BACKGROUND: Endometriosis is a chronic gynecological disorder characterized by pain and impaired quality of life (QoL). While pharmacological and surgical options exist, their limitations necessitate complementary strategies. The comparativ…
BACKGROUND: Endometriosis (EMS) is an estrogen-dependent chronic inflammatory disorder for which metabolic reprogramming has emerged as a central pathological feature. Driven by genetic, epigenetic, and microenvironmental stressors, ectopic…
INTRODUCTION: Studies indicate that endometriosis (EMs) is associated with inflammation and metabolic abnormalities. The Remnant Cholesterol Inflammatory Index (RCII) concurrently reflects both inflammatory and metabolic status. However, th…
BACKGROUND: Infertility has become a world-wide public health problem. To identify women in a high-risk of infertility at an early stage when more treatments are available, early risk factors such as age at menarche (AAM) are being investig…
Chronic endometritis (CE) is a persistent inflammatory disorder of the endometrium, associated with infertility, recurrent pregnancy loss, and implantation failure. Diagnosis primarily depends on hysteroscopy and immunohistochemistry, while…
Chronic endometritis (CE) is a subtle but persistent inflammatory disorder of the endometrium that is often underdiagnosed due to its asymptomatic or non-specific presentation. The etiology of CE primarily involves microbial infections and …
Gut microbiota and its metabolites are related to the female reproductive system. Animal experiments have demonstrated the relationship between gut microbiota-derived short chain fatty acids (SCFAs) and embryo quality. However, few studies …
OBJECTIVE: This study assessed the impact of the cervical microbiome on reproductive outcomes in frozen embryo transfer (FET) patients. STUDY DESIGN: This cross-sectional study included 120 women (aged 20-40 years) undergoing FET. A cervic…
Infertility is defined as failure to achieve pregnancy within 12 months of unprotected intercourse in women. Trace elements, a kind of micronutrient that is very important to female reproductive function, are affected by intestinal absorpti…
Building a novel and efficient photothermal antibacterial nanoplatform is a promising strategy for precise bacterial elimination. Herein, a nanocomposite NiO NPs@AuNPs@Van (NAV) for selective MRSA removal was constructed by electrostatic se…
Objective: To evaluate the efficacy of subcutaneous etonogestrel implants for adenomyosis.Methods: We conducted a clinical observational study of 20 patients suffering from adenomyosis treated with subcutaneous etonogestrel implants from Au…
OBJECTIVE: The aim of this study is to characterize the demographics, fibromyalgia-related symptom severity and quality of life (QOL) among Chinese fibromyalgia patients. METHODS: A total of 124 patients who met the ACR 1990 criteria were …
BACKGROUND: There is limited literature investigating the effects of body mass index (BMI) and androgen level on in vitro fertilization (IVF) outcomes with a gonadotropin-releasing hormone (GnRH)-antagonist protocol in polycystic ovary synd…
