BackgroundDiabetic foot ulcers (DFU) are one of the most common and severe complications of diabetes, closely associated with high amputation rates and mortality, and the clinical treatment research is still limited. Previous studies have d…

Accurate identification of the endometrial region is critical for the early detection of endometrial lesions. However, current detection models still face two major challenges when processing endometrial imaging data: (1) In complex and noi…

BackgroundOvarian cancer has poor treatment outcomes. This study aims to explore the clinical importance of LINC00886 and its effects on cancer cell behavior in ovarian cancer, potentially offering a new therapeutic target.Materials and met…

IntroductionMetabolic syndrome is a serious public health concern across the globe. However, the typical metabolites and mechanisms underlying the decreased fertility related to metabolic syndrome is still elusive.ObjectivesThe aim of the p…

BackgroundOvarian dysfunction caused by aging restricts female reproductive capacity and causes age-related health problems. Ferroptosis is an important mode of cell death during accelerated aging. Oviductus Ranae (OR), a traditional Chines…

Peptide- and protein-based therapeutics offer realized and potential benefits to health, due to their potent bioactivity, high specificity, and favorable safety characteristics. However, their widespread clinical application is constrained …

BackgroundInfertility is a growing global challenge that affects millions of people, and various factors influence female reproductive health. This study examined the association between inflammatory indicators, nutritional status, metaboli…

Circular RNAs (circRNAs) are a newly discovered class of endogenous non-coding RNAs with a closed-loop structures, and they exert crucial regulatory functions in diverse biological processes and disease development through the modulation of…

BackgroundPelvic abscesses represent acute gynecological emergencies requiring timely intervention. This study evaluated prognostic predictors and treatment modalities in patients with pelvic abscesses.MethodsWe conducted a retrospective an…

BACKGROUND: Endometriosis is a hormone-dependent disease, which can usually be divided into peritoneal endometriosis (PEM), deep-infiltrating endometriosis (DIE) and ovarian endometriosis (OEM). Although the three pathologic types are essen…

Lactylation, a lactate-derived post-translational modification, emerges as a master metabolic regulator of resistance to regulated cell death (RCD) across pathologies including cancer, inflammatory disorders, and degenerative diseases. By d…

BackgroundThe immune system is of paramount importance in maintaining human health and defending against pathogens. Among them, the adaptive immune system is a crucial component of the immune system, as it is responsible for generating and …

PurposeProgestin-primed ovarian stimulation (PPOS) has been widely employed in in vitro fertilization/intracytoplasmic sperm injection (IVF/ICSI) cycles. In recent years, letrozole (LE) combined with medroxyprogesterone acetate (MPA) has be…

The most common medications for the treatment of zoonotic toxoplasmosis are pyrimethamine and sulfadiazine, which may cause serious undesirable side effects. Thus, there is an urgent need to develop novel therapeutics. Baicalein (BAI, C15H1…

Trained immunity induced by β-glucan insult drives the functional reprogramming of macrophages to the hyperinflammatory status, contributing to developing or maintaining inflammatory diseases. Inflammatory arthritis is characterized by an i…

BACKGROUND: Endometriosis (EM) is a chronic inflammatory disorder characterized by the growth of ectopic endometrial-like tissue and fibrosis. Metabolic reprogramming, particularly enhanced glycolysis, and immune microenvironment dysregulat…

Sterile and infection-associated inflammatory diseases are becoming increasingly prevalent worldwide. Conventional drug therapies often entail significant drawbacks, such as the risk of drug overdose, the development of drug resistance in p…

Endometriosis is a chronic disease that jeopardises the quality of life of about 10% of women. The aim of this study was to investigate the expression, function, regulatory mechanism, and relationship with immune cell infiltration of PNMA2 …

This study aims to examine the specific relationships between gut, oral, and vaginal microbiota and the frozen embryo transfer (FET) process. Patients undergoing fertility treatment who met the inclusion criteria were included in this study…

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…

OBJECTIVE: To determine the clinical and embryo laboratory factors that affect the clinical pregnancy rate of infertile patients with endometriosis (EMs), and establish a model for predicting clinical pregnancy. STUDY DESIGN: An observatio…

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…

Ceria nanoparticles (CeO2 NPs) have become popular materials in biomedical and industrial fields due to their potential applications in anti-oxidation, cancer therapy, photocatalytic degradation of pollutants, sensors, etc. Many methods, in…

Atmospheric fine particulate matter (PM2.5) can harm various systems in the human body. Due to limitations in the current understanding of epidemiology and toxicology, the disease types and pathogenic mechanisms induced by PM2.5 in various …
