Objective: To compare and analyze the clinical efficacy and reproductive outcomes of the hysteroscopic tissue removal system (MyoSure) and hysteroscopic electroresection in the treatment of benign intrauterine lesions in women of reproductive age.
Methods: This is a retrospective study of patients with benign intrauterine lesions treated with MyoSure or hysteroscopic electroresection. The primary outcomes were operative time and resection completeness, and reproductive outcomes were followed up and compared. Secondary outcomes included perioperative adverse events and postoperative adhesions seen during second-look hysteroscopy. Data analysis was performed using χ and Fisher tests for qualitative variables and Student t-test for quantitative variables.
Results: The operative times of patients with type 0 or I myoma, endometrial polyps, or retained products of conception in the MyoSure group were shorter than those in the electroresection group but were not significantly different for patients with type II myomas. The complete resection rate was lower in the MyoSure group than in the electroresection group. The degree of decrease in the American Fertility Society score of intrauterine adhesion in the MyoSure group was significantly higher (2.90 ± 1.29 points vs 1.31 ± 0.89 points, P = 0.025). The time to pregnancy and the pregnancy rate were higher in the MyoSure group (13.14 ± 7.85 months vs 16.26 ± 8.22 months, P = 0.040; 65.12% vs 54.55%, P = 0.045), but there was no significant difference in the term live birth rate, premature birth rate, or abortion rate between the two groups.
Conclusion: MyoSure has advantages of a shortened operative time and improvement in reproductive outcomes such as pregnancy rate. However, for type II myomas, MyoSure has limitations, and a comprehensive evaluation before the procedure is required.

Purpose: Prior sperm DNA fragmentation index (DFI) thresholds for diagnosing male infertility and predicting assisted reproduction technology (ART) outcomes fluctuated between 15 and 30%, with no agreed standard. This study aimed to evaluate the impact of the sperm DFI on early embryonic development during ART treatments and establish appropriate DFI cut-off values.
Methods: Retrospectively analyzed 913 couple's ART cycles from 2021 to 2022, encompassing 1,476 IVF and 295 ICSI cycles, following strict criteria.

Background: Ovarian cancer (OC), particularly high-grade serous ovarian carcinoma (HGSOC), is the leading cause of mortality from gynecological malignancies worldwide. Despite the initial effectiveness of treatment, acquired resistance to poly(ADP-ribose) polymerase inhibitors (PARPis) represents a major challenge for the clinical management of HGSOC, highlighting the necessity for the development of novel therapeutic strategies. This study investigated the role of 6-phosphofructo-2-kinase/fructose-2,6-bisphosphatase 3 (PFKFB3), a pivotal regulator of glycolysis, in PARPi resistance and explored its potential as a therapeutic target to overcome PARPi resistance.

As the earliest measure of social communication in rodents, ultrasonic vocalizations (USVs) in response to maternal separation are critical in preclinical research on neurodevelopmental disorders (NDDs). While sex differences in both USV production and behavioral outcomes are reported, many studies overlook sex as a biological variable in preclinical NDD models. We aimed to evaluate sex differences in USV call parameters and determine if USVs are differently impacted based on sex in the preclinical maternal immune activation (MIA) model.

Background: Unwarranted clinical variation presents a major challenge in contemporary healthcare, indicating potential inequalities and inefficiencies, and unrealised potential for better outcomes. Despite an increasing focus on unwarranted clinical variation, and consideration of efforts to address this challenge, evidence-based strategies which achieve this are limited. Audit and feedback of healthcare processes (process auditing) and clinician engagement are important tools which may help to reduce unwarranted clinical variation, however their application in maternity care is yet to be thoroughly explored.

Background: Gestational diabetes mellitus is hyperglycemia in special populations (pregnant women), however gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM) not only affects maternal health, but also has profound effects on offspring health. The prevalence of gestational diabetes in my country is gradually increasing.
Objective: To study the application effect of self-transcendence nursing model in GDM patients.
