Background/Objectives: Vilaprisan and ulipristal acetate (UPA) have demonstrated efficacy in treating uterine fibroids (UFs). However, a direct comparison of vilaprisan and UPA has been restricted, to date, to a small phase 2 study. Here, w…

ObjectiveThis study aimed to explore the diagnosis and treatment of patients who have reached menarche but present with clinical manifestations of genital tract obstruction.MethodsA retrospective analysis was conducted on 72 patients with a…

BackgroundThis study aims to evaluate the efficacy of a three-dimensional visualization operative planning system (3DVOPS) in ultrasound-guided percutaneous microwave ablation (US-PMWA) for the treatment of large uterine fibroids.MethodsFro…

BACKGROUND: Opioid-free anesthesia (OFA) protocols using esketamine and dexmedetomidine have shown potential benefits for perioperative pain control with fewer side effects. We explored whether an esketamine–dexmedetomidine OFA regimen acce…

Long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs) affect the biological functions of granulosa cells (GCs) through multiple mechanisms, including epigenetic regulation, transcriptional regulation, post-translational modification, and cell signaling. Our previ…

BackgroundStroke is a devastating global health issue, with high mortality and disability rates. The increasing prevalence of male infertility among reproductive-aged men has become a growing concern worldwide. However, the relationship bet…

RationaleIntravascular/intravenous leiomyomatosis (IVL) is a peculiar variant of uterine leiomyoma that is classified as a histologically benign smooth muscle tumor with a biological behavior similar to that of a malignant tumor. It is char…

BackgroundInfertility is a reproductive health problem that attracts worldwide attention. Polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) is a major cause of female infertility and patients with obesity and PCOS are particularly common in clinical practic…

OBJECTIVE: To evaluate the efficacy and safety of 2 doses of vilaprisan vs. placebo in participants with symptomatic endometriosis. DESIGN: Multicenter, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, parallel-group phase 2b trial (NCT035733…

We performed clinical treatment, histopathology, immunohistochemistry and molecular analyses. To compare with the published literature and have a reference overview. A 57-year-old woman and a 77-year-old woman presented with mesonephric-lik…

The present study aimed to identify the role of circPLOD2 in endometriosis and its underlying mechanisms. We determined circPLOD2 and miR-216a-5p expression in ectopic endometrial (EC) and eutopic endometrial (EU) samples as well as in endo…

Ovarian cancer (OC) represents a significant health challenge, characterized by a particularly unfavorable prognosis for affected women. Accumulating evidence supports the notion that inflammation-related factors impacting the normal ovaria…

The aim of this study is to investigate the effect of human chorionic gonadotropin (hCG) in hormone replacement regimen for frozen-thawed embryos. We performed a retrospective cohort study and included patients who underwent frozen embryo t…

PurposeWomen with Hashimoto's thyroiditis (HT) have an increased risk of ovarian insufficiency. However, whether thyroid antibodies affect the ovarian reserve remains controversial. The aim of this study was to explore the possible relation…

ObjectiveMesenchymal stem cell (MSC)-derived exosomes (MSC-exo) can treat reproductive disorders. However, the action of microRNAs (miRNAs) in this mechanism has yet to be systematically investigated. This study aimed to explore the effect …

BackgroundRobert's uterus is a rare congenital anomaly, characterized as an asymmetric septate uterus that has a blind hemicavity with unilateral menstrual fluid retention and a unicornuate hemicavity connecting to the cervix unimpededly. P…

Endometriosis is an invasive but benign disease of women that develops in endometrial glands outside the endometrium and uterine muscle. It affects about 15-20% of women of childbearing age. One effective way to treat endometriosis is to us…

BackgroundInfertility is a global reproductive-health problem, and diminished ovarian reserve (DOR) is one of the common causes of female infertility. Long noncoding RNAs (lncRNAs) are crucial regulators of numerous physiological and pathol…

ObjectivesTo investigate the incidence of functional ovarian cysts, its influence on clinical rates, and proper management after depot gonadotropin-releasing hormone (GnRH) agonist pretreatment in artificial frozen-thawed embryo transfer cy…

We aimed to estimate the diagnostic value of DNA methylation levels in cytological samples of endometrial cancer (EC) and atypical hyperplasia (AH). Two hypermethylated genes, namely, cysteine dioxygenase type 1 (CDO1) and zinc finger prote…

LncRNAs are involved in the pathophysiologic processes of multiple diseases, but little is known about their functions in hepatic ischemia/reperfusion injury (HIRI). As a novel lncRNA, the pathogenetic significance of hepatic nuclear factor…

AimThe aim of this study was to investigate the role and mechanism of long noncoding RNA (lncRNA) maternally expressed gene 3 (MEG3)-205 in renal inflammation and fibrosis in diabetic nephropathy (DN).Materials and methodslncRNA microarray …

Objective: To explore the pharmacological basis and mechanism of Buxue Yimu pills (BYP) in the treatment of anaemia in women from the perspective of metabolomics and network analysis. Materials and Methods: Forty-six women of reproductive a…

BackgroundDespite a large number of studies on the selection of trigger drugs, it remains unclear whether the dual trigger with human chorionic gonadotropin (hCG) and gonadotropin-releasing hormone (GnRH) agonist, compared to the trigger wi…

There are many studies on the advantages of using mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) that secrete various paracrine factors for repairing endometrial injury. However, the stability and effectiveness of MSCs require improvement to become a viable…
