This study evaluates the synergistic therapeutic effect of metformin (MET) combined with medroxyprogesterone acetate (MPA) on endometriosis (EM) and investigates the involvement of the steroid receptor coactivator-1 (SRC-1) and mitogen-indu…
OBJECTIVE: Defective endometrial receptivity is an indispensable cause of infertility in endometriosis, yet the post-transcriptional regulatory mechanisms underlying this impairment remain poorly understood. The goal of this research was to…
PURPOSE: For unexpected low-prognosis patients (Group 1 and Group 2) defined by POSEIDON criteria, how to maximize the live birth rate while controlling the multiple birth rate by tailoring the embryo transfer number and quality? METHODS: …
Inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) is a systemic condition with multifactorial origins. Mitochondria and ferroptosis have been implicated in the disease, but their potential interaction in IBD remains unclear. Therefore, investigating the rel…
Infertility, a widely prevalent condition globally, incurs high economic burdens. Assisted reproductive technologies (ARTs) are effective treatments, but public health financing in low- and middle-income countries (LMICs) rarely covers ART …
BACKGROUND: The 2016 Patient-Oriented Strategy Encompassing IndividualizeD Oocyte Number (POSEIDON) criteria redefined the poor responders as low prognosis patients. The embryo transfer strategy for POSEIDON patients remained to be addresse…
OBJECTIVES: To establish visualised prediction models of low fertilisation rate (LFR) and total fertilisation failure (TFF) for patients in conventional in vitro fertilisation (IVF) cycles. DESIGN: A retrospective cohort study. SETTING: D…
At present, the precise role of human menopausal gonadotropin (HMG) and recombinant luteinizing hormone (rLH) supplementation at an early time of follicular phase on in vitro fertilization (IVF)/intra cytoplasmatic sperm injection (ICSI) ou…
BACKGROUND: To evaluate the efficacy and safety of 10 mg and 25 mg mifepristone per day compared with 3.75 mg enantone in treating uterine fibroids. METHODS: This is a Multicenter randomized controlled trial. A total of 501 subjects with s…
This study investigated the risk factors and early predictors for heterotopic pregnancy (HP) after in vitro fertilization and embryo transfer (IVF-ET). From January 2008 to January 2013, 41 cases of HP and 72 cases of intrauterine twin preg…
BACKGROUND: To evaluate basal testosterone (T) levels during follicular phase of the menstrual cycle as a predictor for ovarian response and in vitro fertilization (IVF) outcome. METHOD: We analyzed data retrospectively from hospital-based…
Sixty patients with endometriosis, stage I-IV, diagnosed by laparoscopy or laparotomy, were treated with 200 micrograms of domestic luteinizing hormone-releasing hormone analogue (LHRH-A) subcutaneously twice daily, starting from the early …
