BACKGROUND: Endometriosis and major depressive disorder (MDD) pose significant global health burdens. Despite pathophysiological overlaps, existing epidemiological studies predominantly examine their unidirectional associations, often const…

Abstract Background Synchronous multiple primary malignancies (SMPMs) of the uterus and ovary are uncommon and diagnostically challenging, as they must be distinguished from metastatic spread of a single primary tumor. Accurate assessme…

Endometriosis is a complex gynecological disorder with prominent cellular heterogeneity, and its key pathogenic cell subsets and core molecular mechanisms remain elusive, which restricts the development of effective therapeutic strategies. …

BACKGROUND: Synchronous multiple primary malignancies (SMPMs) involving the uterus and ovary pose significant diagnostic challenges, particularly in distinguishing independent primary tumors from metastatic disease when tumors exhibit overl…

Chronic pelvic pain is a common and multifactorial clinical syndrome that markedly impairs quality of life in both men and women. Superior hypogastric plexus block (SHGPB) is an effective minimally invasive treatment. The sacral notch appro…

Alternative splicing (AS) plays a crucial role in various diseases, yet its functional significance in endometriosis remains poorly understood. In this study, we analyzed RNA-seq data from 146 endometriosis patients and 114 control endometr…

OBJECTIVE: To assess the safety and efficacy of percutaneous intrauterine hydrodissection as a protective technique during microwave ablation (MWA) of uterine fibroids adjacent to the endometrium. MATERIALS AND METHODS: A retrospective ana…

Pregnant women undergoing assisted reproductive technology (ART) have an increased risk of gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM), potentially linked to altered immune regulation, but the underlying circulating immune features remain unclear. …

BackgroundIncreasing pancreatitis incidence among children and adolescents has emerged as a public health challenge. Using data from the Global Burden of Disease (GBD) Study 2021, this study aims to analyze the global, regional, and nationa…

BACKGROUND: Endometriosis is a chronic inflammatory disorder affecting reproductive-aged women. The Dietary Inflammatory Index (DII), a measure of diet-related inflammation, has been implicated in various inflammatory diseases, but its role…

BackgroundIn clinical practice, borderline seromucinous ovarian tumor (SMBT) is hard to differentiate preoperatively on ultrasound.CaseWe presented a case of SMBT. In this case, microvascular imaging, particularly three-dimensional (3D) mic…

IntroductionLow-grade endometrial stromal sarcoma (LGESS) is a rare malignant tumor of the uterus, characterized by slow growth. Early-stage LGESS is associated with favorable survival, but it has a high recurrence rate. The primary treatme…

Endometrium, the lining of the uterus, changes dynamically in response to fluctuations in ovarian hormones. The proper endocrine environment regulates endometrial functions: menstruation and supporting pregnancy. Obesity is closely related …

PurposeTo evaluate the relationships between the sperm DNA fragmentation index (DFI) and semen parameters and its application in fresh embryos via in vitro fertilization and transfer.MethodsA retrospective propensity score matching (PSM) st…

ObjectiveThis study aimed to identify tumor-derived DNA in Papanicolaou (Pap) smears and plasma specimens from patients with endometrial cancer or endometrial intraepithelial neoplasia (EC/EIN).MethodsTumor tissue, peripheral blood, and Pap…

OBJECTIVE: To evaluate various body fat indicators under weight management on the time to complete response (CR) in overweight patients undergoing fertility-sparing treatment for endometrial cancer (EC) or atypical hyperplasia (AEH). METHOD…

BackgroundKuntai capsules, a traditional Chinese medicine, are speculated to improve the treatment outcomes of patients with ovarian reserve dysfunction (DOR), but existing evidence is limited.ObjectiveTo investigate the effects of Kuntai c…

BACKGROUND: Fresh embryo transfer reduces waiting time and minimizes embryo cryodamage for endometriosis (EM) patients. The current prediction models for fresh embryo transfer outcomes in EM primarily rely on logistic regression, with limit…

Ovarian endometrioma (OEM), a particularly severe form of endometriosis, is an oestrogen-dependent condition often associated with pain and infertility. The mechanisms by which OEM impairs fertility, particularly through its direct impact o…

RAD18 is a crucial mismatch repair gene associated with the post-replication repair, and genetic variations in RAD18 gene are closely related to tumorigenesis. We selected 6 RAD18 SNP and performed mismatch amplification PCR on 650 cases of…

Endometriosis affects nearly 10 % of reproductive-age women and is characterized by the growth of endometrial-like tissues outside the uterus. This disease poses significant diagnostic and therapeutic challenges due to its unknown origins a…

To explore the impact of amygdalin on the proliferation, migration, and invasion of human endometrial stromal cells (HESCs) and the possible underlying mechanism. HESCs were incubated with 50, 100, and 200 µg/mL of amygdalin. The malignant …

OBJECTIVE: To determine the clinical and embryo laboratory factors that affect the clinical pregnancy rate of infertile patients with endometriosis (EMs), and establish a model for predicting clinical pregnancy. STUDY DESIGN: An observatio…

PurposeTo develop a combined diagnostic model integrating the subclassification of the 2022 version of the American College of Radiology (ACR) Ovarian-Adnexal Reporting and Data System (O-RADS) with carbohydrate antigen 125 (CA125) and to v…

BACKGROUND: Patients of ovary endometriosis have an abnormal immune micro-environment, leading to endometrial tissue that from retrograde menstruation evade immune surveillance and subsequently develop into ectopic lesions. OBJECTIVE: This…
