Conventional in vitro fertilization (IVF) outcome prediction is limited by static, single-endpoint analyses. We aimed to overcome this by using a multistate model to dissect the stage-specific and, crucially, the non-linear influence of end…
PURPOSE: This study aimed to summarize the clinical characteristics, surgical management, and follow-up outcomes of patients with severe renal impairment caused by ureteral endometriosis. METHODS: We conducted a retrospective analysis of t…
Endometriosis is a common gynecological disease in which lipid metabolic dysregulation has been increasingly implicated. However, the specific metabolic changes in ectopic lesions and stromal cells remain poorly understood. It is also uncle…
Background Apoptosis resistance promotes the persistence of ectopic endometrial cells, but its extracellular regulators remain incompletely understood. This study aimed to determine whether EDIL3 promotes stromal-cell survival in endometrio…
Endometriosis is a chronic gynecological disorder, and its symptom fluctuations and healthcare utilization may be influenced by environmental exposures. Although meteorological factors and air pollution have been associated with short-term …
OBJECTIVES: This study aimed to comprehensively examine coagulation parameters in patients with endometriosis versus those without to determine hematologic alterations associated with endometriosis. METHODS: Embase, PubMed, CINAHL, Web of S…
INTRODUCTION: Primary omental pregnancy (OP) is very rare, and achieving an accurate diagnosis has always been a challenge for obstetricians, gynecologists, and sonographers. Our attempt to utilize intraoperative ultrasonography has facilit…
PROBLEM: The relationship between abortion and endometriosis (EMS) has been inconsistent in previous observational studies and remains controversial. We intended to examine the causal relationship between abortion and EMS. METHODS OF STUDY…
RATIONALE: The coexistence of intrauterine and extrauterine pregnancies is termed heterotopic pregnancy (HP). Most reported cases of HP occur after assisted reproductive technology, and HP in a natural pregnancy (NP) is very rare, often dis…
PURPOSE: Endometriosis (EM) and recurrent spontaneous abortion (RSA) exhibit clinical associations, yet their shared molecular mechanisms remain unclear. This study aimed to identify shared molecular mechanisms and potential hub genes under…
Endometriosis has been increasingly associated with the aberrant regulation of non-coding RNAs (ncRNAs), particularly long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs) and microRNAs (miRNAs). Despite the growing recognition of their biological significance, t…
BACKGROUND: Fear of childbirth is a common concern among pregnant women, potentially affecting maternal physical and mental health as well as birth outcomes. However, the factors influencing fear of childbirth are still being explored. This…
This study aimed to investigate the changes of serum carbohydrate antigen 125 (CA125) and prostaglandin E2 (PGE2) in patients with adenomyosis before and after treatment with high-intensity focused ultrasound (HIFU) combined with gonadotrop…
OBJECTIVE: This prospective observational study aims to demonstrate the clinical efficacy of dienogest in treating endometriomas with a maximum diameter of ≥4 cm. METHODS: Patients (n = 81) with endometriomas (diameter of ≥4 cm) were enrol…
BACKGROUND AND AIMS: This network meta-analysis aimed to compare the perioperative efficacy of various minimally invasive hysterectomy procedures for treating benign gynecological diseases and to assess whether vaginal natural orifice trans…
BACKGROUND: Currently, the use of dienogest in clinical practice has increased significantly, and many studies have focused on its effectiveness and safety in the treatment of endometriosis and adenomyosis; however, the effects of treatment…
BACKGROUND: Repeated cryopreservation of embryos should occasionally be considered when embryos were not suitable for transfer. The effect of re-cryopreservation on embryos remains contentious. METHODS: This retrospective cohort study aime…
Endometriosis refers to as an estrogen-dependent disease. Estrogen receptor β (ERβ), the main estrogen receptor subtype which is encoded by the estrogen receptor 2 (ESR2) gene, can mediate the action of estrogen in endometriosis. Although s…
Background: Endometriosis (EM), a gynecological disorder that is dependent on estrogen and causes inflammation, is prevalent among women of reproductive age and is considered a chronic condition. The involvement of noncoding RNAs in exosome…
MiR-181a suppresses the proliferation of mouse granulosa cells, which participate in polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS), suggesting the potential role of miR-181a in PCOS. Our bioinformatics analysis revealed that miR-181a could bind CDKN2B-A…
BACKGROUND: To evaluate the efficacy of the enhanced recovery after surgery (ERAS) programs on the systemic inflammatory response (SIR) of patients following gynecological surgery, a randomized controlled trial was performed to compare the …
PURPOSE: Laparotomic or hysteroscopic myomectomy, and high-intensity focussed ultrasound (HIFU), can be used in the treatment of Type 2 myomas with a > 50% intramural component. Hysteroscopic electroresection may damage the remaining endome…
BACKGROUND: Long non-coding RNAs (LncRNAs) have been extensively studied to play essential roles in tumor progression. However, more in-depth studies are waiting to be solved on how lncRNAs regulate the progression of hepatocellular carcino…
BACKGROUND: Follicular microenvironment has been proposed as an important factor for oocyte grown and maturation. We sought to evaluate the oxidative stress and inflammatory levels in follicular fluid (FF) and association with embryo qualit…
BACKGROUND: Polypoid endometriosis (PEM) is a rare and unique type of endometriosis. To date, no article has provided a systematic report of this disease. The current article provides a complete report on rare PEM based on ultrasound, magne…
