ETHNOPHARMACOLOGICAL RELEVANCE: Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) offers multiple advantages in the treatment of endometriosis (EMS). Bushen Wenyang Huayu Decoction (BWHD) is widely used in clinical practice for managing EMS. It can signif…

PURPOSE: To investigate the impact of regressed endometrial hyperplasia (EH) on assisted reproductive technology outcomes, particularly in comparison with infertile women with a relatively normal endometrium. METHODS: This retrospective st…

BACKGROUND: Endometriosis, a common chronic gynecological disorder, involves cellular autophagy and inflammatory processes in its pathogenesis. However, the specific regulatory mechanisms of autophagy and inflammation in endometriosis remai…

Euodiae Fructus (EF) is the dried and nearly ripe fruit of Euodia rutaecarpa, first recorded in Shen Nong's Herbal Classic. EF is a versatile Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) known for the effects of dispelling colds and alleviating pain,…

Adenomyosis, characterized by clinical intractability, significantly impacts female fertility and life quality due to the absence of definitive diagnostic markers and effective treatment options. The invagination theory is a primary hypothe…

OBJECTIVE: To investigate the relationship between dietary inflammatory index (DII) scores and infertility in US adults aged 18 to 45. METHODS: Data were gathered from the 2013-2018 National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (NHANES)…

PURPOSE: To describe the clinical and imaging characteristics of Herlyn-Werner-Wunderlich syndrome (HWWS). METHODS: This study presented an observational case series involving consecutive patients diagnosed with HWWS, whose medical records…

BACKGROUND: This study aimed to determine the diagnostic accuracy of CA125, HE4, systemic immune-inflammation index (SII), prognostic nutritional index (PNI), fibrinogen-to-albumin ratio (FAR), neutrophil-to-lymphocyte ratio (NLR), platelet…

OBJECTIVE: To investigate the effects of a high-fat diet (HFD) on the gut bacterium Roseburia intestinalis and butyric acid levels, and to assess their impact on ovarian function and epigenetic markers in mice. METHODS: A total of 20 femal…

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…

This study aimed to investigate the predictive value of real-time shear wave elastography (SWE) for spontaneous preterm birth (SPB). This study prospectively selected 175 women with singleton pregnancies at 16 to 36 weeks of gestation. Cerv…

Urinary tract cells respond to bladder distension by releasing adenosine triphosphate (ATP). Patients with interstitial cystitis/bladder pain syndrome (IC/BPS) exhibit elevated urinary ATP levels compared to asymptomatic controls. This stud…

This study aimed to ascertain the diagnostic accuracy of CA125, HE4, systemic immune-inflammation index (SII), fibrinogen-to-albumin ratio (FAR), prognostic nutritional index (PNI), and their combination for ovarian cancer (OC) to discover …

IMPORTANCE: Implantation failure remains a critical barrier to in vitro fertilization. Prednisone, as an immune-regulatory agent, is widely used to improve the probability of implantation and pregnancy, although the evidence for efficacy is…

ObjectiveTo determine whether the peak serum estradiol (E2) level during ovarian stimulation affects the cumulative live birth rate (CLBR) and obstetric outcomes in freeze-all cycles.MethodsThis retrospective cohort study involved patients …

In order to study gynecological endocrine disorders, color ultrasound and image examination were used for in-depth study. After examining the clinical significance, research methods, strengthening treatment measures, and adjusting physical …

PURPOSE: This study aimed to explore whether the coronavirus disease (COVID-19) vaccination of both partners in infertile couples, different types of COVID-19 vaccines, and the interval between complete vaccination and oocyte retrieval or e…

BACKGROUND: Lymphangiogenesis is a process involved in the pathogenesis of many diseases. Identifying key molecules and pathway targeting this process is critical for lymphatic regeneration-associated disorders. EGR1 is a transcription fact…

BACKGROUND: Insulin resistance (IR) contributes to ovarian dysfunctions in polycystic ovarian syndrome (PCOS) patients. Serum amyloid A1 (SAA1) is an acute phase protein produced primarily by the liver in response to inflammation. In additi…

Proteins and peptides (PPs) have gradually become more attractive therapeutic molecules than small molecular drugs due to their high selectivity and efficacy, but fewer side effects. Owing to the poor stability and limited permeability thro…

OBJECTIVE: Androgens acting through the androgen receptor play a crucial role in the pathogenesis of acne. This study aimed to identify whether two key genes (CYP21A2 and CYP19A1) involved in the synthesis and metabolism of androgens were a…

Polarisation imaging has the potential to provide enhanced contrast based on variations in the optical properties, such as scattering or birefringence, of the tissue of interest. Examining the signal at different wavebands in the visible sp…

OBJECTIVE: To investigate the clinical value of combination of human epididymis protein 4 (HE4), CA125 and the Risk of Ovarian Malignancy Algorithm (ROMA) in diagnosis of ovarian carcinoma. METHODS: To detect the serum concentration of HE4…
