulis (SC), the dried vine stem of Spatholobus suberectus Dunn, is known as Ji Xue Teng in China, and has long been used as traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) to treat anaemia, menstrual abnormali…
OBJECTIVE: This study evaluated the clinical efficacy of myometrial and endometrial microwave ablation (MEWA) for treating adenomyosis in patients with anemia. METHODS: This retrospective study enrolled 64 patients with adenomyosis who had…
Despite numerous studies indicating an imperative role of vitamin D for reproduction, the importance of vitamin D supplementation on in vitro fertilization (IVF) outcomes remains controversial. We therefore performed this meta-analysis to i…
ObjectiveEthiodized poppy seed oil for hysterosalpingography (HSG) is reported to display some therapeutic effect on infertility, but big a sample-size study under real clinical settings is still lacking to verify the speculation. Thus, thi…
To evaluate the relationship between the initial follicle stimulating hormone (FSH) dose and the number of available cleavage-stage embryos in in vitro fertilization (IVF) cycles.We included 8772 fresh IVF cycles using a GnRH antagonist pro…
Background: Immunotherapy is a promising strategy for ovarian cancer (OC), and this study aims to identify biomarkers related to CD8+ T cell infiltration to further discover the potential therapeutic target. Methods: Three datasets with OC …
ObjectiveTo assess the impact of serum luteinizing hormone (LH) levels on the day of initiation of controlled ovarian stimulation (COS) after pituitary suppression on early pregnancy loss and assisted reproductive technology (ART) outcomes.…
Ovarian cancer is the most common and lethal gynecological tumor in women worldwide. High-grade serous ovarian carcinoma (HGSOC) is one of the histological subtypes of epithelial ovarian cancer, accounting for 70%. It often occurs at later …
Endometrial damage is an important cause of female reproductive problems, manifested as menstrual abnormalities, infertility, recurrent pregnancy loss, and other complications. These conditions are collectively termed "Asherman syndrome" (A…
BackgroundPatients with elevated circulating progesterone concentrations on the day of the human chorionic gonadotropin (hCG) trigger had relatively low implantation rates during assisted reproductive treatments. In this study, we assess th…
Activin A receptor type 1C (ALK7) and its ligand nodal growth differentiation factor (NODAL) serve numerous roles in cancer cells, including regulating cancer invasion, migration and apoptosis. NODAL promotes breast cancer cell apoptosis by…
BackgroundBone morphogenetic protein 2 (BMP2), growth differentiation factor 8 (GDF8) and their functional receptors are expressed in human ovarian follicles, and these two intrafollicular factors play essential roles in regulating follicle…
