BACKGROUND: Displacement of the window of implantation (WOI) has been proposed as an important factor contributing to repeated implantation failure (RIF). However, the use of histologic endometrial dating as a diagnostic tool of endometrial…
(Abstracted from Fertil Steril 2019;112:1103–1111) Chronic endometriosis (CE) is a chronic infectious disease that is often misdiagnosed due to its vague symptomatic severity, lack of typical clinical or ultrasounds symptoms, and requiremen…
Objective To explore the application value of 3.0 T MultiVane XD (MVXD) technique in female patients with uterine adenomyosis and fibroids. Methods Patients diagnosed with uterine fibroids with ultrasound and suspected of adenomyosis…
RESEARCH QUESTION: Using RNA-sequencing analysis, we investigated the relationship between ovarian stimulation and endometrial transcriptome profiles during the window of implantation (WOI) to identify candidate predictive factors for the W…
Objective: The POSEIDON criteria are used to stratify patients with low prognosis after assisted reproductive technology (ART) treatment. Since its introduction, there has been no large study about the prognosis of the POSEIDON population. …
Objective: To investigate whether circulating LH levels could be used as an indicator for the timing of antagonist addition in GnRH antagonist protocol. Design: Retrospective cohort study. Setting: University-based hospital. Patients: A tot…
AIM: This study assesses a clinical potential of immediate early responsive gene X-1 (IEX-1), also named IER3, in the diagnosis of epithelial ovarian carcinoma using blood and salivary specimens. METHODS: Immediate early responsive gene X-…
PURPOSE: The purpose of this study is to explore whether a low concentration of granulocyte-macrophage colony-stimulating factor (GM-CSF) supplementation in culture medium is beneficial to infertile women aged over 35 years. METHODS: A ret…
PURPOSE: To probe the magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) features of ovarian clear cell carcinoma (OCCC). METHODS: This study retrospectively collected MRI data for 21 pathology-confirmed OCCCs from 19 female patients. The MRI findings were …
OBJECTIVE: To investigate the expression of human β-defensin-2 (hBD-2) in the endometrium of patients with endometriosis (EMS) and explore the potential role of hBD-2 in the pathogenesis of EMS. DESIGN: Prospective controlled study. SAMPL…
Objective To investigate the expression of human β defensin-2(hβD-2)in the eutopic and ectopic endometrial tissue in patients with adenomyosis and in women with normal endometrium.Methods Twenty-five hysteromyoma patients with adenomyosis(A…
OBJECTIVE: To explore the expression of endothelial and inducible nitric oxide synthase (eNOS and iNOS) in the eutopic endometria of patients with endometriosis and infertility, and to detect the effect of gonadotropin releasing hormone ago…
