The purpose of this study was to (i) determine the cervical microbial composition in different abortion samples and to (ii) investigate the correlation between spontaneous abortion and cervical microbes in Korean women. We collected cervical swabs from women who had never undergone abortion ( = 36), had spontaneous abortion ( = 23), and had undergone induced abortion ( = 88) and subjected those samples to 16S rRNA pyrosequencing. Further, factor analysis and correlation between cervical microbiota and spontaneous abortion were evaluated by logistic regression analysis. In spontaneous abortion women, 16 S rRNA gene sequences showed significant increases in , spp., , , and compared to women in nonabortion group. In multivariate logistic regression analysis, (OD = 11.27; 95% = 1.57-81) (OD = 11.47; 95% = 1.22-107.94), (OD = 6.89; 95% = 1.07-44.33), and factor 1 microbes (OD = 16.4; 95% = 1.88-42.5) were strongly associated with spontaneous abortion. This study showed a high prevalence of , and factor 1 microbes in spontaneous abortion and association with spontaneous abortion in Korean women.

Introduction: Bushenhuoxue formula is a traditional Chinese medicine formula with relatively safe clinical effects, but its mechanism in recurrent spontaneous abortion (RSA) is still unclear. Our present study used Network pharmacology an experimental validation to discuss how Bushenhuoxue formula improves prethrombotic state in RSA.
Materials And Methods: The active ingredients of Bushenhuoxue formula (Drug) were acquired from our previous study.

Background: Female reproductive disorders (FRDs) are common diseases among women of childbearing age, affecting their reproductive health. Age at first sexual intercourse (AFS) is potentially linked to FRDs, and this study aims to investigate these associations and underlying mechanisms, to offer new insights and guidance for sex education in adolescent women and reproductive health management.
Methods: Mendelian randomization (MR) analysis was performed using summary data from genome-wide association studies (GWASs).

Familial Mediterranean Fever (FMF) is frequently diagnosed during reproductive ages, but its impact on pregnancy remains unclear. We aimed to evaluate maternal and neonatal outcomes in FMF pregnancies by comparing before and after diagnosis periods as well as with healthy controls, and to identify predictors of adverse outcomes. This retrospective, cross-sectional study included 215 pregnancies (129 before and 86 after FMF diagnosis) from 81 women with FMF and 94 pregnancies from 42 healthy controls.

Background: Recurrent Implantation Failure (RIF) is defined as the inability to establish pregnancy despite high-quality embryo transfer after the application of at least three consecutive in vitro fertilization (IVF)/intracytoplasmic sperm injection-embryo transfer procedures. Chromosomal abnormalities are one of the primary reasons for pregnancy failure, miscarriage, and birth defects in both natural conception and IVF pregnancies. This study was to evaluate the incidence of chromosomal abnormalities in peripheral blood samples from 100 couples who experienced RIF.

In the developmental origins of health and disease (DOHaD) paradigm, there is a clear link between an adverse prenatal environment and the development of non-hereditary diseases later in life. Exposure to intrauterine inflammation, for example, has been associated with several late-onset conditions, including neurological, cardiovascular, immune, and metabolic disorders. Moreover, maternal and fetal health are compromised under exacerbated inflammation, as it can result in spontaneous abortion, preterm delivery, or intrauterine growth restriction.
