BACKGROUND: Polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) is a prevalent and heterogeneous endocrine disorder and a leading cause of female infertility. Impaired oocyte maturation in PCOS patients undergoing in vitro fertilization (IVF) adversely affect…

Endometrial cancer (EC) encompasses various histological and molecular subtypes, each with unique immune, endocrine and metabolic characteristics, resulting in varying responses to treatment. Although immunotherapy, endocrine therapy and me…

This study utilized the Surveillance, Epidemiology, and End Results (SEER) database to identify clinicopathological prognostic factors and develop a prognostic nomogram for predicting 1-, 3-, and 5-year overall survival (OS) in patients wit…

BACKGROUND Postoperative sleep disturbances are common after gynecological laparoscopic surgery, possibly delaying recovery. This study evaluated whether additional postoperative administration of dexmedetomidine hydrochloride nasal spray c…

Ovarian cancer poses a significant clinical challenge due to its asymptomatic onset and poor prognosis, highlighting the critical need for effective early detection strategies. This study developed a framework that integrates serum proteomi…

BACKGROUND: Pregnant women, as well as patients with endometriosis and some ovarian tumors, may experience a state of high estrogen levels. However, the role of high estrogen in platelet function and thrombosis remains controversial, which …

OBJECTIVE: To evaluate the association of high-intensity focused ultrasound (HIFU) combined with syndrome differentiation-based individualized traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) herbal therapy with 12-month clinical outcomes compared with H…

Objective: To investigate optimal long-term medication regimens combined with focused ultrasound ablation surgery (FUAS) for alleviating dysmenorrhea in patients with extrinsic adenomyosis. Methods: A retrospective research enrolled patient…

Uterine adenomyosis is a widespread condition that impairs female fertility, with elevated serum levels of cancer antigen 125 (CA125) and prolactin (PRL) often observed in affected women. Mifepristone has been investigated as a potential th…

OBJECTIVE: To investigate the relationship between third-trimester antenatal depression (AND) and the number of pregnancies, considering the possible moderating role of dysmenorrhea. METHODS: A total of 1,178 pregnant women in their third t…

ObjectiveTo evaluate the predictive value of deep myometrial invasion (DMI) for lymph node metastasis (LNM) in low-grade endometrioid carcinoma (LGEC) and its implications for surgical decision-making.MethodsA retrospective cohort study was…

Age-related fertility decline is an increasingly important challenge in reproductive medicine, driven largely by progressive ovarian aging. The aging ovary undergoes functional deterioration characterized by reduced ovarian reserve and decl…

Acute pancreatitis is a complex inflammatory disease with high morbidity and mortality, closely associated with intestinal barrier dysfunction, gut microbiota dysbiosis and abnormal lipid metabolism. Akkermansia muciniphila has been shown t…

Per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) are a class of synthetic chemicals notable for their high persistence and extensive applications. With the advancement of detection technologies in recent years, PFAS have been frequently identifie…

PurposeThe prevalence of hyperuricemia has been increasing worldwide. Most studies have focused on the influences of hyperuricemia on kidney damage and cardiovascular disease. However, the impacts of hyperuricemia on the liver remain unclea…

Early detection and effective chemotherapy for ovarian cancer, a serious gynecological malignancy, require further progress. This study aimed to investigate the molecular mechanism of ATPase H+-Transporting V1 Subunit B1 (ATP6V1B1) in ovari…

Adding plant extracts to diets to enhance sow performance and health is widely regarded as a healthy and sustainable practice. In promoting antibiotic-free farming, plant extracts have emerged as a leading solution for enhancing sow fertili…

BackgroundAs the precursor malignancy of endometrial cancer (EC), about 50% of endometrial complex atypical hyperplasia (CAH) will eventually progress to EC. Elucidating the underlying transformation mechanisms could aid in disease manageme…

Diabetic kidney disease (DKD) is recognized as one of the leading causes of chronic kidney disease (CKD) and end-stage kidney disease (ESKD) worldwide, representing a rapidly growing global public health concern. Despite significant advance…

Endometrial cancer stands as a prevalent malignant tumor of the female genital tract, while showing growing incidence statistics. Circular RNAs (circRNAs) demonstrate translational value as biomarkers and therapeutic targets in endometrial …

OBJECTIVE: To retrospectively analyze the safety and efficacy of high-intensity focused ultrasound (HIFU) combined with hysteroscopic insertion of Levonorgestrel-Releasing Intrauterine System the treatment of intrinsic adenomyosis. METHODS…

Ovarian cancer represents a malignancy characterized by high incidence and mortality rates, necessitating further elucidation of its underlying mechanisms. We conducted an analysis using bulk transcriptomic data of ovarian cancer and normal…

Lactate is an indispensable substance in various cellular physiological functions and plays regulatory roles in different aspects of energy metabolism and signal transduction. Lactylation (Kla), a key pathway through which lactate exerts it…

ObjectiveAdvanced gastric cancer remains highly refractory to therapy, with limited immunotherapy efficacy due to tumor microenvironment heterogeneity. Primary cilia, microtubule-based organelles involved in tumor progression, remain insuff…

Non-invasive liquid biopsy is a promising strategy for ovarian cancer (OC) detection. We evaluated the feasibility and efficacy of a multi-analyte approach combining circulating tumor DNA (ctDNA) detection with protein biomarkers for early …
