BACKGROUND: The adverse impacts of homeostasis disturbance of plasma trace elements on female reproduction, including premature ovarian insufficiency (POI), have received increasing attention recently, yet limited evidence has been reported…
This study aims to characterize the expression pattern and biological functions of miR-433-3p in endometriosis. Eutopic and ectopic endometrial tissues were collected from endometriosis patients, and the expression level of miR-433-3p was d…
INTRODUCTION: Low-grade endometrial stromal sarcoma (LGESS) is a rare malignant tumor of the uterus, characterized by slow growth. Early-stage LGESS is associated with favorable survival, but it has a high recurrence rate. The primary treat…
OBJECTIVE: Vaginal natural orifice transluminal endoscopic surgery (vNOTES) is widely recognized for its advantages, including reduced postoperative pain and the absence of visible scarring. However, the anatomical specificity required for …
BACKGROUND: Advances in minimally invasive surgery and the development of Enhanced Recovery After Surgery (ERAS) have favored the spread of day-surgery programs. Even though Vaginal natural orifice transvaginal endoscopic surgery (vNOTES) i…
INTRODUCTION: Although previous studies have shown that vaginal natural orifice transluminal endoscopic surgery (vNOTES) has the advantages of causing less pain, faster recovery, and better concealment of surgical incisions, which aligns wi…
An increasing number of studies demonstrate that changes in neurotransmitters metabolic levels in follicular fluid are directly related to oocyte maturation, fertilization, the quality of embryo and pregnancy rates. However, the relationshi…
Endometrial damage is an important cause of female reproductive problems, manifested as menstrual abnormalities, infertility, recurrent pregnancy loss, and other complications. These conditions are collectively termed "Asherman syndrome" (A…
The AT-rich Interactive Domain 1A (ARID1A) is one of the most frequently mutated genes in gastric cancer. Here, we found that genetic variants in noncoding regions of ARID1A associated with altered protein levels by target sequencing. Notab…
Spontaneous preterm birth (sPTB), defined as delivery before 37 weeks of gestation, is thought to be a multifactorial syndrome. However, the inflammatory imbalance at the maternal-fetal interface promotes excessive secretion of inflammatory…
We investigated contrast-enhanced ultrasonography (CEUS) characteristics related to the perfusion pattern and parameters of the time-intensity curve of ovarian endometrial cysts (OECs) pre- and post-sclerotherapy. Forty-three patients with …
BACKGROUND: Improvements in vitrification and frozen embryo transfer (FET) technologies have rapidly increased, and some evidence suggests that FET may increase pregnancy rates and lead to more favourable perinatal outcomes. However, the ou…
OBJECTIVES: The purpose of this study was to assess contrast-enhanced sonography features before and after interventional treatment of ovarian endometrial cysts. METHODS: We retrospectively analyzed 53 patients with ovarian endometrial cys…
OBJECTIVES: To detect the differentially expressed genes and subsequently identify disease-related signatures and potential biomarkers for patients with ovarian endometriomas in the serum before and after the ultrasound-guided ethanol scler…
AIM: This study was to investigate the correlation between ovarian chocolate cysts and serum carbohydrate antigen (CA)-125 levels and to demonstrate the effect of ultrasound-guided interventional sclerotherapy (UGIS) on serum CA-125 levels.…
