Background: To date, there is no consensus on whether intrauterine insemination (IUI) treatment is required in young patients with diminished ovarian reserve (DOR). Pregnancy outcomes in young DOR patients undergoing IUI are controversial. The existing studies are all single-center studies, with no existing multicenter cohort studies. The purpose of this multicenter study was to investigate the pregnancy outcomes of young DOR patients undergoing IUI.
Methods: This multicenter cohort study included a total of 4600 cycles in 2204 infertile patients who underwent IUI treatment in three reproductive medical centers between September 2018 and January 2022. The research subjects were divided into two groups according to their serum anti-Müllerian hormone (AMH) levels. Propensity score matching (PSM) was used to match the research subjects at a ratio of 1:4. The pregnancy outcomes in the two groups were compared.
Results: There was no significant difference in the clinical pregnancy rates (CPR), biochemical rates, and ectopic pregnancy rates between the two groups (P > 0.05). There were, however, significant differences in the miscarriage rates between the groups (P < 0.05). The live birth rates (LBR) were 6.6 vs. 9.9 between the two groups. The multivariable logistic regression models reveal that body mass index, AMH were significantly correlated with CPR; AMH were significantly correlated with LBR; BMI, follicle stimulating hormone were significantly correlated with miscarriage rate.
Conclusions: The clinical pregnancy rate of DOR patients was not significantly different from that of NOR patients; however, the miscarriage rates were significantly different from those of NOR patients.

Colostrum, the initial mammary secretion produced by various mammals following birth, is a conduit for maternal immunity transfer in diverse mammalian species. Concurrently, many cellular processes are occurring in the neonatal small intestine to prepare it to receive molecular signals from a superfood essential for the neonate's health and development. During the prepartum colostrum secretion, the newborn intestine undergoes transient alterations in the intestinal barrier, primarily regulating immunoglobulin absorption.

Background: A giant encephalocele associated with Chiari malformation is a rare congenital anomaly from a cephalad neural tube defect. Early prenatal diagnosis and parental counseling are essential; as early surgical intervention can improve outcomes.
Methods: Between 2010 and 2023, twenty-seven newborns out of 43,815 delivered at our institution were diagnosed with encephaloceles, including seven cases of giant encephalocele associated with Chiari malformation type III.

Autoimmune thyroid disease (AITD) is the leading cause of thyroid dysfunction globally, characterized primarily by two distinct clinical manifestations: Hashimoto's thyroiditis (HT) and Graves' disease (GD). The prevalence of AITD is approximately twice as high in women compared to men, with a particularly pronounced risk during the reproductive years. Pregnancy exerts profound effects on thyroid physiology and immune regulation due to hormonal fluctuations and immune adaptations aimed at fostering maternal-fetal tolerance, potentially triggering or exacerbating AITD.

: Women with polycystic ovarian syndrome (PCOS) are at higher risk for pregnancy complications. The PCOS population is heterogeneous, with different phenotypes linked to varying risks of adverse outcomes. However, literature on pre-conceptional hyperandrogenism is limited and based on small sample sizes.
