PURPOSE: This study aimed to compare the clinical pregnancy rates of hysterosalpingography (HSG) with water-based contrast and hysterosalpingo-contrast sonography (HyCoSy) to investigate their impact on fertility outcomes in women with endo…

Endometriosis is a chronic inflammatory estrogen-dependent inflammatory disorder. Theobromine has been implicated in diverse health benefits, including anti-inflammatory and vasodilatory properties. However, the precise association between …

Abstract Adenomyosis is a prevalent and non-cancerous uterine disease which can significantly impaired the fertility of reproductive-age women. However, the etiology, as well as the cellular and molecular mechanism underlying adenomyosis re…

INTRODUCTION: Adenomyosis is a prevalent gynaecological disorder affecting women of reproductive age, yet the underlying etiology and cellular-molecular mechanisms driving its pathogenesis remain poorly understood. Gonadotropin-releasing ho…

Endometriosis is a complex disorder characterized by genetic, immune, inflammatory, and multifactorial etiologies. Dietary fiber, a crucial component abundant in fruits, vegetables, and whole grains, is known for its diverse beneficial effe…

BACKGROUND: Caffeine has been suggested to have a relationship with endometriosis as a widely consumed psychoactive substance, although findings are inconsistent. OBJECTIVE: This study explored the potential associations and threshold effe…

BACKGROUND: Endometriosis is a multifaceted disorder with genetic, immune, inflammatory, and multifactorial origins. Vitamin B6 serves as a pivotal coenzyme in various metabolic pathways involving lipids, hemes, nucleic acids, proteins, and…

BACKGROUND: Endometriosis is a complex disorder with genetic, immune, inflammatory, and multifactorial etiologies. Zinc, an essential trace element, plays a crucial role in various physiological processes. Dysregulation or deficiency of zin…

BACKGROUND: Previous studies have suggested that oil-based contrast agents used during hysterosalpingography (HSG) in infertile patients can enhance fertility. However, limited research has investigated the effect of oil-based contrast medi…

RATIONALE: Uterine adenomyomas (UAs) are common benign tumors, usually not exceeding 280 g or the weight of the uterus at 12 weeks gestation. Postmenopausal giant UAs of diameter larger than 20 cm are rare, as well as steatosis, but curable…

BACKGROUND: Thyroid autoimmunity (TAI) is associated with infertility and complications during pregnancy. However, the prevalence of thyroid autoantibodies in women with infertility remains unclear due to variability in study designs, sampl…

IntroductionInfertility affects 8-12% of couples worldwide, with 15-30% classified as unexplained infertility (UI). Thyroid autoimmunity (TAI), the most common autoimmune disorder in women of reproductive age, may impact fertility and pregn…

Upper ureteral stricture is a relatively rare but increasingly encountered condition in clinical practice. While simple stricture can often be addressed through endoluminal treatment or surgical reconstruction, complex upper ureteral strict…

BackgroundOvarian cancer (OC) is one of the most lethal gynecologic malignancies and a leading cause of death in the world. Thus, this necessitates identification of prognostic biomarkers which will be helpful in its treatment.MethodsThe ge…

The aim of the present study was to identify predictive factors for cervical cancer (CC) progression using a multistage approach. The present study obtained data from 390 healthy women and 259 patients with cervical cancer between June 2012…

OBJECTIVE: To retrospectively analyze the adverse effects of high-intensity focused ultrasound (HIFU) in management of benign uterine diseases. MATERIALS AND METHODS: From 2011 to 2017, 27,053 patients with benign uterine diseases were trea…

Endometrial mesenchymal stem cells (enMSCs) are a class of novel adult stem cells with self-renewal capacity, differentiation potential, low immunogenicity, low tumorigenicity, and other biological characteristics. Since the discovery of en…

ObjectivesTo investigate the relationship between the features of magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) on T2 weighted images (T2WI) and the therapeutic efficacy of high intensity focused ultrasound (HIFU) on adenomyosis.Materials and methodsFro…

Nonspecific vaginitis (NSV), also named bacterial vaginosis, is one of the most common genital system diseases in women during their reproductive years. The specific pathogenic mechanism of NSV is not clear yet. Upon the balance alteration,…

The Fc receptor-like 3 (FCRL3) gene was reported to be linked to a variety of autoimmune diseases, including endometriosis-related infertility. However, this linkage has not been studied in Chinese population and there has been no meta-anal…

OBJECTIVE: To evaluate the effects of ultrasound-guided high-intensity focused ultrasound (HIFU) on adenomyosis. METHODS: In a retrospective analysis, data were reviewed from 202 patients with adenomyosis who underwent ultrasound-guided HIF…
