BACKGROUND: Shear wave elastography (SWE) can evaluate cervical function by measuring the stiffness of the cervix of pregnant women. The aim of this study was to investigate the value of transvaginal ultrasound real-time SWE for assessing c…
PURPOSE: The objective of this study was to investigate the cumulative pregnancy, cumulative live birth, and perinatal and obstetric outcomes of individuals in the POSEIDON group, with the aim of enhancing the management of individuals rece…
This study aims to investigate the differences in response to dienogest (DNG) therapy among patients with 3 different phenotypes of endometriosis: ovarian endometrioma (OMA), superficial peritoneal endometriosis (SUP), and deep infiltrating…
BACKGROUND: Salpingitis is a leading cause of female infertility and ectopic pregnancy worldwide. Despite advances in reproductive medicine, its early diagnosis and effective prevention of long-term sequelae remain challenging due to its of…
OBJECTIVE: To evaluate the efficacy of 5-aminolevulinic acid photodynamic therapy (PDT) for high-grade squamous intraepithelial lesions of the cervix associated with high-risk human papillomavirus (HPV) infection. METHODS: In this study, 1…
BACKGROUND: Heart failure (HF) represents the terminal stage of various cardiovascular disorders, with immunogenic cell death (ICD) potentially influencing HF progression through modulation of immune cell activity. This study aimed to ident…
ObjectiveTo assess the efficacy of preimplantation genetic testing for aneuploidies (PGT-A) compared to intracytoplasmic sperm injection (ICSI) alone in couples undergoing ICSI treatment because of severe male infertility.DesignMulticentre,…
We report a 67-year-old female diagnosed with ovarian mesonephric-like adenocarcinoma (MLA) and treated with a comprehensive regimen. This case emphasizes the urgent need for standardized diagnostic criteria and evidence-based treatment pro…
Endometriosis manifests as ectopic endometrial tissue outside the uterine cavity. This common disease can sometimes appear at unusual anatomical sites or within the intestinal tract, growing as a lesion and mimicking cancer. Such tumor-like…
BACKGROUND: Polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS), an incidence of 10-15% in women of reproductive age, shows sex hormone disorders, luteal insufficiency, and the tendency of placental villus space thrombus. The incidence of early pregnancy loss…
INTRODUCTION: Cardiac arrest during pregnancy is receiving increasing attention. However, there are few reports on cardiac arrest in nonpregnant women caused by abnormal uterine bleeding (AUB). We report a case in which extracorporeal cardi…
BACKGROUND: Cervical intraepithelial neoplasia (CIN) encompasses a range of cervical lesions that are closely linked to cervical invasive carcinoma. Early detection and timely treatment of CIN are crucial for preventing the progression of t…
Endometriosis is a multifactorial gynecological disease, with angiogenesis as a key hallmark. The role of exosomal microRNAs (miRNAs) in endometriosis is not well understood. This study investigates differentially expressed exosomal miRNAs …
Fetal membrane providing mechanical support and immune protection for the growing fetus until it ruptures during parturition. The abnormalities of fetal membrane (thickening, separation, etc.) are related to adverse perinatal outcomes such …
ETHNOPHARMACOLOGICAL RELEVANCE: Endometriosis (EMs) is characterized by inflammatory lesions, dysmenorrhea, infertility, and chronic pelvic pain. Single-target medications often fail to provide systemic therapeutic results owing to the comp…
BACKGROUND: Preeclampsia (PE) is a serious pregnancy-specific syndrome associated with the inadequate invasion of trophoblast cells and inflammation of the uterus. A previous study found that lncRNA HOXD-AS1 promotes PE. However, its regula…
To evaluate the association between exposure to plastic-related endocrine-disrupting chemicals (EDCs), specifically Bisphenol A (BPA), Phthalates, Cadmium, and Lead, and the risk of estrogen-dependent diseases (EDDs) such as polycystic ovar…
OBJECTIVE: To evaluate the association between exposure to plastic-related endocrine-disrupting chemicals (EDCs), specifically Bisphenol A (BPA), Phthalates, Cadmium, and Lead, and the risk of estrogen-dependent diseases (EDDs) such as poly…
Long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs) have attracted significant scientific attention due to their central role in regulating gene expression and their profound impact on the intricate mechanisms of ovarian function. These versatile molecules exer…
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…
PURPOSE: To assess the clinical characteristics and the risk factors related to the unfavorable prognosis of endometrioid ovarian carcinoma (EOVC) based on data from the Surveillance, Epidemiology, and End Results (SEER) database and two cl…
OBJECTIVE: Endometrial cancer is the most common gynecological malignancy in the United States. Despite the high prevalence amongst cisgender females the prevalence of this gynecological malignancy in transgender men has not been clearly id…
Acute pancreatitis (AP) may be associated with both local and systemic complications. Although it is usually self-limiting, up to 20% of patients develop severe acute pancreatitis (SAP), which leads to systemic inflammatory response syndrom…
Endometriosis (EMs) is defined as the presence of tissue somewhat resembling endometrial glands and stroma outside the uterus; the retrograded endometrium grows in the peritoneal cavity and elicits fibrosis. Ferroptosis is a recently discov…
This is a retrospective cohort study included 1021 patients underwent a flexible GnRH antagonist IVF protocol from January 2017 to December 2017 to explore the effect of a premature rise in luteinizing hormone (LH) level on the cumulative l…
