Clinical application of mesenchymal stem cells for endometrial repair has been hampered by variability in cell quality, large-scale production, and uncertainty regarding the optimal delivery route. In this study, we investigated the therape…
Infertility affects ~1 in 6 people of reproductive age and remains difficult to treat because causes are heterogeneous and diagnostics are incomplete. Recent evidence reframes the female reproductive tract as a low-biomass but biologically …
BACKGROUND: Infertility affects many couples worldwide, and the accurate assessment of endometrial receptivity (ER) is critical. However, conventional ultrasound has limited predictive value. Multiparameter quantitative ultrasound is a prom…
AIM: To evaluate the predictive value of serum beta-human chorionic gonadotropin (β-hCG) measured at 11-14 days after frozen-thawed embryo transfer (FET) for clinical pregnancy, and to explore the potential associations of blastocyst transf…
BACKGROUND: Abnormalities in ureteral motility often precede morphological changes, and early subtle lesions are easily overlooked, thereby increasing the risk of renal impairment. However, existing imaging assessments tend to focus on qual…

Gynecological cancers present significant therapeutic challenges due to heterogeneity, drug resistance, and the lack of precise diagnostic tools. Selenium (Se), an essential trace element with intrinsic anticancer activity, has emerged as a…
BACKGROUND: Adenomyosis (AM) is a common gynecological disorder in reproductive-age women, with impaired endometrial receptivity as a key contributor to infertility. However, a comprehensive single-cell atlas of the eutopic endometrium duri…
Ovarian cancer (OC) is a leading cause of gynecologic cancer mortality, with survival prediction limited by existing prognostic models that fail to capture tumor heterogeneity. Conventional methods lack precision for individualized risk ass…
Endometriosis is a common gynecological disease associated with pelvic pain and infertility. Despite several existing theories, the etiology and molecular mechanisms of endometriosis remain to be investigated. Here we report that transcript…
Short-term IVF (S-IVF) is a fertilization approach to co-incubate the sperm and oocyte for a short duration and denude the cumulus cells afterwards. The S-IVF combined with early rescue intracytoplasmic sperm injection (ICSI) strategy can r…
Endometriosis (EMS) is characterized by a disrupted peritoneal immune microenvironment where alternatively activated anti-inflammatory (M2) macrophage polarization and impaired phagocytosis promote lesion survival. Single-cell RNA-sequencin…
Globally, ovarian cancer remains a leading cause of gynecologic cancer death. This poor prognosis is primarily attributed to advanced disease at diagnosis, a high propensity for recurrence, and the inadequate therapeutic efficacy of current…
High-intensity focused ultrasound (HIFU) has emerged as a safe and effective tumor treatment modality, harnessing thermal effects to induce tissue coagulation, cavitation effects to cause liquefaction, or a synergistic combination of both m…
BACKGROUND: Dysmenorrhea is a cramping pain during menstrual period and the leading cause for recurrent short-term school absenteeism among adolescent girls. However, evidence on the factors associated with the occurrence of dysmenorrhea, s…
BACKGROUND: To assess and compare the efficiency and outcomes between prone split-leg position and lithotomy position in posterior uterine myomectomy by transvaginal natural orifice transluminal endoscopic surgery (vNOTES). METHODS: 33 pat…
OBJECTIVES: To explore the clinical relevant factors of patients with recurrent and non-recurrent abdominal wall endometriosis after surgical treatment, to further study the relevant risk factors of abdominal wall endometriosis recurrence, …
Nab-paclitaxel plus gemcitabine (AG) is the standard first-line chemotherapy for advanced or metastatic pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma and has limited efficacy. This phase 1b/2 study aimed to evaluate SHR-1701 (an anti-PD-L1/TGF-βRII fusi…
BACKGROUND: Prior research indicates a potential link between dyslipidemia and endometriosis (EMs). However, the relationship between remnant cholesterol (RC) and EMs has not been thoroughly investigated. Consequently, looking into and clar…
PURPOSE: This study aimed to assess whether different endometrial preparation regimens-natural cycle (NC), hormone replacement therapy (HRT), and gonadotropin-releasing hormone agonist pretreatment followed by HRT (GnRH-a + HRT)-are associa…
RATIONALE: Sjögren syndrome (SS) is a systemic autoimmune disease with a variety of clinical presentations. Successful pregnancies and deliveries among these patients remain challenging. This manuscript describes a case report of diagnosis,…
Traumatic brain injury (TBI) is a recognized global public health problem. However, there are still limitations in the available therapeutic approaches and a lack of clinically effective drugs. Therefore, an in-depth exploration of the seco…
Evidence have indicated a correlation between sleep disorders and endometriosis, but the causal relationship remains uncertain. This study utilized Mendelian randomization (MR) approach to investigate the causal associations between sleep d…
PROBLEM: The relationship between abortion and endometriosis (EMS) has been inconsistent in previous observational studies and remains controversial. We intended to examine the causal relationship between abortion and EMS. METHODS OF STUDY…
BACKGROUND: Fibrogenesis is a common pathological feature of endometriotic lesions and contributes to the development of endometriosis-associated chronic pelvic pain and infertility. TGF-β is a critical factor in the induction of fibrogenes…
