Endometriosis is a prevalent chronic inflammatory gynecological disorder affecting approximately 10% of reproductive-age women worldwide, characterized by endometrial-like tissue outside the uterine cavity. Ectopic lesion growth tracks clos…

Background and aimsIt has been estimated that nearly half of patients with gastroparesis use opioids long term, are unable to cease or wean opioid use, and continue to endorse debilitating symptoms. The aim of this study was to evaluate out…

Introduction. Endometriosis affects 10-20% of reproductive-age women. Emerging evidence links the gut microbiota to endometriosis pathogenesis, but observational studies are limited by confounding, reverse causation and uncertainty about wh…

BACKGROUND: This study utilizes data from two principal sources: the National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (NHANES) conducted in the United States from 1999 to 2020 and the China Health and Retirement Longitudinal Study (CHARLS) …

BackgroundUnexplained recurrent spontaneous abortion (URSA) poses a significant clinical challenge with an elusive pathogenesis. FABP4 is crucial for lipid homeostasis and placental development, but its specific role and regulatory mechanis…

Regulated cell death is essential for development, tissue homeostasis, host defense, and disease. Beyond apoptosis, it is now clear that other forms of cell death, including ferroptosis, pyroptosis, and necroptosis, also contribute to patho…

Adenomyosis is characterized by the invasion of endometrial glands and stroma into the myometrium. Its clinical manifestations often include dysmenorrhoea, excessive menstrual bleeding and infertility. Reduced pregnancy and live birth rates…

INTRODUCTION: Endometriosis (EMS) is a common gynaecological disorder linked to metabolic disturbances. However, evidence on the associations between lipid accumulation product (LAP) and visceral adiposity index (VAI) with the risk of EMS r…

BackgroundAs the precursor malignancy of endometrial cancer (EC), about 50% of endometrial complex atypical hyperplasia (CAH) will eventually progress to EC. Elucidating the underlying transformation mechanisms could aid in disease manageme…

Introduction and hypothesisWe aimed to develop and validate a clinically applicable risk assessment model for identifying women at a high risk of pelvic organ prolapse (POP) based on a retrospective practice.MethodsThis study enrolled patie…

OBJECTIVE: To systematically evaluate the efficacy and safety of Chinese herbal medicine (CHM) for endometriosis-associated pain (EAP). METHODS: Randomized controlled trials (RCTs) were retrieved from PubMed, Embase, and Cochrane Library u…

PurposeThis study aimed to compare the pregnancy outcomes of letrozole (LE)-induced ovulation and hormone replacement treatment (HRT) in endometrial preparation for frozen embryo transfer (FET) in women with polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS)…

Rising rates of infertility have stimulated interest in dietary supplements to improve oocyte quality through mitochondrial function, antioxidant activity, and epigenetically regulated metabolic pathways. Mitochondria provides adenosine tri…

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 …

ObjectivesThis study highlights the role of efflux pumps in the resilience of bacterial biofilms and explores strategies to overcome efflux-mediated resistance in order to improve the treatment of biofilm-associated infections.MethodsA lite…

Alarmins are a class of molecules released when affected cells damaged or undergo apoptosis. They contain various chemotactic and immunomodulatory proteins or peptides. These molecules regulate the immune response by interacting with patter…

BackgroundAmphiregulin (AR) is a growth factor that resembles the epidermal growth factor (EGF) and serves various functions in different cells. However, no systematic studies or reports on the role of AR in human oocytes have currently bee…

RationaleMER proto-oncogene tyrosine kinase (MerTK) is a key receptor for the clearance of apoptotic cells (efferocytosis) and plays important roles in redox-related human diseases. We will explore MerTK biology in human cells, tissues, and…

•The reference intervals calculated using RefineR, Kosmic, TMC, and non-parametric methods are similar.•TMC algorithm is more robust, demonstrates a high pass rate among the four methods and has the ability to automatically isolate outliers…

Shaofuzhuyu Decoction (SFZYD) is a classical formula for treating endometriosis of cold coagulation and blood stasis (ECB). The clinical efficacy is definite, but the potential mechanisms require further exploration. The study aimed to reve…

BACKGROUND: Accurate preoperative diagnosis of endometrial cancer (EC) with deep myometrial invasion (DMI) is critical to deciding whether to perform lymphadenectomy. However, the presence of adenomyosis makes distinguishing DMI from superf…

PROBLEM: Endometriosis and adenomyosis have common pathogenesis and close relationship, with multi-factors involved in related infertility and IVF failure. They lead to anatomical changes, ovarian reserve reduction, endocrine abnormalities,…

Importance: Chronic pelvic pain (CPP) is the main sequela of pelvic inflammatory disease (PID), with no established treatment. ZY5301 tablets, an effective part preparation extracted from Ajuga decumbens Thunb. (jingucao), are being tested …

Endometriosis is a common disease of reproductive-age women and an important cause of dysmenorrhea and infertility. Information on endometriosis is complex and there is a lack of summarization of available results. The study aims to evaluat…
