Oocyte quality, a critical determinant of female reproductive potential, experiences a progressive decline with age, largely driven by the cumulative effects of oxidative stress and mitochondrial dysfunction. This review thoroughly …
Background: Endometriosis is a major cause of female infertility. It significantly impacts oocyte quality and embryonic development. The condition's pathophysiological mechanisms are multifactorial. However, they are believed to be reflected …
Endometriosis is a chronic hormone-responsive disorder linked to infertility, usually characterized by the presence of ectopic endometrium in the pelvis that disrupts local homeostasis. Advances in single-cell "omic" methods have …
Oxidative stress has emerged as a key factor regulating female fertility, reproductive aging, and the development of various gynecologic and pregnancy-associated diseases. While physiological concentrations of reactive oxygen species play …
Endometriosis is a chronic, estrogen-dependent inflammatory disorder that is increasingly recognized as a systemic condition with profound implications for female reproductive potential. In addition to pelvic distortion and impaired folliculogenesis, …
This study investigated whether the average oocyte quality index (AOQI), used as a dysmorphic oocyte scoring system, is higher in women with ovarian endometrioma than in those with unexplained infertility …
Female infertility is a multifactorial condition with complex biological and clinical underpinnings. Biologically, female-related infertility may stem from disruptions in the hypothalamic-pituitary-ovarian (HPO) axis, impaired folliculogenesis, oocyte maturation defects, uterine …
Introduction Scientific evidence has shown that regular physical activity (PA) is beneficial to health. However, no consensus has been reached on the association between PA and the success rates of …
Endometriosis is diagnosed in 25% to 40% of infertile patients. This disease can affect ovarian reserve and oocyte quality, as a result Assisted Reproductive Technology is often required. However, the …
The reduction in oocyte competence and ovarian reserve coincides with reproductive ageing; nevertheless, the molecular mechanisms underlying this phenomenon remain poorly understood. Our testable mechanistic hypothesis is that the oxidative …
