OBJECTIVE: To evaluate the diagnostic value of the nine Morphological Uterus Sonographic Assessment (MUSA)-defined ultrasonographic features for adenomyosis and develop an ultrasound scoring system to improve diagnostic accuracy. METHODS: …

BACKGROUNDS: The levonorgestrel-releasing intrauterine system (LNG-IUS) is an effective treatment for adenomyosis; however, its therapeutic benefits are frequently limited by a high expulsion risk. This study aimed to compare the safety and…

BACKGROUND: Currently, CA125 combined with other biomarkers significantly outperforms CA125 alone in diagnosing endometriosis (EM), but the efficiency of combined diagnosis remains unclear. This network meta-analysis compared the accuracy o…

Ovarian granulosa cells (GCs), as key components of follicles, orchestrate follicular development and ovarian maturation through bidirectional communication with oocytes and through hormone synthesis. Their dysfunction substantially contrib…

Blood-based liquid biopsies hold transformative potential for non-invasive cancer management, but current approaches relying on rare circulating tumor components limit their broad clinical utility. Platelets, abundant in blood and mediating…

Adenomyosis (AM) is a common gynecological disorder with high prevalence among women of childbearing age. Although hysterectomy is the definitive treatment, it is considered unsuitable for patients who wish to preserve fertility, creating a…

Despite recent advancements in diagnostic techniques and infertility treatments, the precise underlying cause of infertility remains elusive in numerous cases. Elevated immune cell levels in the reproductive tract frequently result in decre…

BACKGROUND: The SRU consensus on pelvic ultrasound proposed standardized augmented ultrasound, but its validity and indirect signs' role require validation. This study will explore the application value of this consensus in deep endometrios…

Polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) is one of the most common reproductive disorders in women and severely impairs fertility. Extant clinical studies can only provide indirect and plausible evidence to support endometrial dysfunction as an ova…

BackgroundInfertility poses a significant health challenge for reproductive-aged women globally and could be shaped by both genetic risks and lifestyle factors. Existing studies predominantly focus on individual lifestyle components, while …

IntroductionAlpha-linolenic acid (ALA), an essential polyunsaturated fatty acid, modulates gastrointestinal microbiota and host immunity, yet its regulatory mechanisms in dairy cows remain unclear.MethodsThis study investigated how dietary …

ObjectiveTo identify the determinants influencing clinical pregnancy outcomes in frozen-thawed embryo transfer (FET) cycles.MethodsA retrospective analysis was conducted on patients who underwent FET at the Department of Reproductive Geneti…

OBJECTIVE: To study the MRI characteristics of adenomyosis in secondary infertility patients, and to analyze the factors affecting pregnancy after High-intensity focused ultrasound (HIFU). METHODS: Clinical data of 388 patients with adenom…

PURPOSE: To investigate the impact of changing to the PPOS protocol in the population with a premature progesterone increase (≥ 0.9 ng/mL) from the antagonist protocol on the clinical outcomes. METHODS: The study was a retrospective cohort,…

Total hysterectomy is a commonly performed gynecological procedure used to treat uterine pathologies. This study aimed to establish a total hysterectomy mouse model and investigate the effect of estradiol valerate on humoral immune function…

OBJECTIVE: To assess the effect of ovarian endometriotic cysts on the efficacy of high intensity focused ultrasound (HIFU) in patients with adenomyosis. METHODS: Based on magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) findings, patients were categorized…

OBJECTIVE: The objective of this study was to assess the efficacy of focused ultrasound ablation surgery (FUAS) in treating patients with adenomyosis and coexisting pelvic adhesions. MATERIALS AND METHODS: A total of 396 patients diagnosed…

IntroductionA transient window of uterine receptivity ensures that embryos implant in an optimal endometrial environment. Failure to establish or premature closure of the implantation window is thought to be a major cause of infertility, wh…

BackgroundEndoscopic gallbladder-preserving cholecystolithotomy (EGPC) has become an alternative option for treating cholecystolithiasis. However, developing a new method of EGPC in which the gallbladder wall is not damaged remains a challe…

BackgroundOvarian sex cord-stromal tumors (OSCSTs) are a rare and heterogeneous group of ovarian neoplasms, encompassing various subtypes such as ovarian thecoma, fibroma (including cellular fibroma), and ovarian granulosa cell tumors (OGCT…

As one of the three major malignant tumors in women, the morbidity of endometrial cancer is second only to that of cervical cancer and is increasing yearly. Its etiological mechanism is not clear, and the risk factors are numerous and commo…

Ovarian cancer is one of the most lethal gynecological malignancies and is often associated with fluid build-up in the peritoneal cavity, known as ascites. Nearly one-third of patients with ovarian cancer present with ascites at the time of…

Background and aimsLaparoscopic cholecystectomy (LC) often causes significant postoperative pain. While low-pressure pneumoperitoneum (8 mmHg) may reduce pain, optimal patient selection remains unclear. This trial compared pain outcomes bet…

Cuproptosis is a kind of programmed cell death in which copper reacts with the cycloaliphatic component of the tricarboxylic acid (TCA) cycle. In this study, we devised a predictive model and a theoretical framework to examine the variation…
