Protein lipidation, a pivotal post-translational modification, dynamically regulates cellular signaling, membrane trafficking, and protein stability, with emerging roles in reproductive physiology. However, the systematic understanding of h…

The female reproductive tract (FRT), particularly the vagina, has traditionally been regarded as a sterile environment. However, it is now recognized that the vagina is a complex, dynamic ecosystem dominated by Lactobacillus species, which …

Sleep deprivation (SD) is a significant risk factor for reproductive dysfunction. This review aims to synthesize evidence establishing that oxidative stress (OS) is the key pathological mediator of SD-induced reproductive impairments in bot…

OBJECTIVE: To compare dietary preparation durations and evaluate optimal diet types before high-intensity focused ultrasound (HIFU) treatment. MATERIALS AND METHODS: Five hundred patients with uterine fibroids or adenomyosis undergoing HIF…

BACKGROUND: Separate endometrioid adenocarcinoma involving only the gastrointestinal tract is extremely rare. Its diagnosis requires confirmation through pathological examination and immunohistochemical analysis. CASE: We report the case o…

PURPOSE: Endometriosis (EM) is a chronic inflammatory gynecological disorder characterized by ectopic endometrial-like lesions, where aberrant angiogenesis is a hallmark driving lesion establishment and progression. However, the transcripti…

BACKGROUND: Cervical pregnancy (CP) is a rare but life-threatening ectopic gestation with high risk of catastrophic hemorrhage during evacuation. Uterine artery embolization (UAE) combined with dilation and curettage (D&C) has been proposed…

OBJECTIVE: To present an innovative approach of transumbilical single-port laparoscopic adenomyomectomy using the double-flap method combined with transient bilateral uterine artery occlusion, specifically for patients desiring uterine pres…

ETHNOPHARMACOLOGICAL RELEVANCE: Xiao-Liu Tang (XLT), a formulation grounded in the Traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) theory of Qi-Blood, has shown promise in alleviating endometriosis-related symptoms through clinical observations, with em…

This study investigates the role of allograft inflammatory factor 1 (AIF-1) in regulating the proliferation, invasion, and migration of endometrial stromal cells (ESCs) in the context of endometriosis, focusing on its impact on mitochondria…

OBJECTIVE: Special attention has been paid to genetic mechanisms that might have a significant impact on the context of the risk of developing endometriosis, in recent years. The study aimed to analyze the expression levels of three inflamm…

Polycystic ovary syndrome is the primary cause of female infertility. Growing evidence suggests that dysregulation of amino acid metabolism plays a significant role in the onset and progression. However, the underlying mechanism remains unc…

Ferroptosis is a potential target for the treatment of endometriosis (EMs). The role of andrographolide (AP) in the ferroptosis has gradually attracted attention, but its mechanism of action in endometriosis has not been clarified. Here we …

Gynecological diseases (GyD) are related to reproductive tissue disorders such as the cervix, vagina, fallopian tubes, and ovaries, which can affect fertility. Among these diseases, we can mention endometriosis, ovarian laziness, primary ov…

BackgroundThe main objective of this study was to summarize and analyze the pregnancy outcomes in the assisted reproductive technology (ART) population with subchorionic hematoma (SCH) in the first trimester. Moreover, we aimed to explore t…

The high rate of unexplained female infertility significantly affects public health and women's mental well-being. Research on dietary nutrients' impact on infertility often overlooks vitamin B2. Exploring this vitamin's role could be cruci…

BackgroundEsophageal squamous cell carcinoma (ESCC) is a malignant tumor with high morbidity and mortality, and easy to develop resistance to chemotherapeutic agents. Telomeres are DNA-protein complexes located at the termini of chromosomes…

Adding plant extracts to diets to enhance sow performance and health is widely regarded as a healthy and sustainable practice. In promoting antibiotic-free farming, plant extracts have emerged as a leading solution for enhancing sow fertili…

Endometriosis is a common gynecological condition. However, endometriosis-associated malignancies occur in up to 1% of women with endometriosis. Most cases of endometriosis-associated malignancy occur in the ovary, whereas 20% of cases occu…

OBJECTIVES: The aim of this study was to cross-culturally translate a questionnaire about gynecological and pelvic pain symptoms (ENDOPAIN-4D) patient-reported outcome measurement (PROM) into Chinese and evaluate its reliability and validit…

ObjectiveTo identify clinical characteristics and risk factors for adverse pregnancy outcomes after clinical pregnancy following laparoscopic tubal anastomosis (LTA).MethodsRetrospective analysis of 253 patients undergoing LTA (May 2016-Dec…

ObjectiveTo compare surgical outcomes of laparoendoscopic single-site myomectomy (LESS-M) for uterine myomas using barbed suture versus conventional suture.MethodsData were collected from all women with uterine myomas who underwent LESS-M a…

The Levonorgestrel-releasing Intrauterine System (LNG-IUS) is extensively utilized in the treatment of adenomyosis. However, the displacement and expulsion of the LNG-IUS bring significant challenges. This was a retrospective analysis compa…

Curcumol (Cur) has been found to be useful in improving Endometriosis (EMS), however its mechanism of action is still not completely understood. Based on this, the current study was carried out to investigate the mechanism of Cur on the inv…
