Background/Objectives: This study explored the potential of Hinoki aromatherapy to induce biomarkers of dysmenorrhea relief through working memory. Structural magnetic resonance imaging and magnetoencephalography (MEG) were used to examine …

UNLABELLED: Yang-deficiency constitution (YADC) is linked to a higher vulnerability to various diseases, such as cold coagulation and blood stasis (CCBS) syndrome and infertility. Endometrial hyperplastic processes (EHPs) are a leading caus…

Objective: To investigate the predictive value of platelet-to-lymphocyte ratio (PLR), red blood cell distribution width to platelet count ratio (RPR) and systemic immune inflammation index (SII) in the staging and postoperative recurrence o…

Objective: To investigate the expression levels and clinical significance of glioma-associated oncogene homolog 1 (GLI1) and sonic hedgehog signaling molecule (Shh) in the malignant transformation of ovarian endometriosis (EM). Methods: The…
