Dysregulated extravillous trophoblast invasion and proliferation are known to increase the risk of recurrent spontaneous abortion (RSA); however, the underlying mechanism remains unclear. Herein, in our retrospective observational case-cont…
BackgroundThis study aimed to investigate the clinical and pathological characteristics, and the recurrence and prognostic factors of borderline ovarian tumors (BOTs).MethodsThe data of 286 patients admitted to hospital and followed up for …
Cytochrome b reductase 1 (CYBRD1) promotes the development of ovarian serous cystadenocarcinoma (OV). We assessed the function of CYBRD1 in OV underlying The Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA) database. The correlation between clinicopathological c…
Although estrogen has crucial functions for endometrium growth, the specific dose and underlying molecular mechanism in intrauterine adhesion (IUA) remain unclear. In this study, we aimed to investigate the effects of estrogen on epithelial…
Corneal neovascularization (CNV) is a sight-threatening disease usually associated with inflammatory, infectious, degenerative, and traumatic disorders of the ocular surface. Fibroblast growth factor (FGF) family members play an important r…
ImportanceUS health care spending has continued to increase and now accounts for 18% of the US economy, although little is known about how spending on each health condition varies by payer, and how these amounts have changed over time.Objec…
ObjectivesPreoperative decision-making for differentiating malignant from benign lesions in the gallbladder remains challenging. We aimed to create a diagnostic nomogram to identify gallbladder cancer (GBC), especially for incidental GBC (I…
Mitochondrial homeostasis is closely associated with liver cancer progression via multiple mechanisms and is also a potential tumour-suppressive target in clinical practice. However, the role of mitochondrial fission in liver cancer cell vi…
In recent years, the study of oxidative stress (OS) has become increasingly popular. In particular, the role of OS on female fertility is very important and has been focused on closely. The occurrence of OS is due to the excessive productio…
BACKGROUND: To investigate the effect of applying doctor-nurse-patient integration management mode to patients with endometriosis (EMT). METHODS: A total of 160 patients with EMT from the Department of Neurology of The Fifth Affiliated Hosp…
Matrine is a natural alkaloid isolated from the root and stem of the legume plant Sophora. Its anti-proliferative and pro-apoptotic effects on several types of cancer have been well-documented. However, the role of matrine in regulating mit…
Aldo-keto reductases comprise of AKR1C1-AKR1C4, four enzymes that catalyze NADPH dependent reductions and have been implicated in biosynthesis, intermediary metabolism, and detoxification. Recent studies have provided evidences of strong co…
We investigate the estimation of intervention effect and sample size determination for experiments where subjects are supposed to contribute paired binary outcomes with some incomplete observations. We propose a hybrid estimator to appropri…
OBJECTIVE: To study the effect of GnRH-II on the cell proliferation, apoptosis and secreting vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) of ectopic, eutopic and normal endometrial stromal cells (ESC) from patients with or without endometriosi…
PURPOSE: To study the effect of gonadotropin-releasing hormone II (GnRHII) on the cell apoptosis of ectopic, eutopic and normal endometrial stromal cells cultured in vitro from endometriosis patients, and to provide theoretical basis for ex…
OBJECTIVE: Now there are more and more evidences that Cyclooxygenase-2 (COX-2) plays an important role in angiogenesis of endometriosis (EMs). Vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) has a potent angiogenic activity. However, it is worth …
