BACKGROUND: Endometriosis (EM) is a chronic, estrogen-dependent disease that lacks reliable noninvasive diagnostic biomarkers. This study was aimed at evaluating the diagnostic value of PAX8 using integrated transcriptomic and machine learn…

Ovarian granulosa cells (GCs), as key components of follicles, orchestrate follicular development and ovarian maturation through bidirectional communication with oocytes and through hormone synthesis. Their dysfunction substantially contrib…

Lysine lactylation (Kla), an emerging post‑translational modification, bidirectionally regulates cell fate decisions through epigenetic reprogramming and the direct modification of key ferroptosis proteins. It drives disease progression or …

OBJECTIVE: This study aimed to investigate the mechanisms underlying Nuclear Receptor Subfamily 5 Group A Member 1 (NR5A1, encoding SF-1) hypomethylation in endometriosis (EMs) and to evaluate the effects of Luoshi Neiyi Prescription (LSNYP…

Sex hormone related disorders, characterized by complex etiology and long-term health risks, pose a significant challenge to global health. Hormone-based therapies are often accompanied by adverse effects and fail to address the underlying …

Ultraviolet (UV) radiation is a primary environmental factor responsible for skin photodamage, and exposure to UV rays is strongly linked to a variety of skin diseases. This study examined the prophylactic and therapeutic effects of Seed Oi…

BACKGROUND: Women with advanced maternal age (AMA) face a significant decline in embryo euploidy rates, leading to reduced fertility and increased risks of adverse pregnancy outcomes. While preimplantation genetic testing for aneuploidy (PG…

PurposeThis study aims to establish a single-time point RNA-sequencing-based endometrial receptivity test (rsERT) to provide hourly precision of endometrial WOI for patients with recurrent implantation failure (RIF).MethodsA two-phase study…

Endometriosis is a benign condition characterized by chronic inflammation and fibrosis. We report the findings of endometriosis at the rectouterine pouch on 68 Ga-FAPI-04 PET/CT scan in a 25-year-old woman. The finding was initially thought…

Intrahepatic cholestasis of pregnancy (ICP) is associated with an increased risk of adverse fetal outcomes, including fetal morbidity and mortality. It is a complex liver disorder influenced by genetic interactions, estrogen levels, and env…

The postponement of childbearing age has become a global issue. Factors such as increased work pressures on women and environmental changes have led to a rising incidence and younger onset of premature ovarian insufficiency (POI). POI not o…

In recent decades, the pharmacological properties of botanical drugs have been investigated with increasing depth, offering novel insights into their potential for enhancing healthcare. Berberine (BBR) is an alkaloid extracted from the root…

Primary antiphospholipid syndrome (APS) is an autoimmune thrombophilic disorder characterized by recurrent venous or arterial thrombosis and/or pregnancy morbidity in the presence of persistent antiphospholipid antibodies (aPL). Renal invol…

Study questionCan third-generation sequencing (TGS)-based polar body (PB) analysis serve as a viable alternative to conventional trophectoderm (TE) biopsy for preimplantation genetic testing for aneuploidy (PGT-A)?Summary answerThis study d…

Abstract Objective : Acute pancreatitis (AP) is an inflammatory disorder of the pancreas that can lead to life-threatening systemic inflammation and multiple organ failure with high mortality. The binding of tumor necrosis factor α (TNF…

This study aimed to investigate the association between insulin resistance (IR) and recurrent pregnancy loss (RPL) in patients undergoing assisted reproductive technology (ART). A retrospective analysis compared glucose and insulin indices …

OBJECTIVE: To analyze the ultrasonographic imaging features of accessory cavitated uterine malformations (ACUM) and discuss the practical value of ultrasonography in diagnosing this disease. METHODS: A retrospective analysis was conducted …

To evaluate the repeatability of a novel automated technique called Smart ERA (Smart Endometrial Receptivity Analysis) for the automated segmentation and volume calculation of the endometrium in patients with normal uteri,, and to compare t…

Previous work indicated that the implantation and pregnancy rates of women with endometriosis are lower than those of healthy women during in-vitro fertilisation and embryonic transfer. And there are numerous microRNAs (miRNAs) in human ute…

Given the high concentration of iron in the micro-environment of ovarian endometriosis, it is plausible to hypothesize that ectopic endometrial cells may be more susceptible to undergoing ferroptosis. Manipulation of ferroptosis has been ex…

PurposeTo investigate whether personalized embryo transfer (pET) predicted by a modified RNA-sequencing-based endometrial receptivity test (rsERT) model can improve intrauterine pregnancy rate (IPR) in patients with a receptive window of im…

Inflammatory cytokines, interleukin-36 (IL-36), IL-37, IL-38 belong to IL-1 family. The IL-36 subfamily obtains pro- and anti-inflammatory effects on various immune responses. Cytokine IL-37, has anti-inflammatory functions in immunity, and…

We present a rare case of a female pelvic solitary fibrous tumor unsuccessfully resected using single-port laparoscopy, requiring conversion to laparotomy. Although the resection was successful, the surgical approach could have been improve…

BackgroundRecurrent spontaneous abortion (RSA) is a multifactorial disease, the exact causes of which are still unknown. Environmental, maternal, and genetic factors have been shown to contribute to this condition. The aim of this study was…

BackgroundEmbryo implantation in a receptive endometrium is crucial for successful pregnancy. Endometrial receptivity (ER) prediction tools based on endometrial transcriptome biomarkers by endometrial biopsy have been used to guide successf…
