Background: Adenomyosis (AM) is a common benign gynaecologic disease characterized by dysmenorrhea and heavy menstrual bleeding and requires for long-term management. Levonorgestrel - releasing Intrauterine System (LNG-IUS) is a long-acting…

Mice with experimental nerve damage can display long‑lasting neuropathic pain behavior. We show here that 4 months and later after nerve injury, male but not female mice displayed telomere length (TL) reduction and p53‑mediated cellular sen…

BackgroundSpontaneous abortions (SA) is amongst the most common complications associated with pregnancy in humans, and the underlying causes cannot be identified in roughly half of SA cases. We found miR-135a-5p to be significantly upregula…

Endometriosis is a benign gynecological disease. Accumulating evidence has revealed the participation of dysregulated miRNAs in the progression of endometriosis. Here, the function and molecular mechanism of miR-143-3p in endometriosis were…

BackgroundColorectal cancer (CRC) is one of the leading causes of cancer-related death worldwide. P21 activated kinase 4 (PAK4) and Breast cancer anti-estrogen resistance 3 (BCAR3) have been reported to be involved in numerous aspects in tu…

This study aims to explore the molecular mechanism of N6-methyladenosine (m6A) modification-related long noncoding RNA (lncRNA)-microRNA (miRNA)-messenger RNA (mRNA) network in regulating autophagy and affecting the occurrence and developme…

BackgroundA number of studies have compared the clinical outcomes between the two endometrial preparation methods: natural cycles (NCs) and hormone replacement treatment (HRT) before frozen embryo transfer, but the results were conflicting.…

OBJECTIVE: To review the use of oral gonadotropin-releasing hormone (GnRH) antagonists and synthesize their efficacy and safety parameters for the treatment of endometriosis-associated pain. DESIGN: Systematic review and network meta-analy…

Early diagnosis of cancer is crucial to initiate prompt treatment for better patient outcomes. The host immune function and its associated modulators are considered to be potential biomarkers for early cancer diagnosis. Immune and immune-ch…

Ulcerative colitis (UC) is a persistent and diffuse inflammatory disease of the intestine. It is widely prevalent in developed countries. Approximately 30% of patients with UC suffer from widespread and aggressive colitis and are at increas…

The incidence of endometrial adenocarcinoma (EA) has increased worldwide in recent years due to the widespread use of estrogen therapy and the overall increase in life expectancy. However, we know of no sensitive molecular index that can be…

Colorectal cancer (CRC) is a serious public health issue, and it has the leading incidence and mortality among malignant tumors worldwide. CRC patients with metastasis in the liver, lung or other distant sites always have poor prognosis. Th…

PurposeTo classify abdominal wall endometriosis (AWE) according to the invasive levels of tissue mass, and to compare the differences in clinical characteristics between different types of AWE.MethodsIn this study, we retrospectively analyz…

OBJECTIVE: This study aimed to establish an effective prognostic nomogram for the postoperative recurrence of endometrioma or endometriosis-related pain for patients with endometrioma after long-term follow-up, who were younger than 45 year…

The high detection rate of pulmonary subsolid nodules (SSN) is an increasingly crucial clinical issue due to the increased number of screening tests and the growing popularity of low-dose computed tomography (LDCT). The persistence of SSN s…

BACKGROUND: The possible impact of ovarian endometriomas (OMAs) on in vitro fertilization (IVF) outcomes remains controversial. Therefore, this study aimed to assess the impact of OMAs on IVF cycle parameters, including ovarian reserve and …

Ischemic stroke (IS) is a severe disease with a high disability, recurrence, and mortality rates. Autophagy, a highly conserved process that degrades damaged or aging organelles and excess cellular components to maintain homeostasis, is act…

During implantation, a symphony of interaction between the trophoblast originated from the trophectoderm of the implanting blastocyst and the endometrium leads to a successful pregnancy. Defective interaction between the trophoblast and end…

Background and objectiveCancer is an important disease and can occur anywhere in the body. It is caused by uncontrolled cell growth that spreads to other body parts. This study extensively investigated the transmembrane receptor tissue fact…

Asherman's Syndrome (AS) is caused by dysfunction of endometrial regenerative ability, which is controlled by adult stem cells and their niche. The Wnt signaling pathway has been demonstrated to be implicated in this process. This study aim…

IntroductionAs a new minimally invasive surgery, transvaginal natural orifice transluminal endoscopic surgery (vNOTES) has been proved to be suitable for the treatment of a variety of gynecological benign diseases. However, compared with ot…

Deubiquitination is a major form of post-translational protein modification involved in the regulation of protein homeostasis and various cellular processes. Deubiquitinating enzymes (DUBs), comprising about five subfamily members, are key …

A distinct age-related alteration in the uterine environment has recently been identified as a prevalent cause of the reproductive decline in older female mice. However, the molecular mechanisms that underlie age-associated uterine adaptabi…

Research questionIs there an association between intrauterine hematoma (IUH), vanishing twin syndrome (VTS), and subsequent complications in twin pregnancies after in vitro fertilization (IVF)? What are the risk factors for these complicati…

17β-estradiol (E2) plays a key role in endometriosis through regulation of angiogenesis. Smad1 has been reported to be up-regulated in patients with endometriosis. However, the role of Smad1 in E2-mediated angiogenesis during the developmen…
