In this multicenter, non-inferiority, randomized trial, we randomly assigned 992 women undergoing in-vitro fertilization (IVF) with a good prognosis (aged 20-40, ≥3 transferrable cleavage-stage embryos) to strategies of blastocyst-stage (n …
CONTEXT: Polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS), a common endocrine disorder in women of reproductive age, is closely associated with chronic low-grade inflammation and metabolic disturbances. In PCOS mice, dietary inulin has been demonstrated to…
ETHNOPHARMACOLOGICAL RELEVANCE: Reproductive ability of sows is a primary element influencing the development of pig farming. Herbal extracts of Angelica sinensis (Oliv.) Diels, Astragalus mongholicus Bunge, Eucommia ulmoides Oliv., and Pol…
Cervical cancer (CC) is the fourth most common cancer among women worldwide. NLR Family CARD Domain Containing 5 (NLRC5) plays an important role in tumorigenesis. However, its effect and mechanism in CC remains unclear. In this study, we ai…
The adverse effect of ambient PM2.5 exposure on very early pregnancy (VEP) remains controversial among epidemiological studies but is supported by toxicological evidence. We adopted a multicenter retrospective cohort of 141,040 cycles to ev…
BACKGROUND: The relationship between sodium-glucose cotransporter 2 (SGLT2) inhibitors and prostate cancer is still unknown. Although these inhibitors can influence tumor glycolysis, the underlying mechanism requires further exploration. M…
Ovarian cancer (OC) is the most prevalent and fatal malignancy of the female reproductive system, with the majority of patients diagnosed at an advanced stage due to the lack of early screening. Despite surgery and chemotherapy being the st…
BACKGROUND: Unexplained recurrent pregnancy loss (URPL) is a clinical dilemma in reproductive fields. Its diagnosis is mainly exclusionary after extensive clinical examination, and some of the patients may still face the risk of miscarriage…
BACKGROUND: Currently, awareness about platelet count (PC) and its consequences for perinatal outcome have increased, but there is little reliable evidence on fecundability. METHODS: Based on the National Free Pre-conception Check-up Proje…
ETHNOPHARMACOLOGICAL RELEVANCE: Ding-kun-dan (DKD), as one of well-known traditional Chinese medicine (TCM), is considered as an effective prescription to regulate menstruation, benefit Qi and nourish the blood. Previous studies had showed …
BACKGROUND: Menopause significantly impacts the immune system. Postmenopausal women are more susceptible to infection. Nonetheless, the pattern of change in peripheral white blood cell counts around the menopause remains poorly understood. …
N6-methyladenosine (m6A) is involved in most biological processes and actively participates in the regulation of reproduction. According to recent research, long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs) and their m6A modifications are involved in reproduc…
BACKGROUND: Uterine cystic adenomyosis (CA) is a unique form of adenomyosis with a single or fused lumen of the cystic space exceeding a diameter of 1 cm that typically results in progressively worsening dysmenorrhea. In most cases, the pro…
OBJECTIVE: This study aimed to explore the efficacy of immunocytochemistry in diagnosing abdominopelvic washings (APWs) and evaluate the superiority of cytology combined with immunocytochemistry over cytology alone. MATERIAL AND METHODS: D…
BACKGROUND: The 25-hydroxyvitamin D3 (25 (OH) D3) is crucial for follicular development. This study aimed to investigate the relationship between the level of 25 (OH) D3 in endometriosis patients, pregnancy outcomes of in vitro fertilizatio…
The deregulation of fatty acid metabolism plays a pivotal role in cancer. Our objective is to construct a prognostic model for patients with endometrial carcinoma (EC) based on genes related to fatty acid metabolism-related genes (FAMGs). R…
BACKGROUND: Bronchopulmonary dysplasia (BPD) is the most challenging chronic lung disease for prematurity, with difficulties in early identification. Given lncRNA emerging as a novel biomarker and the regulator of ferroptosis, this study ai…
ProblemDoes the presence of hydrothorax suggest that severe ovarian hyperstimulation syndrome (OHSS) is associated with more severe conditions and worse pregnancy outcomes?Method of studyThe clinical data for 868 hospital patients with seve…
Abstract Background: To study whether ILs/TNFs in the follicular fluid (FF) of women with EMs are responsible for impaired follicular development or (and) ovulation or not, and then to explore the underlying mechanisms. Methods: follicular …
Abstract Background Observational studies have shown associations between endometriosis and cardiovascular disease (CVD). But residual confounding and the potential for reverse causality are inevitable in such routine observational studies.…
To study whether hydroxychloroquine (HCQ) therapy increases the risks of cataracts in patients with rheumatoid arthritis (RA). In this retrospective cohort study, 2821 treatment-naive RA patients, collected from the Longitudinal Health Insu…
OBJECTIVE: To compare the changes of metabolites between Low-level light therapy (LLLT) and combined oral contraceptive (COC) after treatment of primary dysmenorrhea (PD), and to compare and analyze the biological and biochemical effects of…
Understanding the microflora inhabiting the reproductive tract is important for a better understanding of female physiology and reproductive health. The endometrial fluid from mice in three reproductive stages (A: Unproductive mice; B: Post…
ObjectivesThis study aims to perform a bibliometric analysis of functional dyspepsia (FD), which includes visualizing bibliographic information, in order to identify prevailing study themes, topics of interest, contributing journals, countr…
BACKGROUND: The P53 gene is critical to the onset and progression of cancers. Currently, relevant study findings indicate that the p53 gene may have a strong association with the risk of endometriosis, but these findings have not been unite…
