Benzophenone ultraviolet light filters (BPs) are high-production-volume chemicals extensively used in personal care products, leading to widespread human exposure. Given their estrogenic properties, the potential health risks associated wit…

ObjectiveTo investigate the relationship between dietary inflammatory index (DII) scores and infertility in US adults aged 18 to 45.MethodsData were gathered from the 2013-2018 National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (NHANES). In t…

The existing data do not consistently support the link between elderly adults' waist circumferences and sleep disorders. This study aimed to evaluate whether waist circumference was connected with sleep disorder in the elderly. This cross-s…

Cardiovascular diseases (CVDs) remain the leading cause of death worldwide, and therefore become one of the most prominent global public health concerns. Puerarin, an isoflavone glycoside derived from Pueraria lobata (Willd.) Ohwi, has been…

BACKGROUND: Endometriosis is a chronic inflammatory disease of women during their reproductive years. The relationship between the severity and location of endometriosis and menstruation, ovulation, reproductive function, and mode of delive…

Abstract Background Placement of a levonorgestrel-releasing intrauterine device (LNG-IUD) is an effective treatment forpatients diagnosed with adenomyosis who had a strong desire to preserve the uterus and had no immediate fertility requir…

Abstract Endometriosis is an inflammation-associated disease, primarily but not always associated with abnormal immune system function and expression of immune factors. The microbiota of the female reproductive tract, including the vagina …

IntroductionInvasive Stratified Mucin-producing Carcinoma (ISMC) of the cervix is a newly named cervical adenocarcinoma associated with Human Papilloma virus (HPV). Due to its relative rarity, clinical data, pathological features, and molec…

BackgroundThe utilization of a double trigger, involving the co-administration of gonadotropin-releasing hormone agonist (GnRH-a) and human chorionic gonadotropin (hCG) for final oocyte maturation, is emerging as a novel approach in gonadot…

Study objectiveTo evaluate the efficacy and pregnancy outcomes of intrauterine balloon and intrauterine contraceptive devices in the prevention of adhesion reformation following hysteroscopic adhesiolysis in infertile women with moderate to…

Early pregnancy loss (EPL) is a common event in human reproduction and is classified into histological subtypes such as hydropic abortion (HA) and hydatidiform moles, including complete hydatidiform moles (CHMs) and partial hydatidiform mol…

Telocytes (TCs) have been identified in various animals. However, information on TCs in the embryos is still very limited. In this work, the developing skin of the silky fowl was sampled for TCs identification by histology, immunohistochemi…

BackgroundThe basal luteinizing hormone (LH) and the prior LH to follicle-stimulating hormone (FSH) ratio (LH/FSH) in polycystic ovarian syndrome (PCOS) are generally higher than those in non-PCOS patients and the general population. The po…

OBJECTIVE: To investigate the effect of GnRH agonist (GnRH-a) down-regulation prior to hormone replacement treatment (HRT) to prepare the endometrium in frozen embryo transfer (FET) cycles in women of different ages. METHODS: This was a re…

ObjectivesTo explore the relationship between different types of physical activity and female infertility.MethodsThis study analyzed data from 2,796 female participants aged 18-44 years in the United States, obtained from the National Healt…

BackgroundHysterectomy places a considerable physical and mental burden on young female patients with congenital cervical and complete vaginal atresia. Thus, it is necessary to develop a method to detach the obstruction and simultaneously p…

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…

BACKGROUND: Prior observational research identified dyslipidemia as a risk factor for endometriosis (EMS) but the causal relationship remains unestablished due to inherent study limitations. METHODS: Genome-wide association study data for …

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…

BackgroundOxidative stress has been implicated in the pathogenesis of uterine leiomyoma (ULM) with an increasing incidence. This study aimed to identify potential oxidative stress-related biomarkers in ULM using transcriptome data integrate…

BACKGROUND: Insulin like growth factor II mRNA binding protein 3 (IGF2BP3) has been implicated in numerous inflammatory and cancerous conditions. However, its precise molecular mechanisms in endometriosis (EMs) remains unclear. The aim of t…

BackgroundTo identify incidence and underlying risk factors for unsuspected placenta accreta spectrum (PAS) and compare the maternal outcomes between suspected and unsuspected cases in three large academic referral centers.MethodsA retrospe…

BACKGROUND: Although autoimmune abnormalities are common in patients with endometriosis, it is unknown whether patients with endometriosis have a higher risk of developing antiphospholipid syndrome (APS). METHODS: We conducted a retrospect…
