The female reproductive system (FRS) exhibits unique immunological characteristics, balancing defense against pathogens with tolerance to sperm and semi-allogeneic embryos. Key players include decidual natural killer (dNK) cells, immune checkpoint …
Does surgical management of ovarian endometriomas improve in vitro fertilization (IVF)/intracytoplasmic sperm injection (ICSI)?
This study aims to develop a machine learning-based predictive model for patients with endometriosis, with the goal of precisely identifying key factors and reliable predictive markers that influence live birth …
To evaluate the impact of poor ovarian response (POR) on live birth outcomes in endometriosis patients undergoing IVF/ICSI-ET, despite the expected association between reduced oocyte yield and poorer prognosis.
The role of microRNAs (miRNAs) in human reproduction represents an area of research, as these regulatory molecules appear to play essential roles in reproductive function. However, the current understanding of …
While obesity has been associated with poor reproductive outcomes, the specific factors affecting gametes remain unclear. Our primary objective was to assess the relationship between a couple's pre-pregnancy body mass …
MiRNAs regulate gene expression, impacting reproductive health, such as infertility and implantation failure. This study investigated the association between miRNA polymorphisms and male infertility (azoospermia, oligospermia), female infertility (endometriosis), and …
Endometriosis, the most prevalent cause of infertility, is associated with anatomical distortion leading to adhesions and fibrosis, as well as endocrine abnormalities and immune disorders. This review discusses the mechanisms …
Background: Uterine contractility, also known as uterine peristalsis (UP), is a critical determinant of fertility, affecting sperm transport and embryo implantation. Increased uterine peristaltic activity has been associated with reduced …
The success of in vitro fertilization (IVF)/intracytoplasmic sperm injection (ICSI) in endometriosis patients varies widely, and predicting the likelihood of achieving a live birth remains a clinical challenge. This study …
