MiR-19b-3p is involved in many diseases, but its functional role in EM-associated infertility remains unexplored. This study aimed to examine miR-19b-3p abundance and IGF1 concentration in cumulus cells (CCs) and follicular fluid of EM-associated infertility patients, and to investigate the potential role of miR-19b-3p in KGN cells by identifying its target and elucidating the underlying mechanisms.Results: The results from the case-control study indicated that, compared to the control group consisting of patients with tubal infertility, patients with EM-associated infertility exhibited a lower percentage of mature oocytes. MiR-19b-3p level was elevated in CCs from EM-associated infertility patients. IGF1 was identified as a direct target of miR-19b-3p and was negatively regulated by miR-19b-3p in KGN cells. Overexpression of miR-19b-3p significantly inhibited cell viability and proliferation, promoted apoptosis, and arrested the cell cycle at G0/G1 phase in KGN cells. The effects of miR-19b-3p were reversed by co-transfection of IGF1, and the biological effects of miR-19b-3p in KGN cells were mediated by IGF1. Additionally, miR-19b-3p targeted IGF1 to down-regulate AKT phosphorylation and participate in the apoptotic pathway in KGN cells.Conclusions: This study demonstrates that miR-19b-3p level is elevated in CCs and IGF1 concentration is decreased in follicular fluid in patients with EM-associated infertility.

With its heterogeneous nature, PCOS treatment should be tailored to individual symptoms and patient preferences. This study examines collaboration networks among countries, institutions, authors, references, and journals related to PCOS treatment.Methods: Web of Science data was analyzed using VOSviewer and CiteSpace for bibliometric visualization. Chinese and Western medicine treatments for PCOS were reviewed, emphasizing symptom-targeted solutions.Results: Data from 4682 records authored by 400 individuals from 515 institutes in 62 countries revealed China as the leading contributor. Notable authors include Monash University and Richard S. Legro. Common research themes include adipocytes, inflammation, insulin sensitivity, oxidative stress, and the gut microbiome. Tailoring treatment to individual needs is essential, focusing on hyperandrogenism, ovulation, and insulin resistance, with lifestyle counseling to address obesity.Conclusion: This bibliometric analysis provides valuable insights into the research status of PCOS treatment. China has made significant contributions, and complementary and alternative therapies, such as traditional Chinese medicine and acupuncture, have also shown beneficial effects recently. The research on inflammation, oxidative stress, and the gut microbiome may provide new targets and strategies for the treatment of PCOS.

This study assessed the correlation between PCOS and infertility.Methods: Using the latest data from the Global Burden of Disease 2019 database, we conducted an in-depth assessment of the disease burden attributed to PCOS in China. This analysis was performed using the joinpoint regression, age-period-cohort, and autoregressive integrated moving average (ARIMA) models.Results: Between 1990-2019, an upward trend was observed in the age-standardized prevalence of PCOS-related female infertility in China. Joinpoint regression analysis revealed an increasing trend in the age-standardized prevalence of PCOS-related female infertility burden indicators as well as the average annual percentage change and annual percentage change across all age groups in China. In terms of the cohort effect, the period rate ratios associated with the age-standardized prevalence of PCOS-related infertility increased steadily over time. The ARIMA model predicted a relatively swift upward trend in the age-standardized prevalence of PCOS-related infertility in China from 2020-2030.Conclusion: The age-standardized prevalence of PCOS-related female infertility in China has increased between 1990-2019. The ARIMA model predicted that the age-standardized prevalence of this disease may continue to increase over the next decade.

During ovarian stimulation for in-vitro fertilization (IVF), some patients will demonstrate an early rise in LH despite being treated with a gonadotropin releasing-hormone (GnRH) antagonist, sometimes necessitating cycle cancellation. Previous studies have demonstrated a possible link between a premature LH rise with ovarian response to gonadotropins. We sought to determine what clinical parameters can predict this premature LH rise and their relative contribution. Methods: A retrospective study of 382 patients who underwent IVF treatment at Rambam Medical Center. The patients were stratified into age groups. A model predicting premature LH rise based on clinical and demographic parameters was developed using both multiple linear regression and a machine-learning-based algorithm. Results: LH rise was defined as the difference between pre-trigger and basal LH levels. The clinical parameters that significantly predicted an LH rise were patient age, BMI, LH levels at stimulation outset, LH levels on day of antagonist administration, and total number of stimulation days. Importantly, when analyzing the data of specific age groups, the model's prediction was strongest in young patients (age 25-30 years, R2 = 0.88, p < .001) and weakest in older patients (age > 41 years, R2 = 0.23, p = .003). Conclusions: Using both multiple linear regression and a machine-learning-based algorithm of patient data from IVF cycles, we were able to predict patients at risk for premature LH rise and/or LH surge. Utilizing this model may help prevent IVF cycle cancellation and better timing of ovulation triggering.","PeriodicalId":12865,"journal":{"name":"Gynecological Endocrinology","volume":"40 1","pages":"2365913"},"PeriodicalIF":2.0,"publicationDate":"2024-12-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141467451","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The primary purpose of this research was to evaluate and contrast ovarian tissue elasticity in people with and without PCOS. The elasticity of ovarian tissue was quantified using standardized mean difference (SMD).Results: A total of eight studies were ultimately selected for systematic evaluation and meta-analysis. Five studies used shear wave elastography (SWE) as a diagnostic tool, and it was discovered that women with PCOS had higher levels of ovarian shear wave elasticity than their healthy counterparts. The SMD was determined to be 1.86 kilopascal (95% CI: 1.27 to 2.44). Three studies were conducted using strain elastography (SE) to compare the ovarian strain ratio of patients with PCOS to that of a healthy control group. The SMD for the PCOS group was 2.07 (95% CI: 1.79 to 2.34), which indicated that the ovarian strain ratio was significantly higher in that group.Conclusion: This systematic review and meta-analysis found that women with PCOS had stiffer ovarian tissue than women without the disorder.

We aimed to evaluate the chance of ovulation resumption after cessation of OCPs and MPA in women with PCOS.Methods: A retrospective study was conducted of women with PCOS who were treated with OCPs or cyclic MPA from September 2015 to March 2019. After cessation of medication, ovulation was assessed using basal body temperature and/or measurement of serum progesterone. The odds ratio for ovulation resumption was assessed with multivariable logistic regression. Additionally, doubly robust analysis was performed with inverse-probability-weighted analysis and regression adjustment based on the covariate balancing propensity score to adjust for the effect of covariates on the treatment assignment.Results: Among 272 women with PCOS, 136 were prescribed OCPs and 136 were prescribed cyclic MPA. Ovulation resumed in 18.4% of women (n = 25) after cessation of MPA and in 24.3% of women (n = 33) after cessation of OCPs. The odds of ovulation resumption in MPA users were comparable with those in OCP users (adjusted odds ratio (aOR) 1.00, 95% confidence interval (CI) 0.89-1.12). After multiple imputation due to missing values, the results did not change substantially (aOR 0.99, 95% CI 0.89-1.10).Conclusions: Among women with PCOS, MPA users have a similar chance of ovulation resumption as OCP users after cessation of medication.

Hormone replacement therapy is the first-line treatment. However, many women are reluctant to use HRT or have contraindications toward HRT and seek for alternatives. Non-hormonal therapies with extracts of Cimicifuga racemosa rhizomes like the isopropanolic extract (iCR, black cohosh) offer a promising alternative. A preclinical pilot study exploring iCR's effects on gene expression in the hippocampus and hypothalamus of ovarectomized (OVX) rats mimicking menopausal conditions identified important signaling pathways and CNS-based contributions to the multitargeted modes of action of iCR. Especially in the hippocampus, iCR compensated effects of OVX on gene expression profiles. These changes are reflected by the genes AVPR1A, GAL, CALCA, HCRT, PNOC, ESR1, ESR2 and TAC3 contributing to the formation of hot flushes or thermoregulation as well as to secondary effects such as blood pressure, metabolism, hormonal regulation, homeostasis, mood regulation, neuroendocrine modulation, regulation of sleep and arousal, and in learning, memory and cognition. To understand the mechanisms in the brain of estrogen-depressed animals (OVX) and subsequent iCR treatment we combined the results of the pilot study with those of up-to-date literature and tried to transfer the current knowledge to humans during menopausal transition and adaptation. Focus was laid on changes in the hippocampal function, that is disturbed by hormonal fluctuations, but can also be brought back into balance by iCR.","PeriodicalId":12865,"journal":{"name":"Gynecological Endocrinology","volume":"40 1","pages":"2360066"},"PeriodicalIF":2.0,"publicationDate":"2024-12-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141237406","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

To analyze the processes of all benchmarking participants three tools were used: a measurement of time needed for the different consultation types, a questionnaire for patients and one for physicians. The primary endpoint was the time measurement of first consultations. Secondary endpoints were the time measurements of follow-up consultations and phone consultations and patient satisfaction.Results: The mean overall duration of a first consultation differed from 20.4 min to 39.7 min (p = 0.003), mainly based on differences of the mean time to acquire the patient history, 5.6 to 21.6 min (p < 0.001). The percentage of patients who felt they had enough time to discuss questions ranged from 70% to 100% (p < 0.001).
