INTRODUCTION: In frozen-thawed embryo transfer (FET) cycles, hormone replacement treatment (HRT) was associated with a higher risk of hypertensive disorders of pregnancy (HDP) compared with natural cycles (NC). Multiple pregnancy was a risk…

PURPOSE: Adenomyosis (AM) is a common benign uterine disorder that has deleterious effects on women's health. However, the pathogenesis of AM is not clearly understood. We aimed to investigate the pathophysiological changes and molecular me…

BACKGROUND: Worldwide, frozen embryo transfer (FET) has become a new strategy for the treatment of infertility. The success of FET is closely related to endometrial receptivity. Does uterine artery Doppler during the implantation window pre…

STUDY QUESTION: Can whole exome sequencing (WES) followed by trio bioinformatics analysis identify novel pathogenic genetic causes of first trimester euploid miscarriage? SUMMARY ANSWER: We identified genetic variants in six candidate gene…

IMPORTANCE: There is a lack of information regarding the need to postpone conception after COVID-19 vaccination. OBJECTIVE: To investigate the time interval between the first dose of inactivated COVID-19 vaccine and in vitro fertilization …

BACKGROUND: A number of studies have compared the clinical outcomes between the two endometrial preparation methods: natural cycles (NCs) and hormone replacement treatment (HRT) before frozen embryo transfer, but the results were conflictin…

OBJECTIVE: Predictive models of the cumulative live birth (CLB) in women undergoing in vitro fertilization (IVF) treatment are limited. The aim of this study was to develop and validate a nomogram for the CLB in women undergoing the first I…

BACKGROUND: Luteinizing hormone (LH) is critical in follicle growth and oocyte maturation. However, the value of recombinant LH (r-LH) supplementation to recombinant follicle stimulating hormone (r-FSH) during controlled ovarian stimulation…

BACKGROUND: Ovarian malignant mesoderm mixed tumor (OMMMT) is a rare clinical entity. To provide reference for the treatment and prognosis of OMMMT, we analyzed the clinical features, pathology and molecular biology characteristic of publis…

Some of the key steps in adenomyosis (AM) are the migration and invasion of adenomyosis derived cells (AMDC); these processes require rearrangement of the cytoskeleton which Rho/ROCK signaling pathway is involved. The aim of the current stu…

OBJECTIVE: To study the effect of aging on ovarian circadian rhythm. DESIGN: Human and animal study. SETTING: University hospital and research laboratory. PATIENTS/ANIMALS: Human granulosa cells were obtained by follicular aspiration fro…

OBJECTIVES: This study investigated and analyzed the therapeutic effect of Fukejing capsules combined with ceftriaxone sodium and metronidazole in treating chronic pelvic inflammation and its influence on hemorheology and inflammatory facto…

Endometriosis (EMs) is recorded as Zheng Jia in traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) books. Guizhi Fuling Pills (GFPs), a classic prescription for promoting blood circulation and removing blood stasis, is widely used for women's blood stasis …

PURPOSE: To explore the mechanism of levonorgestrel (LNG)-ameliorating adenomyosis through long non-coding RNA H19 (lncRNA H19)/miR-17/Toll-like receptor 4 (TLR4) pathway. PATIENTS AND METHODS: A total of 71 cases of adenomyosis and 54 cas…

Abstract Background: Adenomyosis (AM) is a common benign chronic gynaecological disorder; however, the precise pathogenesis of adenomyosis is still poorly understood. Single-cell RNA sequencing (scRNA-seq) can uncover rare subpopulations, …

Objective: To investigate the characteristics and outcomes of low prognosis patients defined by POSEIDON criteria undergoing IVF treatment. Design: Retrospective cohort analysis. Setting: An IVF clinic in a public hospital. Patients: 18,455…

PURPOSE: To compare the clinical outcome of fresh embryo transfer with frozen-thawed embryo transfer in subsequent cycle of GnRH antagonist protocol. METHODS: Totally, 1430 women were enrolled from the cases of our Assisted Reproduction Ce…

It is unknown whether seasonal variation influences the outcome of in vitro fertilization (IVF). Previous studies related to seasonal variation of IVF were all small sample size, and the results were conflicting. We performed a retrospectiv…

Cancer cells are usually exposed to stressful environments, such as hypoxia, nutrient deprivation, and other metabolic dysfunctional regulation, leading to continuous endoplasmic reticulum (ER) stress. As the most conserved branch among the…

We performed a meta-analysis to assess the diagnostic accuracy of circulating miRNA for patients with ovarian cancer. We systematically searched several online databases, including PubMed, Web of Science, Chinese National Knowledge Infrastr…

Endometriosis is a condition which involves the presence of uterine stroma and glands outside of the uterine cavity and represents one of the most prevalent disorders of the female reproductive tract. The key symptom of endometriosis is pai…

Adenomyosis, a benign invasion of endometrium, is closely related to endometriosis. Cysteine-rich 61 (Cyr61), a protein present in all endometrial tissues and menstrual effluents, is known to be associated with endometriosis. However, its r…

Endometriosis, a pathological condition in which the endometrium grows outside the uterus, is one of the most common causes of female infertility; it is diagnosed in 25-40% of infertile women. The mechanism by which endometriosis affects th…

AIMS: Expression of gonadotropin-releasing hormone receptor (GnRHR) has been demonstrated in a number of malignancies. The aim is to investigate the expression of GnRHR and prognosis in gastric cancer. METHODS AND MATERIALS: GnRHR mRNA was…
