Summary: The study suggests that surgical treatment of uterine septum is beneficial in improving reproductive outcomes, even though there is controversy over the necessity of surgery. The retrospective observational study provides evidence that hysteroscopic incision may enhance reproductive performance in women with uterine septum, but high quality prospective studies are needed for further confirmation.

Summary: Intrauterine adhesions (IUAs) are a common reproductive system disease in women worldwide, leading to impaired reproductive function and outcomes. A precise understanding of the underlying causes, related mechanisms, and processes explaining the association with IUAs and impaired fertility is still lacking.

Summary: Reproductive issues are a growing global concern, and there is increasing interest in understanding the relationship between microbiota and reproductive health. Stable microbiota communities exist in various parts of the reproductive system, and dysbiosis can have detrimental effects on gamete quality, embryo development, and disease susceptibility. A healthy microbiota, on the other hand, can protect against pathogens, improve reproductive potential, and reduce adverse pregnancy outcomes. This review explores the effects and mechanisms of microbiota on reproduction, factors influencing microbiota composition, and potential applications in reproductive disorder treatment and detection.

Summary: The use of the M4 model in pregnancies conceived by ART with low beta-hCG concentration in early gestation showed limited capacity in classifying them as being at low or high risk for EP, therefore, its use in pregnancies of this type is not recommended. No serious adverse events or complications related to the use of the model were observed.

Summary: Climate change is a major risk factor for overall health, including reproductive health. This review examines the evidence for the adverse impacts of climate change-related factors on male and female fertility, the developing fetus, and obstetric outcomes, highlighting the unique role of reproductive health care providers in mitigating the effects of climate change.

Summary: This study evaluated the accuracy of the home-based fertility monitor, Inito Fertility Monitor (IFM), in measuring urinary hormones and identified novel hormone trends in natural menstrual cycles. The IFM showed accurate recovery percentage and high correlation with ELISA in measuring E3G, PdG, and LH. It also introduced a novel criterion for earlier confirmation of ovulation and identified a new hormone trend associated with most menstrual cycles.

Summary: Chronic endometritis (CE) is associated with infertility and reproductive failures. The lack of standardized methods to assess plasma cells makes the diagnosis challenging. This study suggests that a threshold of ≥5 plasma cells/10 HPF may be more appropriate for diagnosing CE, as plasma cells at lower levels (<5/10 HPF) may not predict worsened pregnancy outcomes.

Summary: Infertility in women with Crohn's disease and ulcerative colitis may be addressed through assisted reproductive technology (ART), with pregnancy and live birth rates similar to the general population. However, efficacy of ART may be reduced in patients with CD-related surgery and IPAA failure.

Summary: Despite improved knowledge on obstetrical management of Inflammatory Bowel Diseases (IBDs), many patients still avoid pregnancy due to fear of adverse maternal and neonatal outcomes, disease activity, IBD inheritance, and risk of congenital malformations. Misconceptions about safety of drugs during pregnancy and breastfeeding influence patient choice, while physicians also express concerns about using IBD medications during pregnancy. Pre-conception counseling is crucial in reassuring patients that maintaining disease remission and managing obstetrical risks is possible.

Summary: The study found that agricultural residues with different lignin content affect biogas production, with lower lignin content resulting in higher gas production efficiency. Microbial communities are also influenced by the residues, with different lignin-rich residues selectively enriching different methanogenic pathways.
