Endometriosis is a complex, chronic inflammatory gynecological disorder with estrogen‑dependent characteristics that severely impairs the quality of life of women and potentially leads to infertility. However, its pathogenesis remains poorl…
RESEARCH QUESTION: Does frozen embryo transfer improve pregnancy outcomes compared with fresh embryo transfer in women with ovarian endometriosis (OEM) undergoing their first IVF/intracytoplasmic sperm injection cycle? DESIGN: A retrospect…
In β‑thalassemia, excessive α‑globin chain impedes the normal development of red blood cells resulting in anemia. Numerous miRNAs, including miR‑6747‑3p, are aberrantly expressed in β‑thalassemia major (β‑TM), but there are no reports on th…
BACKGROUND: Embryonic ploidy is critical for the success of embryo transfer. Currently, preimplantation genetic testing for aneuploidy (PGT-A) is the gold standard for detecting ploidy abnormalities. However, PGT-A has several inherent limi…
Intrauterine adhesion (IUA) is characterized by endometrial fibrosis. S100A8/A9 plays an important role in inflammation and fibroblast activation. However, the role of S100A8/A9 in IUA remains unclear. In this study, we collect normal and I…
Tissue engineering advancements have made it possible to modify biomaterials to reconstruct a similar three-dimensional structure of the extracellular matrix (ECM) for follicle development and to supply the required biological signals. We p…
BACKGROUND: Vitamin D plays an invaluable role in reproductive health, but vitamin D insufficiency and deficiency are generally common among couples of childbearing age and pregnant women. This study aimed to evaluate the evolution, develop…
BACKGROUND: The modified Bushen Antai recipe (BSAT) is a centuries-old traditional Chinese medicine that we use in our center as a therapy against pregnancy loss. Our study aimed to explore the potential benefit and mechanism of BSAT in pre…
