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 …
Autophagy is a highly conserved eukaryotic process that degrades cytoplasmic material within lysosomes, and plays a crucial role in cellular development, function and homeostasis. Recent studies have increasingly revealed the …
The adenosine monophosphate (AMP)-activated protein kinase (AMPK) signalling pathway regulates cell metabolism, inflammation and the immune response. This signalling pathway is essential for maintaining reproductive homeostasis and influencing steroidogenesis, implantation, …
Are there differences between patients with and without endometriosis in progesterone concentrations the day before artificial-cycle frozen embryo transfer (AC-FET) and in live birth rate (LBR) following subcutaneous progesterone when …
Is co-existing polycystic ovarian morphology (PCOM) associated with a higher cumulative live birth rate (LBR) after assisted reproductive technology (ART) in women with advanced endometriosis?
Hormone pre-treatment is still used before assisted reproductive technique (ART) in endometriotic women, but evidence supporting this recommendation is conflicting.
Endometriosis is a chronic condition that affects around 10% of New Zealand women and people presumed female at birth, however, limitations in diagnosis and management mean patients wait a decade …
The interplay between the gut microbiome and reproductive health has gained increasing attention in recent years. Emerging research suggests that imbalances in the gut microbiome may impact reproductive function through …
Endometriosis presents a common and significant health burden affecting approximately 1 in 10 reproductive age patients who are assigned female at birth. Recently guidelines have begun shifting away from laparoscopy …
How does adenomyosis affect live birth rates (LBRs) in women undergoing ART compared to a matched control population?
