Minimally invasive thermal ablation therapies, including microwave ablation (MWA) and radiofrequency ablation (RFA), have emerged as effective alternatives to traditional surgical approaches for the management of symptomatic uterine fibroid…
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 …
Recent advancements in tissue clearing and three-dimensional (3D) visualization technologies have enabled subcellular-level examination of entire organs, particularly in complex structures such as the ovary and uterus. Traditional histologi…
The management of nasopharyngeal cancer (NPC) is rapidly evolving, with immune checkpoint inhibitors emerging as a prominent treatment approach. However, drug development targeting specific molecular and cellular abnormalities in NPC has sl…
BACKGROUND: Polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) is widely acknowledged as the prevailing reproductive endocrine disorder accompanied by numerous metabolic dysfunctions. However, there has been a lack of systematic examination regarding the ami…
INTRODUCTION AND HYPOTHESIS: Female bladder pain syndrome (FBPS), previously known as interstitial cystitis/bladder pain syndrome (IC/BPS). Numerous research indirectly prove that Female bladder pain syndrome (FBPS) is associated with immun…
OBJECTIVE: To propose a prediction model aimed at increasing the live birth rate of patients undergoing two-cell embryo transfer while eliminating multiple pregnancy complications. METHODS: Women who underwent their first In Vitro Fertiliz…
BACKGROUND: Spontaneous abortion has been associated with higher risk of type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) and gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM), while the evidence remains equivocal. This study aimed to examine the association between spon…
This study investigates the effects of astaxanthin on oxidative stress, mitochondrial function, and follicular development in mouse preantral follicles, with a focus on the involvement of the adenosine monophosphate-activated protein kinase…
INTRODUCTION: Low-grade endometrial stromal sarcoma (LGESS) is a rare malignant tumor of the uterus, characterized by slow growth. Early-stage LGESS is associated with favorable survival, but it has a high recurrence rate. The primary treat…
INTRODUCTION: Endometriosis is a chronic gynecological disorder that significantly impacts women of reproductive age. Recent evidence suggests a bidirectional link between endometriosis and brain functional networks, though the causal mecha…

BACKGROUND: Endometriosis (EMS), a well-recognized chronic inflammatory disorder, characterized by significant immune dysregulation, in which myeloid-derived suppressor cells (MDSCs) are essential for facilitating immunosuppression and driv…
Curcumin, the principal bioactive compound derived from turmeric, possesses a wide range of therapeutic properties such as anti-inflammatory, antioxidant, and wound-healing properties. Recent studies suggest that curcumin may alleviate HMGB…
BACKGROUND: Mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) isolated from umbilical cord blood (UCB) exhibit significant therapeutic efficacy in endometriosis; however, the molecular mechanisms governing their regulation remain incompletely elucidated. This …
OBJECTIVE: A growing number of research papers have looked at the influence of exercise on pain severity in people with primary dysmenorrhea, but the findings have been inconsistent. The purpose of this research was to thoroughly evaluate t…
OBJECTIVE: This study aims to demonstrate that the EN2 protein in cervical mucus may serve as a novel biomarker for screening endometrial cancer. MATERIALS AND METHODS: This study included 133 patients who were treated at Beijing Obstetric…
BACKGROUND: Human decidual mesenchymal stem cells (hDMSCs) play crucial roles in pregnancy. The decreased resistance of hDMSCs to oxidative stress is a key factor contributing to recurrent spontaneous abortion (RSA). miRNAs have essential f…
BACKGROUND: Insomnia is increasingly emerging as a significant concern in public health, with a longstanding emphasis on its relationship with overall well-being. Nevertheless, few research has been devoted to investigating the relationship…
BACKGROUND: This retrospective cohort study aimed to evaluate the impact of insulin resistance (IR) on clinical outcomes in polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) patients undergoing in vitro fertilization (IVF) or intracytoplasmic sperm injectio…
The human cytochrome P450 19A1 (CYP19A1, aromatase) is a heme-containing protein catalyzing the final steps of the biosynthesis of the steroid hormone 17β-estradiol. It is a key target for the treatment of sex-hormone-related disorders due …
RATIONALE: Intramural pregnancy is a rare form of ectopic pregnancy in which the gestational sac is embedded entirely within the myometrium, with no connection to the uterine cavity. Early diagnosis and timely management are challenging. P…
BACKGROUND: Studies have found that post-traumatic growth exists in patients with recent hysterectomy. However, previous studies have overlooked heterogeneity within groups. There is a lack of research on whether there are different categor…
OBJECTIVE: Primary dysmenorrhea (PD) is a recurrent disease. The current treatments for PD often fail to provide long-lasting effects, underscoring the necessity for new treatment options that can offer durable benefits. Previous studies ha…
Cancer is a highly deadly disease, with breast cancer, cervical cancer, endometrial cancer, and ovarian cancer being the most prevalent in women. However, traditional cancer treatments present challenges due to their strong toxic side effec…
