Knee osteoarthritis (KOA) is a highly prevalent chronic degenerative joint disorder characterized by progressive articular cartilage degeneration, chondrocyte death, and extracellular matrix degradation. Accumulating evidence indicates that…

Endometriosis is a chronic inflammatory disease with cancer-like features, yet the mechanisms linking metabolic dysregulation to immune remodeling during lesion progression remain poorly understood. Here, we identify the ubiquitin E3 ligase…

Endometriosis is a benign yet invasive disease characterized by ectopic endometrial growth and immune remodeling. While emerging evidence implicates cellular senescence in disease progression, the underlying mechanisms remain largely undefi…

BACKGROUND: Endometriosis (EMS) and inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) are both chronic inflammatory disorders with overlapping clinical features, suggesting a potentially shared etiology. Although epidemiological studies have reported an ass…

Endometriosis (EM) is driven by immune dysregulation and macrophage dysfunction, yet the underlying mechanisms remain unclear. Here, metabolomic profiling revealed excessive itaconate accumulation in EM lesions, primarily due to elevated ci…

BACKGROUND: Thin endometrium continues to pose a significant challenge in assisted reproductive technology (ART) cycles, necessitating further exploration of therapeutic approaches. Tamoxifen (TMXF) has been primarily used in ovarian stimul…

Endometriosis, a chronic inflammatory condition characterized by pain and infertility, remains a clinical challenge. Current hormonal and surgical treatments are often limited by side effects and high recurrence rates. In search of more eff…

Neurogenic bladder (NB)-induced fibrosis is the major cause of irreversible bladder dysfunction, yet the underlying mechanisms remain undefined. Here, leveraging single-cell RNA sequencing, the fibrotic landscape of NB is delineated and a d…

BACKGROUND: To assess sequential embryo transfer's impact on clinical outcomes in frozen embryo transfer (FET) cycles for patients with multiple transfer failures. METHODS: This retrospective cohort study encompasses 4,499 FET cycles invol…

BACKGROUND: Accurate diagnosis of rectal and perirectal lesions remains challenging, particularly for submucosal, necrotic, or anatomically complex masses where conventional endoscopic forceps biopsy (EFB) often yields insufficient tissue. …

BACKGROUND: Insulin resistance (IR) is a key metabolic disturbance that adversely affects assisted reproductive technology (ART) outcomes. In women with polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS), IR has been well documented to impair oocyte quality,…

Long non-coding RNA Urothelial carcinoma-associated 1 (UCA1) is a pivotal regulator in the progression of endometriosis (EMs), yet its mechanistic role remains elusive. This study identified UCA1 as a factor promoting glycolysis through bio…

"Wen Tong Plaster" is renowned for its therapeutic effects of warming meridians, dispelling cold, and promoting blood circulation. However, its chemical composition and active pharmacological substances have yet to be fully elucidated. In t…

Although uterine incarceration is typically associated with pregnancy, this report presents a rare case of uterine incarceration in a non-pregnant woman, highlighting adenomyosis as an uncommonly and underrecognized etiology, distinct from …

Vitamin D has attracted increasing attention in male reproduction, male fertility, and sperm function, but its pharmacological relevance remains incompletely defined. This review synthesizes current evidence on the molecular mechanisms and …

Angiogenesis plays a critical role in the progression of endometriosis, with enhanced glycolysis accelerating pathological angiogenesis. Prior research has identified a central role for N6-methyladenosine (m6A) modification in regulating gl…

The widely accepted theory of endometriosis posits that endometriosis stems from the translocation of endometrial tissue through the fallopian tubes into the abdominal cavity. However, the exact pathogenesis and critical molecules of endome…

Ectopic spleen (ES) is a rare complication of autologous transplant following spleen injury. Autopsy studies suggest that the true incidence rate could be as high as 67%, though only 5%-10% of patients require clinical intervention. This ca…

BACKGROUND: Cotton phenol is a yellowish-brown polyphenol hydroxybinaphthyl aldehyde compound mainly found in the roots, stems, leaves and seeds of cotton; a plant of the mallow family that has been widely used in the study of antifertility…

OBJECTIVE: This study aimed to assess the efficacy of acupuncture combined with Chinese herbal medicine (CHM) on endometriosis-associated pain. METHODS: We searched eight electronic databases (PubMed, Web of Science, EMBASE, the Cochrane L…

BACKGROUND: The benefit of adjuvant chemotherapy for stage I ovarian endometrioid carcinoma (OEC) remains controversial. Hence, the study sought to explore its value in stage I OEC patients. METHODS: Stage I OEC patients (1988-2018) were i…

Abstract Background The microbiome of the female reproductive system has been extensively studied; however, the correlation between uterine microbial alterations and endometriosis remains unclear. Methods Endometrial and lesion tissues wer…

OBJECTIVE: To explore factors influencing high-quality embryo rate in long protocols for controlled ovarian hyperstimulation (COH) during in vitro fertilization (IVF). METHODS: It was a retrospective case-control study including patients r…

OBJECTIVE: Whether large language models (LLMs) can effectively facilitate CM knowledge acquisition remains uncertain. This study aims to assess the adherence of LLMs to Clinical Practice Guidelines (CPGs) in CM. METHODS: This cross-sectio…

BACKGROUND: The risk of preterm birth (PTB) is associated with maternal hyperglycemia but differs by combinations of abnormal oral glucose tolerance test (OGTT) values. However, the potential pathway by which maternal hyperglycemia affects …
