This study aimed to improve the diagnosis and treatment of intramural pregnancy (IMP). A retrospective analysis was conducted of 8 cases of IMP admitted between November 2016 and June 2024. Data on patients' clinical characteristics, diagno…

OBJECTIVES: Medroxyprogesterone acetate (MPA), a steroid progesterone, is widely used to treat endometriosis, menstrual disorders, and uterine bleeding in clinical practice. However, the safety profile of MPA requires comprehensive evaluati…

BackgroundIn this study, we aimed to explore the effect of the timing of surgical management of hydrosalpinx on in vitro fertilization/intracytoplasmic single-sperm injection (IVF/ICSI) pregnancy outcomes in patients with tubal factor infer…

BACKGROUND: Endometriosis is a chronic inflammatory disorder that significantly compromises women's health, typically manifesting as pelvic pain and/or infertility. This condition imposes a substantial burden on global healthcare systems. …

Lactic acid modification of histones represents an emerging post-translational modification that establishes a critical link between cellular metabolic reprogramming and epigenetic regulation through the covalent binding of lactic acid to h…

BACKGROUND: Optimal endometrial thickness and receptivity, precisely regulated by steroid hormones, are critical determinants for successful embryo implantation. Thin endometrium is a major cause of female infertility, yet its pathogenesis …

Endometriosis (EMs) is a gynecological inflammatory disease that depends on estrogen. Its chief symptoms include dysmenorrhea, chronic pelvic pain, reduced fertility, and pelvic masses. Although various hormonal therapies and surgical treat…

Abstract Background The current study investigated the correlation between the uterine corpus flexion angle (UCFA) and the severity of endometriosis, evaluated its clinical utility as a novel objective sonographic parameter, and provided …

BackgroundThis study aims to evaluate the efficacy of a three-dimensional visualization operative planning system (3DVOPS) in ultrasound-guided percutaneous microwave ablation (US-PMWA) for the treatment of large uterine fibroids.MethodsFro…

Polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) is one of the most common reproductive disorders in women and severely impairs fertility. Extant clinical studies can only provide indirect and plausible evidence to support endometrial dysfunction as an ova…

Sepsis represents a significant global health challenge, necessitating early detection and effective treatment for improved outcomes. While traditional inflammatory markers facilitate the diagnosis of sepsis, the aspect of immune suppressio…

BackgroundUterine broad ligament fibroids present unique surgical challenges due to their proximity to vital pelvic structures. This study aimed to evaluate artificial intelligence (AI)-guided MRI instance segmentation for optimizing laparo…

BackgroundMethylenetetrahydrofolate reductase (MTHFR) regulates folate metabolism and homocysteine (Hcy) methylation. Impaired folate metabolism and vitamin D deficiency are both closely associated with female reproductive disorders, but th…

BackgroundUterine fibroids present significant obstetric challenges, particularly in late pregnancy. This study compared the outcomes of cesarean section combined with myomectomy (CS+M) versus cesarean section followed by elective myomectom…

BackgroundInfertility has become a global health concern, especially as the aging population continues to grow. Previous studies suggest that gut microbiota plays a crucial role in female reproductive health. This study aimed to investigate…

Ectopic pancreas (EP) is most commonly located in the upper gastrointestinal tract, particularly in the stomach. Malignant transformation of EP is exceptionally rare, and due to its very low incidence, the response to drug therapy and overa…

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 …

As one part of the innate immune response to external stimuli, chronic inflammation increases the risk of various cancers, and tumor-promoting inflammation is considered one of the enabling characteristics of cancer development. Recently, t…

PurposePolycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) is currently recognized as a condition that affects several systems in the body, including the reproductive, endocrine, and cardiovascular systems. Prevalent among teenagers and women of reproductive …

Ovarian cancer (OC), a common gynecological malignancy, seriously threatens the lives and health of women. Though several serological markers are used for the early diagnosis of OC, most have low specificity and sensitivity. Micro-RNAs (miR…

Among gynecologic malignancies, ovarian cancer (OC) stands out as a highly aggressive disease with the highest mortality rate and the poorest prognosis. At the beginning stage, it demonstrates high sensitivity to platinum-based chemotherapy…

Endometriosis is a prevalent chronic gynecological disease that poses significant challenges for treatment due to its extensive lesions, diverse morphology, unknown etiology, and tendency for recurrence. In the early 21st century, the stem …

Telomeres and telomerase play crucial roles in the initiation and progression of cancer. As biomarkers, they aid in distinguishing benign from malignant tissues. Despite the promising therapeutic potential of targeting telomeres and telomer…

Yes-associated protein (YAP) plays a central role in the Hippo pathway, primarily governing cell proliferation, differentiation, and apoptosis. Its significance extends to tumorigenesis and inflammatory conditions, impacting disease initiat…
