RATIONALE: Hyperreactio luteinalis (HL) involving a unilateral ovary is extremely rare, and the clinical presentation of HL can mimic that of ovarian malignancy, resulting in potential misdiagnosis and unnecessary surgical interventions. P…
Endometriosis, the most prevalent cause of infertility, is associated with anatomical distortion leading to adhesions and fibrosis, as well as endocrine abnormalities and immune disorders. This review discusses the mechanisms underlying end…
AIMS: Endometriosis development is associated with peritoneal immune microenvironment abnormality; however, the specific mechanism is uncertain. We aimed to investigate the effects and underlying mechanisms of uterine cavity-derived exosome…
OBJECTIVE: To investigate the clinical characteristics and prognostic factors in patients with endometriosis-associated ovarian cancer. METHODS: In this study, we retrospectively analyzed the medical records of 135 ovarian cancer patients …
BACKGROUND: The causal impact of lipid-lowering drugs on ovarian cancer (OC) and cervical cancer (CC) has received considerable attention, but its causal relationship is still a subject of debate. Hence, the objective of this study is to ev…
INTRODUCTION: Hysterectomy is the most common surgical procedure in the field of gynaecology. The traditional multiport laparoscopy, transumbilical laparoendoscopic single-site surgery (TU-LESS) and transvaginal natural orifice transluminal…
Endometriosis, a chronic inflammatory disease, significantly impairs the quality of life of women in their reproductive years; however, its pathogenesis remains poorly understood. The accumulation of retrograde menstruation and recurrent bl…
BACKGROUND: Poor oocyte quality remains one of the major challenges for polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) patients during in vitro fertilization (IVF) treatment. Granulosa cells (GCs) in PCOS display altered functions and could cause an unfa…
INTRODUCTION AND HYPOTHESIS: The objective was to investigate the correlation between endogenous vaginal microecological alterations and female pelvic organ prolapse (POP). METHODS: Patients who underwent vaginal hysterectomy were retrospe…
OBJECTIVE: To investigate the etiological distribution of hydronephrosis caused by upper urinary tract obstruction in adult patients and to improve the diagnostic accuracy for this condition. METHODS: The clinical information of adult pati…
Long noncoding RNAs (lncRNAs), which are more than 200 nucleotides in length and do not encode proteins, play crucial roles in governing gene expression at both the transcriptional and posttranscriptional levels. These molecules demonstrate…
BACKGROUND: This study examined the improvement of dysmenorrhoea and menorrhagia after uterine artery embolisation (UAE) in women with symptomatic adenomyosis and identified factors that could predict the improvement of dysmenorrhoea and me…
To identify credible causal risk variants (CCVs) associated with different histotypes of epithelial ovarian cancer (EOC), we performed genome-wide association analysis for 470,825 genotyped and 10,163,797 imputed SNPs in 25,981 EOC cases an…
BACKGROUND: This study aimed to examine the differential variations in the metabolic composition of follicular fluid (FF) among normal-weight patients with polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) and controls and to identify potential biomarkers t…
RATIONALE: Hysterectomy after microwave ablation (MWA) is more difficult than conventional surgery which increases the probability of postoperative complications due to MWA's collateral thermal damage to nearby intestines. Here we report a …
PURPOSE: This research focused on meticulously tracking and identifying adverse reactions associated with leuprorelin, a drug prescribed for conditions such as prostate cancer, endometriosis, uterine fibroids, and early-onset puberty. The m…
Endometriosis is a gynecological and painful condition affecting women of reproductive age. It is characterized by dysfunctional endometrium-like implants outside of uterine.The purpose of this study was to investigate the effect of Paeonif…
BACKGROUND: To explore the incidence of chronic endometritis (CE) in patients with infertility and different forms of adenomyosis and analyze potential high-risk factors for infection. METHODS: This retrospective cohort study included 154 …
BACKGROUND: Growth hormone (GH) could improve the outcomes of in vitro fertilization and embryo transfer (IVF-ET) in patients with decreased ovarian reserve (DOR), but which age group will benefit the most has remained controversial. This s…
INTRODUCTION: Primary cilia play an important role in the development of cancer by regulating signaling pathways. Several studies have demonstrated that women with BRCA mutations have, on average, 50% fewer ciliated cells compared with gene…
BACKGROUND: Menopause significantly impacts the immune system. Postmenopausal women are more susceptible to infection. Nonetheless, the pattern of change in peripheral white blood cell counts around the menopause remains poorly understood. …
INTRODUCTION: Menstrual blood-derived stem cells (MenSCs) are vital in treating many degenerative and traumatic disorders. However, the underlying molecular mechanisms remain obscure in MenSCs-treating spinal cord injury (SCI) rats. METHOD…
PURPOSE: To assess the clinical characteristics and the risk factors related to the unfavorable prognosis of endometrioid ovarian carcinoma (EOVC) based on data from the Surveillance, Epidemiology, and End Results (SEER) database and two cl…
BACKGROUND: Little is known about the relationship between early life body size and occurrence of life-course multiple chronic diseases (multimorbidity). We aim to evaluate associations of birth weight, childhood body size, and their change…
OBJECTIVE: This study aims to explore formula patterns and application rules for SP6 as the main acupoint in prescriptions, utilizing association rules. METHODS: We conducted an extensive search in databases including China National Knowle…
