BACKGROUND: Abnormal angiogenesis plays vital role in the pathogenesis of adenomyosis (AM). Emerging evidence suggests that exosomes derived from endometrial cells can accelerate the progression of AM. In this study, we aim to investigate t…
RESEARCH QUESTION: Is there a difference in the euploidy status and pregnancy outcomes among patients undergoing preimplantation genetic testing for aneuploidy (PGT-A) inoculated with inactivated severe acute respiratory syndrome coronaviru…
BACKGROUND: Adenomyosis (AM) is frequently associated with compromised embryo implantation. The leukemia inhibitory factor (LIF)/signal transducer and activator of transcription 3 (STAT3) signaling pathway is crucial for endometrial recepti…
Endometriosis (EMS) remains understudied in effective management strategies. The interplay between macrophage dysfunction and microbiota-derived immune signals emerges as a potential mechanism in EMS pathogenesis, suggesting its relevance f…
To identify the factors affecting adverse reproductive outcomes in TPOAb-positive patients and to establish a predictive model based on these factors to assess the risk of adverse reproductive outcomes in patients. A retrospective cohort st…
In clinical drug development, two fundamental questions must be addressed: what is the success rate of drugs in clinical trial; how does such rate change over time. Here, a dynamic strategy for calculating clinical trial success rate (ClinS…
Gastric cancer (GC) is the fifth most common malignant tumor worldwide. Surgical resection remains the primary treatment for GC, with laparoscopic surgery recommended by several international guidelines. Due to complex perigastric vessels, …
Adenomyosis (AM), a gynecological disorder that severely affects female reproductive health. AM-associated macrophage (AAM) polarization-induced epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT) is a key driver of AM progression. In this study, we in…
OBJECTIVE: To evaluate the effects of GnRH-a pretreatment with 1.5 mg or 3.75 mg, in combination with hormone replacement therapy (HRT), on pregnancy outcomes in women with polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) undergoing frozen embryo transfer …
Histone lactylation, as a common post-translational modification (PTM), is crucial in diseases. Aberrant histone lactylation has been linked to disease pathogenesis, thus positioning it as a therapeutic target. This review summarizes the bi…
Adenomyosis (AM) is a common non-cancerous condition of the uterus that has significant effects on women's health. Despite its clinical importance, the advancement of dependable non-invasive diagnostic biomarkers has yet to be achieved. Thi…
OBJECTIVE: This study aimed to assess the impact of inoculation with the inactivated coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) vaccine on the outcomes of in vitro fertilization and embryo transfer (IVF-ET). METHODS: From January 2021 to December…
OBJECTIVES: Thyroid dysfunction is commonly associated with the risk of infertility in both females and males. However, recent randomized controlled trials have demonstrated that thyroid function levels in females are not significantly rela…
PURPOSE: To summarize the findings of relevant randomized controlled trials (RCTs) and conduct a meta-analysis to investigate the potential effect of aromatase inhibitors on preventing moderate to severe ovarian hyperstimulation syndrome (O…
BACKGROUND: Infertility is a reproductive health problem that attracts worldwide attention. Polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) is a major cause of female infertility and patients with obesity and PCOS are particularly common in clinical pract…
INTRODUCTION: Embryo implantation requires synchronous communication between the embryo and maternal endometrium. Inadequate maternal endometrial receptivity is one of the principal causes for embryo implantation failure [especially repeate…
PURPOSE: This study aimed to establish a protocol for efficiently isolating and expanding adenomyotic lesion-derived endometrial mesenchymal stem cells (A-eMSCs) in vitro. METHODS: Three different methods-namely, the enzymatic method, the …
PURPOSE: Accurate segmentation of the endometrium in ultrasound images is essential for gynecological diagnostics and treatment planning. Manual segmentation methods are time-consuming and subjective, prompting the exploration of automated …
BACKGROUND: Growth hormone (GH) could improve the outcomes of in vitro fertilization and embryo transfer (IVF-ET) in patients with decreased ovarian reserve (DOR), but which age group will benefit the most has remained controversial. This s…
This study used a Mendelian randomization (MR) approach to investigate the causal relationship between genetically predicted endometriosis (EMS) and breast cancer risk. A total of 122,977 cases and 105,974 controls were included in the anal…
Abstract This study used a Mendelian randomization (MR) approach to investigate the causal relationship between genetically predicted endometriosis (EMS) and breast cancer risk. A total of 122,977 cases and 105,974 controls were included in…
BACKGROUND: Few studies have described the relationship between the type of infertility and live birth in patients treated with intrauterine insemination (IUI). We focused on this issue and attempted to explore it. METHODS: This retrospect…
Epithelial ovarian cancer (EOC) is the most lethal gynecological cancer, and more than 70% of patients are diagnosed at advanced stages. Despite the application of surgery and chemotherapy, the prognosis remains poor due to the high relapse…
