BACKGROUND: Smoking and alcohol consumption have been consistently associated with adverse female reproductive outcomes; however, whether these associations reflect causal effects or are mediated by specific circulating metabolites remains …

BACKGROUND: Emerging evidence implicates the gut microbiota in the pathogenesis of adenomyosis (AM); however, whether this association is causal and through which mechanisms it operates remain largely unknown. METHODS: To interrogate poten…

Background/Objectives: The diagnosis of endometriosis (EM) remains challenging due to the lack of a perfect diagnostic standard and the poor concordance between clinical symptoms and lesion severity. Although laparoscopy is widely used in c…

Mesonephric-like adenocarcinoma (MLA) is a rare gynecologic malignancy primarily arising in the uterine corpus and ovaries. It shares remarkable similarities in its histomorphology, immunophenotype, and molecular features with mesonephric a…

Endometriosis is a hormone-dependent chronic inflammatory disease associated with pain and infertility, remains diagnostically and therapeutically challenging due to its multifactorial nature. Molecular mechanisms of the dynamic changes dur…

Endometriosis exhibits epithelial–mesenchymal transition (EMT)-aligned traits that promote invasion and lesion persistence. We investigated whether poly(ADP-ribose) polymerase-1 (PARP-1) coordinates β-catenin/TCF4 activity with EMT programs…

Endometriosis is a common gynecological disorder characterized by the ectopic growth of endometrium-like tissue outside the uterine cavity and is associated with pelvic pain, infertility, and reduced quality of life. Although several theori…

Pregnant women undergoing assisted reproductive technology (ART) have an increased risk of gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM), potentially linked to altered immune regulation, but the underlying circulating immune features remain unclear. …

We introduced our experience for an innovative and effective approach for cervical canal penetration in patients diagnosed with type II vaginal atresia with adequate uterine corpus development. The uterine cavity and neovagina was connected…

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…

The diverse and dynamic population of microorganisms present in the gut microbiota may affect host health. There are evidences to support the role of gut microbiota as a key player in reproductive development. Unfortunately, the relationshi…

Ovarian clear cell carcinoma (OCCC) is a subtype of ovarian cancer with a poor prognosis that often shows resistance to chemotherapy. This study retrospectively analyzed 247 patients with OCCC who were admitted to the Cancer Hospital of the…

BackgroundThe optimal surgical approach for hysterectomy in patients with complex large uteri remains controversial, particularly in those with uterine enlargement and obesity. This study aimed to compare perioperative outcomes and complica…

Endometriosis is a refractory estrogen-dependent gynecological disease in which ovarian endometriosis(OE) is the most common, and the main cell components are endometrial epithelial cells and stromal cells. However, constructing ectopic end…

This study investigates the mechanism of Ge Xia-Zhu Yu decoction (GXZYT) in the treatment of endometriosis (EMS). The active components and targets of GXZYT were screened using TCMSP database and HERB database. The EMS-related genes were re…

BackgroundThe echo pattern constitutes an ultrasonic index that reflects the characteristics of the endometrium across various phases of the menstrual cycle. However, consensus of endometrial echo pattern and pregnancy outcomes is lacking i…

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…

Fungal biofilms, as self-produced extracellular polymeric substances that resist antifungal agents and immune defense, represent a major cause of treatment failure and recurrent infections. Therefore, it is of great importance to eradicate …

BACKGROUND: Endometriosis is currently considered a chronic disease for which long-term medical treatment is needed. The aim of this study was to evaluate the long-term efficacy and safety of dydrogesterone in Chinese women with endometrios…

BACKGROUND: Melatonin is mainly secreted by the pineal gland during darkness and regulates biological rhythms through its receptors in the suprachiasmatic nucleus of the hypothalamus. In addition, it also plays a role in the reproductive sy…

BackgroundGnRH-a is commonly used in the luteal phase for pituitary down-regulation during in-vitro fertilization (IVF). There is an ineluctable risk of spontaneous pregnancy for infertile couples who lack the use of contraception during th…

Adenomyosis, characterized by clinical intractability, significantly impacts female fertility and life quality due to the absence of definitive diagnostic markers and effective treatment options. The invagination theory is a primary hypothe…

BACKGROUND: Adenomyosis is a chronic gynecological disorder characterized by the invasion of endometrial tissues into the myometrium of the uterus, with pathophysiology linked to chronic inflammation and metabolic dysregulation. However, th…

ObjectiveThis study aimed to analyze the trends and epidemiological characteristics of pancreatic cancer (PC) mortality in China from 2004 to 2021, focusing on gender, age, and regional disparities. The goal was to provide a comprehensive u…
