IntroductionCarnitine palmitoyltransferase 1A (CPT1A) is crucial for mitochondrial function, and its dysfunction has been linked to the development of several diseases. However, the role of CPT1A in severe acute pancreatitis (SAP) and its u…
Uterine fibroids are common among women of reproductive age and often recur after treatment. Accurate recurrence prediction is essential for guiding clinical decisions, yet existing models remain inadequate. This study aimed to develop a no…
BackgroundAcute pancreatitis (AP) is an inflammatory disease of the pancreas marked by inflammation and acinar cell necrosis. Scutellariae Barbata (S. Barbata), a traditional Chinese herb for inflammation, has unclear efficacy for AP.Purpos…
Diminished ovarian reserve (DOR) poses significant challenges in reproductive health, with emerging evidence implicating DNA damage repair pathways. While GADD45A is a critical regulator of DNA repair, cell cycle and apoptosis, its role in …
Recent advances in understanding the modulatory functions of gut and gut microbiota on human diseases facilitated our focused attention on the contribution of the gut to the pathophysiological alterations of many extraintestinal organs, inc…
Abstract Introduction Endometriosis (EMS) is an estrogen-dependent inflammatory disorder characterized by immune dysregulation. This condition profoundly affects the quality of life and reproductive health of nearly 200 million women of rep…
This study aimed to evaluate the predictive value of relative change in E2 levels during controlled ovarian stimulation (COS) on embryo development and pregnancy outcomes in assisted reproductive technology (ART). We retrospectively analyze…
BackgroundOil-based contrast medium in hysterosalpingography has been recommended as an approach to improve fertility in recent years. However, this approach has rarely been applied to patients with unknown recurrent implantation failure (R…
Atherosclerosis has an urgent need for new therapeutic targets. Protein kinases orchestrate multiple cellular events in atherosclerosis and may provide new therapeutic targets for atherosclerosis. Here, a protein kinase, WEE1 G2 checkpoint …
BackgroundPulmonary mucinous cystadenoma with ovarian-like stroma has rarely been reported. To the best of our knowledge, only two prior cases have been reported to date.Case presentationA 47-year-old female underwent an 18F-fluorodeoxygluc…
Metabolic disorders are associated with testosterone deficiency, and the cardiometabolic index (CMI) is a recently identified metabolic indicator. The relationship between male biochemical androgen deficiency (MBAD), a precursor to testoste…
BACKGROUND: Endometriosis (EMS) and adenomyosis have adverse effects on women's fertility. In vitro fertilization (IVF) and intracytoplasmic sperm injection (ICSI) are effective treatments for these diseases. Research has shown that differe…
BackgroundPreimplantation genetic testing for chromosomal structural rearrangements (PGT-SR) has been widely utilized to select euploid embryos in patients carrying balanced chromosomal rearrangements (BCRs) by chromosome copy number analys…
BackgroundEndometrial cancer represents a significant health challenge, with rising incidence and complex prognostic challenges. This study aimed to develop a robust predictive model integrating programmed cell death-related genes and advan…
Endometriosis (EMs) is a common gynecological disorder frequently associated with infertility, yet the underlying immune mechanisms remain poorly understood. Sun's Bushen Huayu Formula (BSHYF) has been clinically applied to improve fertilit…
BackgroundThalassemia is a hereditary blood disorder that can impact fertility due to various factors such as iron overload and endocrine disruption. While the effects of iron overload on fertility outcomes in transfusion-dependent thalasse…
UNLABELLED: Endometriosis is a chronic inflammatory disease characterized by pelvic pain and infertility, with oxidative stress playing a key role in its pathogenesis. Although antioxidant supplementation has been proposed as a potential ad…
BackgroundOxidative stress and metabolic disorders significantly contribute to the development of polycystic ovarian syndrome (PCOS). Heme oxygenase-1 (HMOX1) plays a key role in the degradation of heme and the regulation of oxidative stres…
Background: The stress hyperglycemia ratio (SHR) has emerged as a promising biomarker for assessing stress-induced hyperglycemia (SH) but has not been evaluated in patients with acute pancreatitis (AP). This study investigates the role of t…
Progesterone receptor (PR)-mediated progesterone (P4) signaling plays a crucial role in the establishment of uterine receptivity which is the prerequisite for successful embryo implantation in mammals. However, detailed molecular mechanisms…
Advanced maternal age (AMA, ≥35 years) women undergoing assisted reproductive technology (ART) face reduced live birth rates (LBR) and remain a major clinical challenge. In a large randomized trial, Zishen Yutai Pill (ZYP) improved LBR in t…
PurposeWith the rapid advancement of time-lapse culture and artificial intelligence (AI) technologies for embryo screening, pregnancy rates in assisted reproductive technology (ART) have significantly improved. However, clinical pregnancy r…
This study aimed to evaluate the potential of capping protein (actin filament) muscle Z-line subunit β (CAPZB) messenger ribonucleic acid (mRNA) levels as a biomarker for distinguishing low-grade squamous intraepithelial lesions of the cerv…
