A Biomarker‐Driven Ovary–Endometrium Organ‐on‐a‐Chip Mimicking 3D Multicellular Complexity and Menstrual Cyclicity for Predicting Reproductive Toxicity

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
We present a dual‐organ, biomarker‐integrated ovaryendometrium organ‐on‐a‐chip that recapitulates 3D tissue complexity, menstrual cycle dynamics, and hormonal crosstalk. This platform enables real‐time, cell‐typespecific fluorescent readouts of reproductive toxicity using ANGPTL4 and SERPINB2 as early‐response reporters.

The diagnostic accuracy of two human epididymis protein 4 (HE4) testing systems in combination with CA125 in the differential diagnosis of ovarian masses [PDF]

, 2011
Background: Cancer antigen 125 (CA125) is the best known single tumor marker for ovarian cancer (OC). We investigated whether the additional information of the human epididymis protein 4 (HE4) improves diagnostic accuracy.

Real‐World Effectiveness and Safety of Recombinant Human Follicle‐Stimulating Hormone (rhFSH) in Infertile Women undergoing Assisted Reproductive Technology (ART): A Korean Nationwide Cohort Study

Clinical Pharmacology &Therapeutics, EarlyView.
Despite widespread rhFSH use in infertile women undergoing ART, real‐world comparative data on its effectiveness and safety across different rhFSH types remain limited. Using the HIRA claims database, we included 10,684 women aged 20–39 with infertility (2016–2021) who used only rhFSH in their first in vitro fertilization–embryo transfer (IVF‐ET ...
