The present study aimed to investigate the potential effect of fibronectin (FN) in adenomyosis progression. Small guide RNAs were designed to knock down FN expression in Ishikawa cells. The impact of FN on the proliferation, apoptosis, migr…
PurposeHuman follicular fluid (FF) is a complex biological fluid that contributes to the micro-environment of oocyte development. The aim of this study was to evaluate the role of steroid and gonadotropic hormones levels and mitochondrial f…
BackgroundIn this study, we aimed to identify novel biomarkers for polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) and analyze their potential roles in immune infiltration during PCOS pathogenesis.MethodsFive datasets, namely GSE137684, GSE80432, GSE11441…
Long noncoding RNAs (lncRNAs) are a series of RNA molecules without ability to code proteins. LncRNAs have emerged as significant players in almost all aspects of gene function and regulation and play crucial roles in many human diseases. P…
Endometriosis remains a widespread but severe gynecological disease in women of reproductive age, with an unknown etiology and few treatment choices. The menstrual reflux theory is largely accepted as the underlying etiology but does not ex…
Ovarian carcinoma (OV) is a lethal gynecological malignancy. Most OV patients develop resistance to platinum-based chemotherapy and recurrence. Peroxisome proliferator-activated receptors (PPARs) are the ligand activating transcription fact…
BACKGROUND: To explore the prognostic role of ovarian endometriosis in symptomatic adenomyosis patients underwent uterine artery embolization (UAE). METHODS: This was a retrospective, single-center study. A total of 76 patients with adenomy…
PurposeTo explore the trends of oocyte and pregnancy outcomes over the ovulation trigger-OPU (oocyte pickup) time interval in four mainly used COH protocols.MethodsThis retrospective study was conducted between January 2013 and July 2018. T…
Background: To investigate the optimal ovulation trigger-oocyte pickup (OPU) interval of a progestin-primed ovarian stimulation (PPOS) protocol. Method: Patients with normal ovarian reserve in their first PPOS OPU cycle were enrolled in thi…
Persistent organic pollutants (POPs) present in foods have been a major concern for food safety due to their persistence and toxic effects. To ensure food safety and protect human health from POPs, it is critical to achieve a better underst…
Gestation and delivery can increase intra-abdominal pressure, which are well-known risk factors for Pelvic Organ Prolapse (POP). But the pathogenesis mechanism of POP remains unclear. Our previous research showed that the expression of glut…
The aim of the present study was to investigate the effects of thymosin β4 on a rat model of severe acute pancreatitis (SAP) induced by sodium taurocholate (STC) and the underlying mechanism. SAP was induced by the retrograde infusion of 5%…
ObjectiveA meta-analysis was conducted to determine the effectiveness of using gonadotropin-releasing hormone analogues (GnRH-a), both with and without hormonal add-back therapy, for the management of endometriosis.MethodsCochrane library, …
ObjectiveTo investigate the relationship between the size of an excised endometrioma and the magnitude of damage to the ovary after the surgery.DesignA retrospective, controlled study.SettingA university hospital.Patient(s)Eighty-five women…
