INTRODUCTION: Currently, the treatment strategies for angular pregnancy in the first trimester after assisted reproduction technology (ART) are unclear. Improper treatment will cause unnecessary losses to patients, especially infertile pati…

JNK3, a member of the MAPK family, plays a pivotal role in mediating cellular responses to stress signals, with its activation implicated in a myriad of inflammatory conditions. While JNK3 holds promise as a therapeutic target for neurodege…

ABSTRACT Pancreatitis is an inflammatory disease of the pancreas that can arise due to various factors, including environmental risks such as diet, alcohol, and smoking, as well as genetic predispositions. In some cases, pancreatitis may p…

Ovarian cancer (OC) is one of the most lethal malignancies of the female reproductive system. OC patients are usually diagnosed at advanced stages due to the lack of early diagnosis. The standard treatment for OC includes a combination of d…

BACKGROUND: There is a higher risk of preterm delivery (PTD) in singleton live births conceived after in vitro fertilization (IVF)/intracytoplasmic sperm injection (ICSI) compared with spontaneously conceived pregnancies. The objective of o…

The sirtuin family, a group of NAD+-dependent class 3 histone deacetylases (HDACs), was extensively studied initially as a group of longevity genes that are activated in caloric restriction and act in concert with nicotinamide adenine dinuc…

BACKGROUND: Endometriosis (EMS) is a relapsing and estrogen-dependent disease. For endometriosis such as deep endometriosis and ovarian endometrioid cysts, surgery is the most effective treatment. Long-term follow-up showed that the recurre…

BACKGROUND: Natural-cycle in vitro fertilization (NC-IVF) is an in vitro fertilization (IVF) cycle without gonadotropins or any other stimulation of follicular growth. Previous studies on live-birth prediction of NC-IVF were very few; the s…

Although many studies show that patients with diffuse adenomyosis who underwent fertility-sparing surgery can have a successful pregnancy, their pregnancy outcomes are still controversial. The objective of this study was to determine long-t…

OBJECTIVE: To explore the expression of CCN5 in endometriotic tissues and its impact on proliferation, migration and invasion of human endometrial stromal cells (HESCs). METHODS: We collected ovarian endometriosis samples from 20 women rec…

BackgroundAcute pancreatitis (AP) with critical illness is linked to increased morbidity and mortality. Current risk scores to identify high-risk AP patients have certain limitations.ObjectiveTo develop and validate a machine learning tool …

RESEARCH QUESTION: Could METTL3 and METTL14-mediated N6-methyladenosine (m6A) modification play possible cooperative roles in pathogenesis and progression of endometriosis? DESIGN: An investigation into m6A methylation profiles and the rol…

OBJECTIVE: To explore the risk factors affecting the recurrence of endometrial polyps (EPs) after hysteroscopic diagnosis and treatment of EPs following in vitro fertilization-embryo transfer (IVF-ET) failure by multivariate analysis. METH…

Background: Endometriosis is an estrogen-dependent gynecological inflammatory condition that may lead to infertility and recurrent pelvic pain. The purpose of this research was to determine the efficacy and safety of Salvia miltiorrhiza-con…

Background: Recurrent implantation failure (RIF) refers to that infertile patients have undergone multiple in vitro fertilization (IVF) or intracytoplasmic sperm injection (ICSI) cycles and transferred multiple embryos without embryo implan…

BACKGROUND: Early embryonic arrest (EEA) leads to repeated cessation of fresh cycles among infertile women undergoing in vitro fertilization (IVF). Whether the levels of some essential trace elements [copper (Cu), zinc (Zn), selenium (Se) a…

BACKGROUND: Endometriosis affects up to 10 % of women of reproductive age and can lead to infertility. Research investigating whether combined exposure to arsenic (As), cadmium (Cd), lead (Pb) and mercury (Hg) is related to an increased ris…

The abnormal expression of circular RNAs (circRNAs) is associated with the progression of polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS), which commonly causes infertility in women. In this study, we identified the role of circ_0030018 in PCOS. Quantitat…

The human microbiota influences physiology, disease, and metabolic reproduction. The origin of uterine bacteria is controversial. The main assumption is that the germs enter the uterine cavity from the vagina through the cervical canal, blo…

The vaginal microbiota, the host endocrine system, the vaginal anatomy, and the local mucosal immunity comprise the vaginal microbiota, which interacts with each other to maintain the balance of the vaginal microbiota, which maintains femal…

Endometriosis is a common gynecological disease, affecting up to 10% of women of reproductive age and approximately 50% of women with infertility. Circular RNAs (circRNAs) have been shown to be involved in a number of diseases. Dysregulated…

BACKGROUND: MicroRNAs (miRNAs) are small, non-coding RNAs that are dysregulated in many diseases and can act as biomarkers. Although well-studied in cancer, the role of miRNAs in embryo implantation is poorly understood. Approximately 70% o…

Myocardial infarctions are most often caused by the so-called vulnerable plaques, usually featured as non-obstructive lesions with a lipid-rich necrotic core, thin-cap fibroatheroma, and large plaque size. The identification and quantificat…

BACKGROUND: Thin endometrium on ovulation triggering day is associated with impaired pregnancy outcomes in women after in vitro fertilization/intracytoplasmic sperm injection (IVF/ICSI), but the role of thick endometrium on pregnancy outcom…

OBJECTIVE: The transcription factor Specificity protein 1 (Sp1) plays important roles in many critical biological functions; however, its expression and underlying functions in endometriosis remain undefined. Bioinformatics has suggested th…
