The central nervous system regulates glandular secretions by modulating visceral organ functions. However, the anatomical and functional connections between the brain and digestive enzyme-producing pancreatic acinar cells remain poorly defi…

BackgroundEndometrial fibrosis can disrupt the uterine junctional zone and lead to infertility. Accurate and noninvasive evaluation of junctional zone alterations is important to clinical treatment. Although conventional T2-weighted imaging…

Endometriosis-associated ovarian cancer (EAOC) is a rare subtype of ovarian cancer arising from the malignant transformation of endometriosis (EMS). Despite growing clinical awareness, its underlying pathogenic mechanisms are not fully unde…

Endometriosis is a common gynecological disease that can cause pelvic adhesions. Severe adhesions increase the difficulty of surgery, resulting in prolonged operation time, increased intraoperative bleeding, and increased complications such…

Massive abdominal wall defects resulting from radical abdominal wall endometriosis (AWE) resection present a major reconstructive challenge. This study aims to assess feasibility and short-term safety of a standardized retromuscular-onlay d…

Endometriosis is a benign yet invasive disease characterized by ectopic endometrial growth and immune remodeling. While emerging evidence implicates cellular senescence in disease progression, the underlying mechanisms remain largely undefi…

Endometriosis is characterized by progressive fibrosis and limited therapeutic options. Cuproptosis, a copper-dependent form of regulated cell death, has been implicated in multiple pathological conditions, but its relevance to fibroblast-m…

BackgroundDisrupted sleep and shift work are linked to multiple adverse health outcomes, but their association with reproductive endocrine disorders (REDs) and underlying mechanisms remain unclear. Understanding this relationship is crucial…

To evaluate the effectiveness of subendometrial autologous platelet-rich plasma (PRP) injections in improving endometrial thickness (EMT) and pregnancy outcomes in women with refractory thin endometrium. This prospective, single-arm, self-c…

ObjectiveThis study aims to identify the most diagnostically valuable features among the 11 MRI features of Placenta accreta spectrum (PAS) described in the joint consensus statement by the Society of Abdominal Radiology (SAR) and the Europ…

BackgroundUnexplained recurrent implantation failure (URIF) represents a complex and challenging condition in reproductive medicine, while the role of non-criteria antiphospholipid syndrome antibodies in its pathogenesis remains unclear. As…

BACKGROUND: Insulin resistance (IR) is a key metabolic disturbance that adversely affects assisted reproductive technology (ART) outcomes. In women with polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS), IR has been well documented to impair oocyte quality,…

Long non-coding RNA Urothelial carcinoma-associated 1 (UCA1) is a pivotal regulator in the progression of endometriosis (EMs), yet its mechanistic role remains elusive. This study identified UCA1 as a factor promoting glycolysis through bio…

Endometriosis is a widespread gynecological disorder causing severe pain and infertility, with diagnosis currently relying on slow, costly, and risky laparoscopy. This highlights the critical need for non-invasive imaging diagnostics using …

BackgroundTraditional research on the female reproductive tract (FRT) microbiome has focused on the dominance of bacteria, particularly Lactobacillus, as a marker of health. This bacteriocentric paradigm, however, cannot fully explain clini…

IntroductionTranscription factor EB (TFEB) deficiency contributes to insufficient autophagic degradation, resulting in zymogen granule (ZG) accumulation and subsequent premature activation, which underlies the pathogenesis of alcoholic panc…

BackgroundChronic pelvic pain (CPP) affects 15% of reproductive-aged women, with current treatments showing limited efficacy. This study evaluated whether combining acupuncture with conventional therapy improves outcomes compared to convent…

BackgroundPelvic floor surface electromyography (sEMG) is widely used to evaluate and treat pelvic floor dysfunctions (PFDs). Based on sEMG, the Glazer protocol was developed over 20 years ago with a limited sample size, making it challengi…

Endometriosis is marked by the ectopic growth, spread, and invasion of endometrial tissue beyond the uterus, resulting in recurrent bleeding, pain, reproductive challenges, and the formation of nodules or masses. Despite advancements in det…

BACKGROUND: Infertility has become a world-wide public health problem. To identify women in a high-risk of infertility at an early stage when more treatments are available, early risk factors such as age at menarche (AAM) are being investig…

BackgroundHyperuricemia (HUA) has become popular globally, being an important risk factor for various metabolic diseases. Elevated serum uric acid (UA) levels cause adverse reproductive outcomes in women with polycystic ovary syndrome under…

This study investigates the association between parity and type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) in Japanese women, considering the clinical history of gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM) and menopausal status, which are known risk factors for T2…

PurposeThis study aimed to monitor the expression of B-cell translocation gene 2 (BTG2) in granulosa cells of patients undergoing IVF/ICSI with respect blastocyst quality outcomes.MethodsWe recruited 181 women undergoing IVF/ICSI cycles for…

RESEARCH QUESTION: Can bioinformatics-driven identification of hub genes in granulosa cells be used to predict oocyte developmental potential in patients with endometriosis (EMS)-related infertility? DESIGN: This was an exploratory cohort …

ObjectiveTo explore the role of endometrial defects in the pathogenesis of abnormal uterine bleeding (AUB).DesignRetrospective case-control study.SettingTwo tertiary centres.Population or sampleWe included 155 patients with caesarean scar d…
