BACKGROUND: Emerging evidence suggests microbial dysbiosis may contribute to gynaecological pathologies, including endometriosis and recurrent implantation failure (RIF). The vaginal microbiome is well-characterised, with Lactobacillus-domi…
STUDY QUESTION: Does the analysis of endometrial microbes provide the same information when using DNA or RNA sequencing-based techniques? SUMMARY ANSWER: DNA vs RNA-based microbial analysis techniques demonstrated significant microbial com…
BACKGROUND: A didelphic uterus represents a unique and infrequent congenital condition in which a woman possesses two distinct uteri, each with its own cervix. This anomaly arises due to partial or incomplete merging of the Müllerian ducts …
Abstract Study question What is the entire metabolomic profile of receptive-phase human endometrium and does the metabolic composition differ between women with different infertility diagnosis? Summary answer Human endometrium contains 925 …
Current knowledge suggests that the uterus harbours its own microbiota, where the microbes could influence the uterine functions in health and disease; however, the core uterine microbial composition and the host-microbial relationships rem…
PURPOSE: According to the latest ART report for Europe, about 13% of pregnancies after frozen embryo transfer are multiple. Our objective was to analyse the impact on the multiple pregnancy rate of two eSFET (elective single frozen embryo t…
BACKGROUND: Pelvic inflammatory disease with progression to pelvic abscess is a rare complication after oocyte retrieval during in vitro fertilization cycles. However, in patients with endometriosis the risk appears to be increased. Many au…
