The causal relationship between inflammatory factors and acute pancreatitis (AP), chronic pancreatitis (CP), alcohol-induced acute pancreatitis (AAP), and alcohol-induced chronic pancreatitis (ACP) remains unclear. We aimed to examine the c…

BACKGROUND: Fibrogenesis is a common pathological feature of endometriotic lesions and contributes to the development of endometriosis-associated chronic pelvic pain and infertility. TGF-β is a critical factor in the induction of fibrogenes…

BackgroundAccurate preoperative staging of endometrioma (EC) is essential for optimal treatment planning. This study aims to evaluate the diagnostic performance of intravenous contrast-enhanced ultrasound (IV-CEUS) as a potential modality f…

BackgroundCervical squamous cell carcinoma (CESC) constitutes a substantial global health burden, especially in resource-limited regions. The identification of reliable biomarkers is critical for developing a clinically applicable nomogram …

BackgroundPurinergic P2 receptors, which can be divided into ionotropic P2X receptors and metabotropic P2Y receptors, mediate cellular signal transduction of purine or pyrimidine nucleoside triphosphates and diphosphate. Based on the wide e…

BackgroundThe plasma concentration of endoxifen, the active metabolite of tamoxifen, might be affected by different CYP2D6 genotypes in patients with breast cancer, but solid evidence is still lacking in Asian patients. This prospective stu…

Uterine dendritic cells (uDCs) are critical for endometrial function, yet their origin and functional roles during the pre- and post-implantation periods in the human endometrium remain largely unknown. We hypothesize that distinct uDC subs…

Increasing evidence suggests that non-coding small RNAs (miRNAs) carried by exosomes (EXOs) play important roles in the development and treatment of polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS). In this study, we demonstrate that PCOS mouse serum-deriv…

OBJECTIVE: To explore the effects of chromosomal aneuploidy screening and secondary vitrification-warming on the pregnancy and neonatal outcomes of non-biopsied, previously vitrified embryos. METHODS: This retrospective cohort study include…

ObjectiveThis study aimed to evaluate the impact of succinylcholine on the incidence of postoperative sore throat (POST) in patients undergoing hysteroscopy under laryngeal mask airway (LMA)-assisted general anesthesia.DesignA prospective, …

BackgroundDiabetes mellitus (DM) is one of the most common endocrine disorders affecting various physiological systems and tissues, including the reproductive organs in men. However, the consequences of DM for male individuals undergoing as…

BackgroundOvarian sex cord-stromal tumors (OSCSTs) are a rare and heterogeneous group of ovarian neoplasms, encompassing various subtypes such as ovarian thecoma, fibroma (including cellular fibroma), and ovarian granulosa cell tumors (OGCT…

Ovarian clear cell carcinoma (OCCC) represents a rare and aggressive subtype of epithelial ovarian cancer with distinctive clinical and molecular characteristics. However, the identification, origin, and molecular features of the malignant …

Antibiotic use is known to contribute to the development of osteoporosis, although the exact mechanisms remain poorly understood. Metronidazole (MET), a commonly prescribed antibiotic for treating anaerobic infections, has been linked to al…

Ferredoxins (FDXs) are evolutionarily conserved iron-sulfur (Fe-S) proteins that serve as master regulators of mitochondrial redox homeostasis, governing critical processes including electron transfer, energy metabolism, Fe-S cluster biogen…

Hormonal contraceptives (HCs) are commonly prescribed medications that have had immeasurable impacts on quality of life and health of women and families globally. However, usage of exogenous hormones is not without risks, and patients often…

OBJECTIVE: The aim of this study was to compare the effects of different endometrial treatment regimens on the outcome of frozen embryo transfer (FET). METHODS: A retrospective analysis of 1,454 FET cycles was conducted. Subgroups were str…

In this single-center, double-blinded, randomized controlled trial, we investigated whether human umbilical cord-derived mesenchymal stromal cells loaded collagen scaffolds (hUC-MSC/CS) could improve the cumulative live-birth rate (cLBR) in…

BACKGROUND: Adenomyosis is a uterine disorder closely linked to infertility and adverse pregnancy outcomes. Despite its clinical significance, the mechanisms by which adenomyosis impairs embryo implantation and perinatal outcomes remain inc…

Introduction Recurrent implantation failure (RIF) is a major challenge in reproductive medicine, and emerging evidence suggests that alterations in the endometrial microbiota may play a critical role in its pathogenesis. To identify the mai…

Premature ovarian insufficiency (POI) is a common, heterogeneous disorder that affects up to 3.5% of women under 40 years of age and is defined by oligo/amenorrhoea, hypo-oestrogenism, and markedly elevated gonadotrophin levels. POI substan…

BackgroundMeigs syndrome is characterized by the association of a benign ovarian tumor, typically an ovarian fibroma, with pleural effusion and ascites.Case summaryThis report presents a case of a 54-year-old woman who was misdiagnosed with…

The regulatory mechanism between N6-methyladenosine (m6A) RNA methylation and histone modification in endometrial receptivity remains poorly understood. In this study, we depict that RIF induced m6A and Mettl3 level restrain, affecting H3K2…

BackgroundMicroRNAs (miRNAs) exert a crucial role in the progression of lung cancer (LC) and can serve as prognostic biomarkers.AimTo analyze the prognostic value of miR-3613-5p and its regulatory effect on XPO6 in LC, this study was conduc…
