Abstract Background Endometriosis is a chronic inflammatory disorder affecting ~ 10% of reproductive-age women, often causing pelvic pain and infertility. Despite its prevalence, diagnosis remains delayed due to non-specific symptoms and l…

In recent years, perfluoroalkyl substances (PFASs), a family of fluorinated organic com pounds, have garnered much attention due to their reproductive and developmental toxicity in humans. Polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) is a prevalent end…

Abstract Background Placement of a levonorgestrel-releasing intrauterine device (LNG-IUD) is an effective treatment forpatients diagnosed with adenomyosis who had a strong desire to preserve the uterus and had no immediate fertility requir…

Adenomyosis is a poorly understood gynecological disorder lacking effective treatments. Controversy persists regarding "invagination" and "metaplasia" theories. The endometrial-myometrial junction (EMJ) connects the endometrium and myometri…

BACKGROUND: Second-trimester abortion is a critical issue in infertile women with polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) treated with assisted reproductive technology (ART), cervical incompetence (CI) may play a role. Although previous studies ha…

Melatonin, as an endocrine neurotransmitter, can promote the development of the ovary. Meanwhile, it also has protective effect on the ovary as an antioxidant. Thyroid hormone (TH) is essential for normal human reproductive function. Many s…

BACKGROUND: Surgery for adnexal mass does occur in pregnant women and therefore the choice of surgery during pregnancy needs to be carefully considered and studied. This study aimed to evaluate the safety and feasibility of Laparo-endoscopi…

Abstract This study aimed to elucidate the role of microRNA miR-92a-3p in the pathogenesis of adenomyosis. We focused on understanding how miR-92a-3p in exosomes derived from ectopic lesions influences the behavior of endometrial cells, DR…

P2X receptors, a subfamily of ligand-gated ion channels activated by extracellular ATP, are implicated in various physiopathological processes, including inflammation, pain perception, and immune and respiratory regulations. Structural dete…

The diagnosis of tuberculosis depends on detecting Mycobacterium tuberculosis (Mtb). Unfortunately, recognizing patients with extrapulmonary tuberculosis (EPTB) remains challenging due to the insidious clinical presentation and poor perform…

AIMS: Endometriosis is characterized by an abnormal immune microenvironment. Despite the extensive use of immune therapies, the application of immune checkpoint inhibitors in endometriosis lacks confidence due to the instability of preclini…

BACKGROUND: Nephrogenic adenoma (NA) is a rare benign tumor that can develop at any site of the urinary system, with the bladder being the most common, followed by the urethra, ureters, renal pelvises, etc. Currently, it is unclear what the…

BACKGROUND: In our previous investigation, we revealed a significant increase in the expression of microRNA-6881-3p (miR-6881-3p) in follicular fluid granulosa cells (GCs) from women with diminished ovarian reserve (DOR) compared to those w…

Ovarian fibrosis, characterized by the excessive proliferation of ovarian fibroblasts and the accumulation of extracellular matrix (ECM), serves as one of the primary causes of ovarian dysfunction. Despite the critical role of ovarian fibro…

The most common epigenetic modification of messenger RNAs (mRNAs) is N6-methyladenosine (m6A), which is mainly located near the 3' untranslated region of mRNAs, near the stop codons, and within internal exons. The biological effect of m6A i…

The inflammatory response is a natural immune response that prevents microbial invasion and repairs damaged tissues. However, excessive inflammatory responses can lead to various inflammation-related diseases, posing a significant threat to…

BACKGROUND: Reduced endometrium thickness and receptivity are two important reasons for recurrent implantation failure (RIF). In order to elucidate differences between these two types of endometrial defects in terms of molecular signatures,…

BACKGROUND: This study aimed to investigate the expression of serum miR-363-3p in patients with polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) and its predictive value for pregnancy after ovulation induction therapy. METHODS: The expression of serum miR…

OBJECTIVE: To compare the effects of barbed suture (BS) and conventional suture (CS) on perioperative conditions and ovarian function in the excision of ovarian mature cystic teratoma (MCT) by laparo-endoscopic single-site surgery (LESS). …

INTRODUCTION: The relationships between the outcome of frozen-thaw embryo transfer (FET) cycle and endometrial compaction were not quite consistent. OBJECTIVE: To analyze the relationship between the outcome of FET cycle and endometrial co…

BACKGROUND: Endometriosis mainly occurs in female pelvic organs. Endometriosis in the kidney is extremely rare. CASE PRESENTATION: We herein describe a case of a 19-year-old girl with occasional mild abdominal pain associated with an ectop…

Abstract Background: Endometriosis mainly occurs in the pelvic tissues and organs of women. Endometriosis in the kidney is extremely rare, and to the best of our knowledge, this article reports the first case of endometriosis in the ectopic…

BACKGROUND: Surgery in elder patients with intermural fibroids delays pregnancy, and GnRH-a can shrink uterine fibroids to a certain extent; therefore, for geriatric patients with fibroids, determining whether GnRH-a pretreatment before fro…

Ovarian clear cell carcinoma (OCCC) is a special histological type of epithelial ovarian cancer (EOC) that is not derived from epithelial cells of the ovarian or fallopian tube as the most common type of ovarian cancer, high-grade serous ov…
