An investigation of the mtDNA haplogroup in 96 Taiwanese women with diminished ovarian response (DOR) and normal ovarian response (NOR) showed that only the haplogroup R is less likely to experience DOR than other mtDNA haplogroups. When an…

Understanding human endometrial dynamics in the establishment of endometrial receptivity remains a challenge, which limits early diagnosis and treatment of endometrial-factor infertility. Here, we decode the endometrial dynamics of fertile …

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…

The circulating proteome offers insights into the biological pathways that underlie disease. Here, we test relationships between 1,468 Olink protein levels and the incidence of 23 age-related diseases and mortality in the UK Biobank (n = 47…

BACKGROUND: The heterogeneity of uterine fibroids in magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) is complex for a subjective visual evaluation, therefore it is difficult for an accurate prediction of the efficacy of high intensity focused ultrasound (…

BACKGROUND: This is an update of a Cochrane review first published in 2017. Acute appendicitis (inflammation of the appendix) can be simple or complicated. Appendiceal phlegmon and appendiceal abscess are examples of complicated appendiciti…

BACKGROUND: Repeated cryopreservation of embryos should occasionally be considered when embryos were not suitable for transfer. The effect of re-cryopreservation on embryos remains contentious. METHODS: This retrospective cohort study aime…

Endometriosis is a multifactorial gynecological disease, with angiogenesis as a key hallmark. The role of exosomal microRNAs (miRNAs) in endometriosis is not well understood. This study investigates differentially expressed exosomal miRNAs …

Abstract Background: N6-methyladenosine(m6A) modification regulates the processes of RNA splicing, subcellular localization, translation and stability by changing the RNA structure and the interaction between RNA and RNA-binding proteins to…

STUDY QUESTION: Which independent factors influence ICSI outcomes in patients with complete azoospermia factor c (AZFc) microdeletions? SUMMARY ANSWER: In patients with complete AZFc microdeletions, the sperm source, male LH, the type of i…

INTRODUCTION: Premature ovarian insufficiency (POI) is a condition characterized by ovarian dysfunction occurring before the age of 40, and its etiology is multifactorial, including genetic, immunological, infectious, environmental, and iat…

Endometriosis is a chronic inflammatory estrogen-dependent benign disease. It is defined as the endometrium growing outside the uterine cavity and the myometrium. It usually has low FDG uptake but rarely occurs in the ureters. We reported a…

INTRODUCTION: Cystic adenomyosis is a rare variant of adenomyosis, with only 90 reported cases found in the literature so far. Diverticulum-like adenomyosis is even more uncommon, with only one documented case to date. CASE PRESENTATION: W…

BACKGROUND: Little is known about the relationship between early life body size and occurrence of life-course multiple chronic diseases (multimorbidity). We aim to evaluate associations of birth weight, childhood body size, and their change…

The circulating proteome offers insights into the biological pathways that underlie disease. Here, we test relationships between 1,468 Olink protein levels and the incidence of 23 age-related diseases and mortality, over 16 years of electro…

OBJECTIVE: To study the correlation of Triclosan (TCS) exposure with typing and staging of endometriosis, and with other potential influencing factors. METHODS: This was a retrospective study. Thirty two patients that were diagnosed with e…

An RNA modification known as N6-methyladenosine (m6A) interacts with a range of coding and non-coding RNAs. The majority of the research has focused on identifying m6A regulators that are differentially expressed in endometriosis, but it ha…

INTRODUCTION: Successful embryo implantation, is the initiating step of pregnancy, relies on not only the high quality of the embryo but also the synergistic development of a healthy endometrium. Characterization and identification of bioma…

BACKGROUND: Lymph node metastasis (LNM) is an important factor affecting endometrial cancer (EC) prognosis. Current controversy exists as to how to accurately assess the risk of lymphatic metastasis. Metabolic syndrome has been considered a…

BACKGROUND: Endometriosis (EMs), the ectopic planting of functional endometrium outside of the uterus, is a leading cause of infertility and pelvic pain. As a fundamental mRNA modification, N6-methyladenosine (m6A) participates in various p…

The incidence and mortality rate of gastric cancer (GC) have remained high worldwide. Although some progress has been made in immunotargeted therapy, the treatment effect remains limited. With more attention has been paid to the immune pote…

BACKGROUND: Follicular microenvironment has been proposed as an important factor for oocyte grown and maturation. We sought to evaluate the oxidative stress and inflammatory levels in follicular fluid (FF) and association with embryo qualit…

BACKGROUND: Endometriosis (EM) is a benign, multifactorial, immune-mediated inflammatory disease that is characterized by persistent activation of the NF-κB signaling pathway and some features of malignancies, such as proliferation and lymp…

Abstract Background: Endometriosis is considered to be a complex gynecological disorder that affects the health and quality of life of affected women. The etiology and pathogenesis of endometriosis remain unclear, and few modifiable risk fa…

OBJECTIVE: Postpartum hemorrhage (PPH) is the leading cause of maternal morbidity and mortality. Identifying women who are at high risk of PPH is crucial for implementing early preventive and interventive strategies. This study aimed to exa…
