Previous studies have screened key candidate genes for litter size in sheep, including fibrillin-1 (FBN1), family with sequence similarity 184 member B (FAM184B) and zinc finger and AT-hook domain containing (ZFAT). Therefore, it is necessa…

Dietary factors are believed to potentially influence the risk of pancreatitis. Here, we systematically investigated the causal relationships between dietary habits and pancreatitis by using two-sample Mendelian randomization (MR). Large-sc…

BACKGROUND AND AIMS: Chronic inflammation plays a significant role in the etiology of endometriosis, which might be affected by dietary intake. This study aimed to investigate the association between dietary inflammatory index (DII) and the…

INTRODUCTION: Personal care products (PCPs) contain a number of endocrine-disrupting chemicals (EDCs) that could potentially affect the reproductive function in women of childbearing age. However, studies focused on the effects of PCPs use …

BACKGROUND: The decline in the quantity and quality of mitochondria are closely associated with infertility, particularly in advanced maternal age. Transferring autologous mitochondria into the oocytes of infertile females represents an inn…

Acute pancreatitis is an inflammatory disorder of the pancreas. Medical imaging, such as computed tomography (CT), has been widely used to detect volume changes in the pancreas for acute pancreatitis diagnosis. Many pancreas segmentation me…

RationaleThe management of bile duct injury (BDI) remains a considerable challenge in the department of hepatobiliary and pancreatic surgery. BDI is mainly iatrogenic and mostly occurs in laparoscopic cholecystectomy (LC). After more than 2…

BACKGROUND: The pathogenesis of pancreatitis involves diverse environmental risk factors, some of which have not yet been clearly elucidated. This study systematically investigated the causal effects of genetically predicted modifiable risk…

As one of the most critical economic traits, the litter performance of sows is influenced by their parity. Some studies have indicated a connection between the gut microbiota and the litter performance of animals. In this study, we examined…

Objective: To investigate the clinical characteristics, diagnosis, treatment, outcomes and prognostic factors of abdominal wall endometriosis (AWE). Methods: A total of 265 AWE patients who underwent surgical treatment in The First Affiliat…

ProblemDoes the presence of hydrothorax suggest that severe ovarian hyperstimulation syndrome (OHSS) is associated with more severe conditions and worse pregnancy outcomes?Method of studyThe clinical data for 868 hospital patients with seve…

OBJECTIVE: To compare the safety and efficacy of high-intensity focused ultrasound (HIFU) treatment for patients with internal or external adenomyosis based on magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) classification. MATERIALS AND METHODS: A total…

INTRODUCTION: Dysregulation of the stress-regulatory hormone cortisol is associated with anxiety, but its potential impact on infertile women and in vitro fertilization (IVF) treatment remains unclear. This prospective cross-sectional study…

The endometrium is a unique human tissue with an extraordinary ability to undergo a hormone-regulated cycle encompassing shedding, bleeding, scarless repair, and regeneration throughout the female reproductive cycle. The cyclical repair and…

INTRODUCTION: Many studies have revealed the effect of medical history on dementia. The aim of this study was to explore the relationship between the history of disease and onset of dementia. METHODS: This was a multi-center, cross-section…

BACKGROUND: To develop the preoperative prediction of ovarian lesions using regression-based statistics analyses and machine learning methods based on multiple serological biomarkers in China. METHODS: 1137 patients with ovarian lesions in…

OBJECTIVE: We tested the performance of general machine learning and joint machine learning algorithms in the classification of bone metastasis, in patients with lung adenocarcinoma. METHODS: We used R version 3.5.3 for statistical analysi…

Endometriosis is a common chronic gynecological disease with endometrial cell implantation outside the uterus. Angiogenesis is a major pathophysiology in endometriosis. Our previous studies have demonstrated that the prodrug of epigallocate…

BACKGROUND: Endometriosis (EMs) is a chronic inflammatory condition that is highly heterogeneous. Current clinical staging fails to accurately predict drug responses and prognosis. In this study, we aimed to reveal the heterogeneity of ecto…

BACKGROUND: Many women living with HIV (WLWH) experience pain. Alcohol use with the intent to treat pain could lead to hazardous drinking and difficulty in reducing drinking. Naltrexone acts on opioid receptors important for pain regulation…

This study was carried out to elucidate the biological function of HOTAIR in granulosa cells of endometriosis and the underlying mechanism. Granulosa cells were extracted from endometriosis patients and subjects with fallopian tube factor a…

Intrauterine adhesion (IUA) is a common gynecological disease with limited therapeutic options. Dulaglutide is a long-acting glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1) analog with some anti-fibrotic and anti-inflammatory properties; however, its actio…

OBJECTIVE: To investigate the effects of focused ultrasound ablation (FUSA) versus conventional myomectomy on pelvic adhesions and fertility in the treatment of uterine fibroids. METHODS: The clinical data of 114 patients with uterine fibr…

BackgroundAge-related fertility decay is a great challenge for clinicians. Growth hormone (GH) supplementation has been studied as an adjuvant since late 1980s. However, it has not come to a consensus on the GH administration due to the amb…

The aim of this study is to investigate the effect of human chorionic gonadotropin (hCG) in hormone replacement regimen for frozen-thawed embryos. We performed a retrospective cohort study and included patients who underwent frozen embryo t…
