OBJECTIVE: To analyze the efficacy of high-intensity focused ultrasound (HIFU) for adenomyosis and postoperative recurrence and its influencing factors. METHODS: Clinical and follow-up data of 308 patients with adenomyosis who were treated…
BACKGROUND: Endometriosis is a common gynecological disease that affects approximately 5 %∼10 % of reproductive-aged women. Zinc (Zn), selenium (Se), copper (Cu), cobalt (Co) and molybdenum (Mo) are essential trace elements and are very imp…
Defects of human trophoblast cells may induce miscarriage (abnormal early embryo loss), which is generally regulated by lncRNAs. Ferroptosis is a newly identified iron-dependent programmed cell death. Hypoxia is an important and unavoidable…
BACKGROUND: Myocardial injury has been regarded as a major cause of several heart diseases. Long non-coding RNA (lncRNA) has emerged as a key regulator in a wide array of diseases. AIM OF THE STUDY: This study aims to explore the role of Z…
Vitamin D3 plays a crucial role in female reproduction. As research progresses, the mechanisms of action of vitamin D3 on follicular development have been widely discussed. Firstly, key enzymes involved in the synthesis and metabolism of vi…
OBJECTIVE: To explore the cycle characteristics and pregnancy outcomes of progestin-primed ovarian stimulation (PPOS) using fixed versus degressive doses of medroxyprogesterone acetate (MPA) in conjunction with letrozole (LE) in infertile w…
BACKGROUND: In an in vitro fertilization (IVF) cycle, the embryo ends its wandering time and begins the process of implantation into the uterine cavity on the seventh day after oocyte pick-up (OPU + 7), which is closer than OPU + 5 to the t…
BACKGROUND: Previous investigations have reported that controlling nutritional (CONUT) status scores, incorporating total cholesterol (TC) and serum albumin (SA) values, and total lymphocyte (LY) counts, are reliable malignant tumor predict…
Small-cell neuroendocrine carcinoma (SCNEC) of the ovary is a gynecological malignancy characterized by rapid progression and poor prognosis. SCNEC is divided into primary and metastatic tumor. Primary ovarian neuroendocrine cancer is extre…
BACKGROUND: Endometrial stromal sarcoma (ESS) is a uterine stromal tumor with a very low incidence, accounting for 10-15% of all uterine stromal malignancies and 0.2% of all uterine malignancies. The most common extrauterine location of ESS…
Ovarian cancer is the most lethal cancer among women worldwide. Early diagnosis of ovarian cancer is a considerable challenge for gynecological oncologists. The exosome is a new emerging biomarker pool for cancer. Herein, we apply integrati…
OBJECTIVE: To evaluate the efficacy and prognosis of fertility-sparing treatment on endometrial cancer (EC) and atypical endometrial hyperplasia (AEH) patients with BMI ≥ 30 kg/m2. METHODS: A total of 102 EC or AEH patients with obesity wh…
OBJECTIVE: To investigate whether cystectomy or ablation for endometrioma has less impact on ovarian reserve as evaluated by antral follicle count (AFC) and antimüllerian hormone (AMH) levels. DESIGN: Systematic review and meta-analysis. …
BACKGROUND: NeiyiKangfu tablets (NYKF) are widely used clinically for the treatment of endometriosis (EMS), whose mechanism of action has been extensively studied. Researchers have found that NYKF may control the development of ectopic lesi…
OBJECTIVE: To evaluate the efficacy and safety of gonadotropin-releasing hormone agonist (GnRHa) combined with a levonorgestrel-releasing intrauterine device (LNG-IUD) or aromatase inhibitor (letrozole) in women with endometrial carcinoma o…
BACKGROUND: This study aimed to summarize and analyze clinical characteristics and reproductive outcomes in postoperative deep infiltrating endometriosis (DIE). METHODS: This retrospective cohort study included 55 reproductive-aged patient…
OBJECTIVES: The aim of the study was to explore the rate of upstaging after complete surgical staging among patients with apparent FIGO stage I ovarian mucinous carcinoma. METHODS: Ovarian mucinous carcinoma patients with surgical treatmen…
BACKGROUND: The gonadotropin-releasing hormone agonist (GnRH-a) has been used in in vitro fertilization/intracytoplasmic sperm injection (IVF/ICSI) cycles for a long time. This paper evaluates the efficacy and safety of two commonly used pr…
Declining female fertility has become a global health concern. It results partially from an abnormal circadian clock caused by unhealthy diet and sleep habits in modern life. The circadian clock system is a hierarchical network consisting o…
OBJECTIVE: This study aimed to compare the clinical outcomes for transfer of Day 3 (D3) double cleavage-stage embryos and Day 5/6 (D5/6) single blastocysts in the frozen embryo transfer (FET) cycle to formulate a more appropriate embryo tra…
Previously the potential therapeutic action of ferulic acid, ligustrazine and tetrahydropalmatine (FLT) are discovered with unclear mechanism in rat autograft endometriosis. However, the effect of FLT on endometrial cells and allograft endo…
BACKGROUND: The design of the combination of ferulic acid, ligustrazine and tetrahydropalmatine (FLT) is inspired by the Chinese herbal prescription Foshou San. Previous work has shown that FLT inhibited endometriosis growth in rat autograf…
BACKGROUND: Enhanced recovery after surgery (ERAS) pathways have been shown to improve clinical outcomes after surgery. Considering the importance of patient experience for patients with benign surgery, this study evaluated whether improved…
OBJECTIVE: To evaluate the efficacy and prognosis of fertility-sparing re-treatment on patients with recurrent endometrial cancer (EC) and atypical endometrial hyperplasia (AEH) who wish to preserve their uterus after complete remission (CR…
Studies have reported that non-receptive endometrium or abnormal decidualization was closely related to recurrent implantation failure (RIF). MLL1 is a histone H3 lysine 4 trimethylation (H3K4me3) transferase that regulates the transcriptio…
