Ovarian cancer (OC) remains one of the most lethal gynecological malignancies, largely due to its late-stage diagnosis and high recurrence rates. Chronic inflammation is a critical driver of OC progression, contributing to immune evasion, t…
BackgroundAcetyl tributyl citrate (ATBC), a widely used plasticizer, has raised concerns regarding its reproductive toxicity. However, its molecular mechanisms in female infertility and ovarian damage remain poorly characterized. This study…
Nanomaterials are increasingly applied in biomedicine and have significant potential in reproductive medicine. However, because they can impact germ cells, use of nanomaterials could represent a "double-edged sword", whose benefits must be …
BackgroundPelvic organ prolapse (POP) significantly impacts women's quality of life, with laparoscopic sacrocolpopexy (LSC) considered the gold standard for treatment. However, LSC carries risks of complications, prompting exploration of al…
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)…
OBJECTIVE: This study investigates the therapeutic potential of low-molecular-weight heparin (LMWH) in acute pancreatitis (AP), focusing on its effects on lipid metabolism, inflammatory responses, and pancreatic tissue integrity. The study …
Endometriosis (EMS), a chronic inflammatory disease affecting approximately 10 % reproductive aged women, remains etiologically unclear. This study aims to investigate the role and underlying mechanisms of frizzled class receptor 7 (FZD7) i…
BackgroundDespite epidemiological studies linking phthalates to ovarian cancer, their multi-target molecular mechanisms remain unresolved, hindering biomarker discovery and preventive strategies. This study integrates network toxicology, mu…
BackgroundPrevious studies have identified that exposure to heavy metals increases the prevalence of congenital heart defects (CHDs); however, limited information exists regarding the association between combined exposure to barium (Ba) and…
BackgroundThe quality of in vitro matured (IVM) oocytes remains inferior to that of in vivo matured oocytes, likely due to DNA damage induced by the in vitro environment. Although rapamycin has been shown to improve the developmental compet…
INTRODUCTION: A significant proportion of women in their reproductive years are afflicted by endometriosis. And one of the major contributing factors to infertility linked to ovarian endometriosis is thought to be oocyte quality. The precis…
AIM: To explore whether preoperative vaginal dysbiosis influences the recurrence of endometrial polyps after hysteroscopic polypectomy. DESIGN: Retrospective-prospective observational cohort study. METHODS: A total of 679 patients from ou…
OBJECTIVE: This retrospective study investigated the prognostic significance and risk factors of benign pathologic types of background endometrium surrounding endometrial polyps (EPs). METHODS: We assessed 206 patients who underwent hyster…
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…
Endometriosis is a complex disorder characterized by genetic, immune, inflammatory, and multifactorial etiologies. Dietary fiber, a crucial component abundant in fruits, vegetables, and whole grains, is known for its diverse beneficial effe…
BACKGROUND: This study leveraged whole-genome resequencing to investigate the genetic architecture, population structure, and kinship dynamics of the Hetian sheep population. By integrating genomic data with reproductive trait analysis, we …
BackgroundUterine leiomyosarcoma(uLMS) is a rare malignant tumor with low clinical specificity and poor prognosis.There are many studies related to uLMS, however, there is still a lack of metrological analyses with generalization. This stud…
ObjectiveWe aimed to investigate the significance of autophagy proteins and their association with clinical data on pregnancy loss in polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS), while also constructing predictive models.MethodsThis study was a second…
This study aimed to evaluate the potential of capping protein (actin filament) muscle Z-line subunit β (CAPZB) messenger ribonucleic acid (mRNA) levels as a biomarker for distinguishing low-grade squamous intraepithelial lesions of the cerv…
BackgroundTo investigate the impact of chronic endometritis (CE) on the recurrence of endometrial polyps (EPs) in premenopausal women after transcervical resection of endometrial polyps (TCRP).MethodsThis prospective study enrolled 507 wome…
Background and aimsChronic enteropathy associated with SLCO2A1 gene is a rare intestinal disease caused by loss-of-function SLCO2A1 mutations, with clinical and genetic characteristics remaining largely unknown, especially in Chinese patien…
PURPOSE: To elucidatethe epigenetic alteration associated with impaired oogenesis in endometrioma using multi-omic approaches. METHODS: ATAC-seq was performed on the granulosa cells (GCs) of 6 patients (3 with endometrioma and 3 without). …
Early pregnancy loss (EPL) is a common event in human reproduction and is classified into histological subtypes such as hydropic abortion (HA) and hydatidiform moles, including complete hydatidiform moles (CHMs) and partial hydatidiform mol…
PurposeDecreased ovarian reserve function is mainly characterized by female endocrine disorders and fertility decline. Follicular fluid (FF) exosomal microRNAs (miRNAs) have been shown to regulate the function of granulosa cells (GCs). The …
BackgroundPrior research showed that elevated serum uric acid (SUA) levels in women with polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) before in vitro fertilization or intracytoplasmic sperm injection (IVF/ICSI) treatment can lead to a lower rate of liv…
