BACKGROUND: The differences between adenomyosis subtypes in clinical features and reproductive outcomes remain largely unexplored. This study aimed to compare clinical features and reproductive outcomes after the first frozen embryo transfe…
To evaluate the effectiveness of subendometrial autologous platelet-rich plasma (PRP) injections in improving endometrial thickness (EMT) and pregnancy outcomes in women with refractory thin endometrium. This prospective, single-arm, self-c…
BACKGROUND: To assess sequential embryo transfer's impact on clinical outcomes in frozen embryo transfer (FET) cycles for patients with multiple transfer failures. METHODS: This retrospective cohort study encompasses 4,499 FET cycles invol…
OBJECTIVE: To identify the key factors associated with biochemical pregnancy loss (BPL) following single blastocyst transfer in frozen embryo transfer (FET) cycles utilizing hormone replacement therapy (HRT). METHODS: This retrospective co…
BACKGROUND: The achievement of a healthy live birth from a singleton pregnancy has become the primary objective of modern Assisted Reproductive Technology (ART). Consequently, the effective utilization of a single blastocyst is of paramount…
BACKGROUND: Several studies have demonstrated that pre-treatment with long-acting Gonadotropin-Releasing Hormone agonists (GnRHa) can significantly enhance the clinical pregnancy rate among recurrent implantation failure (RIF) patients. Inv…
BACKGROUND: This study aimed to evaluate the clinical outcomes of umbilical cord mesenchymal stem cell (UC-MSC) transplantation on ovarian function in women with premature ovarian insufficiency (POI), and its potential to improve in vitro f…
BACKGROUND: The objective of this research was to elucidate the association between the length of infertility and the outcomes of intrauterine insemination (IUI) in women of varying ages - a topic that has been the subject of investigation …
BACKGROUND: Previous studies suggested higher serum progesterone (P) levels were strongly associated with a lower clinical pregnancy rate (CPR) for in vitro fertilization-embryo transfer (IVF-ET). However, the effect of increased serum P le…
RESEARCH QUESTION: To investigate the effects of two protocols (hormone replacement therapy (HRT) alone or in combination with tamoxifen) on the endometrium and pregnancy outcome of patients with thin endometrium in frozen-thawed embryo tra…
BACKGROUND: Although repeated cryopreservation is an occasional occurrence, the effect on perinatal outcomes is unclear. Therefore, the aim of this study was to evaluate the perinatal outcomes of singletons after embryo re-cryopreservation.…
RESEARCH QUESTION: Hormone replacement therapy (HRT) is one of the most used endometrial preparation protocols for frozen embryo transfer (FET) due to the convenience of its administration and stability of pregnancy outcomes. There are seve…
RESEARCH QUESTION: The relationship between serum progesterone (P) and luteinizing hormone (LH) levels on the human chorionic gonadotropin (hCG) trigger day and the clinical pregnancy outcomes in modified natural frozen-thawed embryo transf…
BACKGROUND: Gestational trophoblastic disease (GTD) usually affects young women of childbearing age. After treatment for GTD, 86% of women wish to achieve pregnancy. On account of the impacts of GTD and treatments as well as patient anxiety…
Endometrial receptivity damage caused by impaired decidualization may be one of the mechanisms of infertility in endometriosis (EMs). Our previous study demonstrated that Calpain-7 (CAPN7) is abnormally overexpressed in EMs. Whether CAPN7 a…
BACKGROUND: Poor decidualization and abnormal autophagy conditions in the endometria of adenomyosis patients have been reported previously. However, the specific regulatory mechanism of decidualization in adenomyosis and its relationship wi…
BACKGROUND: Timely and moderate luteinizing hormone (LH) supplementation plays positive roles in in vitro fertilization/intracytoplasmic sperm injection and embryo transfer (IVF/ICSI-ET) cycles with long-acting gonadotropin-releasing hormon…
The impact of coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) on endometriosis (EM) is currently unclear. Here, we aimed to describe the potential influence of COVID-19 on the pathogenesis, clinical symptoms, and treatment of EM. The cytokine storm cau…
Purpose: To evaluate the clinical utility of serum luteinizing hormone (LH) level in predicting frozen embryo transfer (FET) outcomes among the patients with an ovulation induction (OI) cycle. Methods: A total of 250 patients who underwent …
BACKGROUND: This study aimed to explore the relationship between serum oestrogen (E2) levels before endometrial transformation and pregnancy outcomes of hormone replacement therapy-frozen embryo transfer (HRT-FET) cycles, which has been inv…
BACKGROUND: Adenomyosis is a chronic gynecological disease characterized by invasion of the uterine endometrium into the muscle layer. In assisted reproductive technology (ART), gonadotropin-releasing hormone agonist (GnRHa) is often used t…
Abstract Background Endometrial receptivity damage caused by impaired decidualization may be one of the mechanisms of infertility in endometriosis (EMs). Our previous study demonstrated that Calpain-7 (CAPN7) is abnormally overexpressed in …
Impaired decidualization has been considered a major cause of infertility in adenomyosis. However, the mechanism remains poorly understood. Recent studies suggest that microRNAs (miRNA) play a crucial role in embryo implantation. The aim of…
Endometriosis (ENDO) is a common gynecological disease that causes infertility in many women. Previous studies noted that the dysregulation of Homeo box A10 (HOXA10) in the endometrium of women with ENDO was involved in the failure of embry…
OBJECTIVE: The aim of this study was to investigate the potential role of IL-10 in regulating the receptivity marker HOXA10 in the endometrium of women with adenomyosis. METHODS: The expression levels of IL-10, HOXA-10, STAT3, and p-STAT3 …
