PurposePreclinical evidence suggests that metformin may mitigate pelvic organ prolapse (POP) by altering the gene expression of human vaginal fibroblasts in a beneficial direction, but clinical validation is lacking. This study aimed to exp…

The hypothalamus plays a vital role in reproductive processes. Previous studies have identified hypothalamic miRNAs involved in mammalian reproduction, but the miRNA profiles induced by photoperiod changes remain unclear. In this study, we …

OBJECTIVE: To investigate the relationship between third-trimester antenatal depression (AND) and the number of pregnancies, considering the possible moderating role of dysmenorrhea. METHODS: A total of 1,178 pregnant women in their third t…

Endometrial polyps (EPs) are common uterine lesions associated with abnormal uterine bleeding and infertility, yet their pathogenesis remains poorly defined. Here, we performed single-cell RNA sequencing of normal endometrium, para-polyp, a…

Diabetic kidney disease (DKD) is a prevalent complication in individuals with diabetes. Efferocytosis plays a pivotal role in chronic diseases; however, the precise mechanisms involved in DKD are still not fully understood. DKD-related data…

BackgroundHydrosalpinx affects 10-30% of infertile women, creating a hostile tubal microenvironment that impairs embryonic development. Although fluid embryotoxicity is recognised, specific toxic metabolites and their molecular mechanisms r…

BackgroundPolycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) is a leading cause of anovulatory infertility. Despite a high antral follicle count, advanced-age PCOS patients experience a marked decline in cumulative live birth rates (CLBR) after assisted repr…

Annexin A2 (ANXA2) is a calcium-dependent protein with high affinity for phospholipids, and its multifunctional nature has drawn increasing attention in the onset and progression of various disorders of the female reproductive system (FRS).…

BACKGROUND: Menopause is a major global health issue affecting cisgender women, transgender people, and gender-diverse populations, yet it remains under-recognised in research and policy, particularly in low-income and middle-income countri…

Monkeypox virus (MPXV) infection-associated intestinal manifestations, including diarrhea and proctitis, have been frequently reported during mpox outbreaks. Here, we present clinical evidence that MPXV can directly infect the human intesti…

BackgroundTraditional physiology teaching relies on 2D materials and static specimens, making it difficult to intuitively present complex anatomical structures and physiological mechanisms. 3D Intelligent Printing Technology (3DIPT) has dem…

RNA modification has been established as a pivotal field in epitranscriptomics, representing an emerging, dynamic, and precise regulatory layer in gene expression control. N6-methyladenosine (m6A), the most prevalent internal RNA modificati…

Females with iron overload suffer from follicular dysplasia, and effective therapeutic strategies for preserving fertility remain lacking. As a natural aliphatic polyamine, spermidine exerts antioxidant activity and plays an anti-ferroptosi…

BackgroundPyometra is an uncommon gynecologic disorder characterized by the accumulation of pus within the uterine cavity typically resulting from cervical obstruction. Spontaneous perforation of pyometra (SPP) is extremely rare but may rap…

Oral delivery of protein and peptide therapeutics (PPs) offers a non-invasive, patient-friendly alternative to parenteral administration, yet faces multiple formidable barriers due to the complex gastrointestinal (GI) environment. This revi…

INTRODUCTION: Adenomyosis, which affects > 20% of reproductive-age women, is a major cause of infertility. Defective decidualization of endometrial stromal cells (ESCs) is a key pathogenic feature of adenomyosis; however, the underlying red…

BackgroundImplantation failure is the most common cause of pregnancy failure and is a major limiting factor in assisted reproduction. Plasma microRNA (miRNA) expression profiles show dynamic changes among individuals with successful implant…

OBJECTIVE: This study aimed to investigate the variations in junctional zone (JZ) ultrasonographic parameters using three-dimensional transvaginal ultrasound (3D-TVS) across different age groups and evaluate their diagnostic potential for a…

Palmitoylethanolamide (PEA) is an endogenous fatty acid amide that has garnered significant attention due to its potential multiple antitumor mechanisms. This review first explores the current statuses and challenges faced in tumor preventi…

Fibrosis is a defining feature of endometriosis (EMS). Our previous single-cell RNA sequencing (scRNA-seq) revealed myofibroblasts (MFBs) as the predominant cells in ectopic endometrium (ECE), mainly derived from fibroblast-to-myofibroblast…

Globally, ovarian cancer remains a leading cause of gynecologic cancer death. This poor prognosis is primarily attributed to advanced disease at diagnosis, a high propensity for recurrence, and the inadequate therapeutic efficacy of current…

This study aimed to investigate the pathogenic mechanisms of jaw cysts by screening for differentially expressed proteins in the tissues of patients with jaw cysts using proteomic techniques. Tissue samples were collected from 4 patients wi…

PurposeVaginal natural orifice transluminal endoscopic surgery (vNOTES) is an innovative minimally invasive procedure. The study aimed to evaluate whether vNOTES achieves non-inferior results compared to conventional laparoscopy in patients…
