For women with diminished ovarian reserve or of advanced age, controlled ovarian stimulation presents a significant challenge during in vitro fertilization cycles. This multi-center, open-label, randomized controlled trial enrolled 318 wome…

BACKGROUND: Survival rates for ovarian cancer drop sharply at late-stages due to late diagnosis. Although PARP inhibitors are effective in homologous recombination-deficient (HRD) tumors, their efficacy in homologous recombination (HR)-prof…

This study investigated differences in reproductive outcomes and vaginal microbiota profiles between two endometrial preparation protocols-letrozole (LE) combined with human menopausal gonadotropin (HMG) and hormone replacement therapy (HRT…

BACKGROUND: Infertility has become a global health concern, especially as the aging population continues to grow. Previous studies suggest that gut microbiota plays a crucial role in female reproductive health. This study aimed to investiga…

BACKGROUND: Endometriosis (EMs) is an enigmatic disease of yet-unknown pathogenesis. Disulfidptosis, a novel identified form of programmed cell death resulting from disulfide stress, stands a chance of treating diverse ailments. However, th…

OBJECTIVE: To analyze the risk factors associated with the development of placenta praevia (PP) in first-time pregnant patients and to observe the perinatal clinical outcomes of patients. METHODS: The clinical data of 112 pregnant women wi…

BACKGROUND: Congenital medulloblastoma is very rare, and many cases involve germline mutations that can lead to inherited syndromes. Here, we first report two brothers with congenital medulloblastoma who were diagnosed with Gorlin-Goltz syn…

Ovarian cancer (OC) is a heterogeneous malignancy with various etiology, histopathology, and biological feature. Despite accumulating understanding of OC in the post-genomic era, the preclinical knowledge still undergoes limited translation…

BACKGROUND: It has been consistently shown in several meta-analyses that infants born after ART have an excess of birth defects compared with those after spontaneous conception, however, the prevalence of birth defects among ART offspring i…

Emerging evidence suggests that children conceived through assisted reproductive technology (ART) have a higher risk of congenital heart defects (CHDs) even when there is no family history. De novo mutation (DNM) is a well-known cause of sp…

The aim of this study was to assess menstrual blood loss (MBL) and knowledge of heavy menstrual bleeding (HMB) among the gynecology outpatients at Peking University People's Hospital, by scanning a WeChat (a social media application softwar…

BACKGROUND: There is no evidence of the practices of obstetricians and gynecologists (OB/GYNs) regarding contraceptive use and determinants influencing contraceptive choices, including emergency methods such as combined oral contraceptives …

Expression of estrogen receptors is correlated with breast cancer risk, but inconsistent results have been reported. To clarify potential estrogen receptor (ESR)-related breast cancer risk, we analyzed genetic variants ofESR1 in association…

BACKGROUND: We investigated possible biomarkers for endometriosis (EM) using the ClinProt technique and proteomics methods. METHODS: We enrolled 50 patients with EM, 34 with benign ovarian neoplasms and 40 healthy volunteers in this study.…

OBJECTIVE: To explore the diagnostic rationales for pelvic retroperitoneal tumors and summarize their therapeutic regimens. METHODS: A total of 16 retroperitoneal tumor patients were recruited. And their general information, previous medic…

PURPOSE: Extracellular matrix metalloproteinase inducer (EMMPRIN) was reported to involve in the invasion and metastasis of malignancies by regulating the expression of vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) and matrix metalloproteinases…

Recent genome-wide association studies (GWASs) have identified common genetic variants at 5p15.33, 6p21-6p22 and 15q25.1 associated with lung cancer risk. Several other genetic regions including variants of CHEK2 (22q12), TP53BP1 (15q15) an…

Objective To study the methods for selecting a magnetic bead in Clinprot system. Methods Serum samples from 10 patients with endometriosis,10 healthy volunteers and 10 patients with other overian diseases were analyzed using either immobili…

OBJECTIVE: To evaluate the value of human epididymis secretory protein 4 (HE4) and CA(125) in the diagnosis of ovarian malignancy. METHODS: HE4 and CA(125) in the serum specimens of malignant ovarian tumor group (30 cases), benign ovarian …
