OBJECTIVE: To investigate the association between the ovarian sensitivity index (OSI) and ovarian responsiveness, embryo quality, and pregnancy outcomes in women of advanced reproductive age (≥35 years) undergoing IVF-ET. METHODS: This ret…
BACKGROUND: Low-level sex chromosome mosaicism (SCM; abnormal cell proportion <10%) is frequently detected during preconception karyotype screening, yet its clinical relevance in assisted reproductive technology (ART) remains controversial.…
Background/Objectives: Guizhi Fuling Capsule (GZFL), a Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) formula, is widely used for primary dysmenorrhea and other blood-stasis gynecological disorders. This study aimed to characterize its material basis, …
OBJECTIVE: This study aimed to investigate the mechanisms underlying Nuclear Receptor Subfamily 5 Group A Member 1 (NR5A1, encoding SF-1) hypomethylation in endometriosis (EMs) and to evaluate the effects of Luoshi Neiyi Prescription (LSNYP…
Panax ginseng C.A. Meyer, a renowned medicinal herb, exerts many of its systemic effects through intricate interactions with the gut microbiota, a relationship that also addresses the challenge of its own limited oral bioavailability. This …
Biofilm accumulation and subsequent implant-related infections pose significant challenges in the biomedical field. Photocatalytic coatings hold promise for antimicrobial efficacy; however, their effectiveness in dynamic polymicrobial infec…
BACKGROUND: Cervical intraepithelial neoplasia grade 2 (CIN2) is one of the precursor stages before cervical lesions develop into cervical cancer. The spontaneous development of CIN2 is ambiguous. One part of CIN2 lesions will progress to c…
