OBJECTIVE: This study aims to propose a novel, reproducible transvaginal ultrasound (TVUS) measurement-anterior-posterior wall thickness of the uterine isthmus ratio (APTUIR)-and to construct a nomogram model integrating this parameter with…

OBJECTIVES: To evaluate the value of radiomics based on ultrasound in differentiating uterine fibroids (UFs) and uterine adenomyomas (AMs) and construct a noninvasive tool for this differentiation. METHODS: The clinical data and ultrasound…

BACKGROUND: Infertility affects many couples worldwide, and the accurate assessment of endometrial receptivity (ER) is critical. However, conventional ultrasound has limited predictive value. Multiparameter quantitative ultrasound is a prom…

BACKGROUND: Abnormalities in ureteral motility often precede morphological changes, and early subtle lesions are easily overlooked, thereby increasing the risk of renal impairment. However, existing imaging assessments tend to focus on qual…

BACKGROUND: To describe the evolution and outcomes of protocol-orientated multidisciplinary quality improvement for clinically confirmed placenta accreta spectrum (PAS) disorders mainly receiving uterine preservation. METHODS: This single-…

Endometriosis (EMS), a chronic inflammatory disease affecting approximately 10 % reproductive aged women, remains etiologically unclear. This study aims to investigate the role and underlying mechanisms of frizzled class receptor 7 (FZD7) i…

BACKGROUND: To date, there is no consensus on the optimal endometrial preparation protocol for frozen-thawed embryo transfer (FET) in patients with a thin endometrium. This study evaluated the effects of different endometrial preparation pr…

The pressing need for safer, more efficacious analgesics is felt worldwide. Preclinical tests in animal models of painful conditions represent one of the earliest checkpoints novel therapeutics must negotiate before consideration for human …

BACKGROUND: Minimally-invasive 5-aminolevulinic acid photodynamic therapy (ALA-PDT) is used for treating cervical high-grade squamous intraepithelial lesions (HSIL/CIN2). The purpose of this study was to analyze the factors affecting the ef…

OBJECTIVE: This report summarizes the characteristics of a series of 8 recent (2020-2022) patients with abdominal wall endometriosis (AWE) who underwent laparoscopic surgery. The feasibility and advantages of laparoscopy in the treatment of…

BACKGROUND: Monoamine oxidases (MAOs) is an enzyme that catalyzes the deamination of monoamines. The current research on this enzyme is focused on its role in neuropsychiatric, neurodevelopmental, and neurodegenerative diseases. Indeed, MAO…

BACKGROUND: Ovarian cancer remains a leading cause of death among women, largely due to its asymptomatic early stages and high mortality when diagnosed late. Early detection significantly improves survival rates, and the Ovarian-Adnexal Rep…

AXIN1, has been initially identified as a prominent antagonist within the WNT/β-catenin signaling pathway, and subsequently unveiled its integral involvement across a diverse spectrum of signaling cascades. These encompass the WNT/β-catenin…

The pressing need for safer, more efficacious analgesics is felt worldwide. Pre-clinical tests in animal models of painful conditions represent one of the earliest checkpoints novel therapeutics must negotiate before consideration for human…

Background Abdominal wall endometriosis (AWE) is the most common type of extrapelvic endometriosis in women of reproductive age, and several studies have compared high-intensity focused ultrasound (HIFU) ablation with surgical resection in …

OBJECTIVE: There have been a variety of published studies on the expression of serum miR-21 in patients with ovarian cancer associated with the diagnostic value of ovarian cancer, but the conclusions are not clearly elucidated. This study a…

BACKGROUND: Fecal incontinence (FI) has been shown to be a common symptom in Western countries; however, there is few researches focusing on its epidemic condition in Chinese women. We conducted this national population-based epidemiology s…

Objective: The surgical approach, hemostatic approach, histologic findings, and cyst size and location may have a role in reducing the ovarian reserve. The aim of this study was to investigate the impact of single-port laparoscopic cystecto…

Nuclear factor (NF)-κB pathway is an evolutionally conserved pathway in activating immune response, in which IκBs can repress the activation. In the present study, cgi-miR-2d, an invertebrate-specific microRNA, was proved to regulate CgIκB2…

The female inflorescences of hops (Humulus lupulus L.), a well-known bittering agent used in the brewing industry, have long been used in traditional medicines. Xanthohumol (XN) is one of the bioactive substances contributing to its medical…

OBJECTIVE: Clinicopathological characteristics and possible prognostic factors among women with endometrioid epithelial ovarian cancer (EEOC) with or without concurrent endometriosis were investigated. STUDY DESIGN: A search of medical cha…

OBJECTIVE: To explore the association between epithelial ovarian cancer (EOC) and common benign gynecological disorders. STUDY DESIGN: The medical records of 226 patients with EOC treated at Peking Union Medical College Hospital between Ma…

OBJECTIVES: To explore the differences between women with endometriosis associated ovarian cancer and typical epithelial ovarian cancer. STUDY DESIGN: The medical charts of total 226 patients with epithelial ovarian cancer treated at Pekin…

OBJECTIVE: To investigate the inhibitory effect of lentiviral vector-mediated short hairpin RNA targeting survivin (LV-survivin shRNA) on angiogenesis and growth of endometriosis-like lesions in chick en embryo chorioallantoic membrane. ME…
