This study aimed to elucidate the role of microRNA-92a-3p (miR-92a-3p) in the pathogenesis of adenomyosis. We examined how miR-92a-3p, found in exosomes derived from ectopic lesions, influences the behaviour of endometrial cells, dorsal roo…

In the field of treatment and prevention of immune-related bone diseases, significant challenges persist, necessitating the urgent exploration of new and effective treatment methods. However, most existing Mendelian randomization (MR) studi…

The prevalence of multiple long-term conditions (MLTC) is increasing. It is essential to develop strategies to prevent and manage MLTC; however, the biological mechanisms underlying MLTC are not yet clearly understood. We used UK Biobank da…

Laparoscopy is the gold standard for diagnosing endometriosis; however, it is an invasive and costly method. Recent studies offer a non-invasive approach based on extracellular vesicle miRNA. Despite this, no consensus diagnostic biomarker …

Abnormal uterine bleeding (AUB) represents one of the most prevalent indications for outpatient consultations among women of reproductive age. The present investigation sought to assess the health-related quality of life and its determinant…

This study investigates the proteomic profile of the fallopian tube following exposure to human sperm, with a focus on its role in sperm capacitation, final sperm maturation, successful fertilization, and early embryonic development. Twenty…

Sr2NiCoAl0.3Fe27.7O46 X-Type hexa-nano-ferrites were prepared using a co-precipitation route, coated with Chitosan, and synthesized into a ferrite chitosan curcumin nanoparticle system. This combination enhances curcumin's therapeutic prope…

Identifying the ureters in patients with advanced endometriosis and severe pelvic adhesive disease can be challenging. Adhesiolysis along the deformed pelvic sidewall may increase the risk of prolonged operative time and incidental ureteral…

The accumulation of regulatory T cells (Tregs) in the tumor microenvironment is a key factor for immunosuppression and immune escape of cancer cells. Genistein is a natural isoflavonoid in soybeans, possessing a wide range of pharmacologica…

Adolescent Idiopathic Scoliosis (AIS) is the most common orthopedic condition requiring surgery, affecting 4% of adolescents. There is currently no proven method or prognostic test to identify symptomatic patients at risk of developing seve…

Infectious diseases, such as sexually transmitted infections (STIs) and maternal sepsis, are major contributors to female infertility, creating a substantial burden on women of reproductive age. Based on Global Burden of Disease (GBD) 2021,…

To analyze the global burden of pancreatitis in women of childbearing age (WCBA) at the global, regional and national levels from 1990 to 2021. Data for pancreatitis incidence and deaths in females aged 15 to 49 years were downloaded from t…

Female infertility represents a significant reproductive health issue that critically affects global fertility rates. In this study, we utilized the most recent data from the Global Burden of Disease (GBD) study 2021. Initially, we assessed…

Endometriosis is a common gynecological condition associated with chronic inflammation, epigenetic dysregulation, and infertility. The TET1 gene, involved in DNA demethylation, may be regulated by repressive histone modifications such as H3…

The risk of pregnancy loss prior to 24 weeks gestation has been found to be 15.3% of all pregnancies, around 23 million losses each year. Recurrent pregnancy loss (RPL) - two or more pregnancy losses - are now presumed to affect 5% of coupl…

Intraperitoneal administration of high doses of basic amino acids, such as L-lysine (L-Lys), L-arginine (L-Arg) or L-ornithine (L-Orn) induces acute pancreatitis in rodents. Although the exact mechanism of their action is not fully understo…

Levonorgestrel intrauterine-releasing system (LNG-IUS), an intrauterine device, is recommended for patients with adenomyosis; however, it often shows poor outcomes in these patients because of their large uterine size. This prospective stud…

This study aimed to explore potential risk factors for severe endometriosis and to develop a model to predict the risk of severe endometriosis. A total of 308 patients with endometriosis were analyzed. Least absolute shrinkage and selection…

This study analyzed transcriptome sequencing data from rat samples, categorized into control (normal), model (chronic endometritis, CE), and test (treated with Penning Formula, PNF) groups, to identify key target genes of PNF in CE treatmen…

CXC chemokine ligand 8 (CXCL8) has emerged as a critical mediator in tumorigenesis. This study aims to elucidate the role of CXCL8 in the initiation and progression of papillary thyroid carcinoma (PTC). Comprehensive bioinformatic analyses …

An increasing number of research have suggested that ferroptosis plays an important role in endometriosis (EMS). This study was to identify a ferroptosis-related diagnosis gene in EMS by using bioinformatics. R Bioconductor package limma wa…

Endometriosis (EM) is a chronic disease that can cause pain and infertility in patients. As is well known, immune cell infiltrations (ICIs) play important roles in the pathogenesis of EM. However, the pathogenesis and biomarkers of EM that …

Pelvic organ prolapse (POP) significantly impacts patients' quality of life, and current treatment options remain limited due to high recurrence rates, making the exploration of new therapeutic targets essential. Using data from the FinnGen…

Endometriosis is a common disease among women of childbearing age, and endoplasmic reticulum stress (ERS), a response involved in regulating protein homeostasis, has been linked to its pathogenesis. To identify ERS-related hub genes, this s…

Pelvic organ prolapse (POP) and its subtypes are serious concerns affecting a woman's quality of life and pose a challenge for her social reintegration. Prolonged labor leading to trauma of the pelvic floor muscles during delivery, surgical…
