Uterine rupture is an infrequent yet sometimes fatal complication of a subsequent vaginal birth attempt following a previous uterine surgery. We have chosen to write about spontaneous uterine ruptures following …
Oxidative stress plays a central role in reproductive disorders, with food bioactive compounds offering therapeutic potential through their antioxidant properties. This review examines antioxidant active ingredients from plant-based foods and …
This study investigates the proteomic profile of the fallopian tube following exposure to human sperm, with a focus on its role in sperm capacitation, final sperm maturation, successful fertilization, and …
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 …
Do iron metabolism and ferroptosis influence oocyte and embryo quality in patients with endometriosis undergoing IVF/intracytoplasmic sperm injection (ICSI), or in a mouse model?
This systematic review and meta-analysis (CRD42024588171) compared the effectiveness of surgery followed by IVF/intracytoplasmic sperm injection (IVF/ICSI) with direct IVF/ICSI (i.e. without previous surgery) on the reproductive outcomes of infertile …
