INTRODUCTION AND AIMS: Oral squamous cell carcinoma (OSCC) is a common malignant tumour of the head and neck region. In recent years, the relationship between pyroptosis and tumours has received increasing attention. However, its regulatory…
Endometriosis, affecting approximately 10% of reproductive-aged women worldwide, is widely recognized as a chronic inflammatory disease. Inflammation-related genes (IRGs) play a crucial role in the occurrence and progression of various dise…
BACKGROUND: Aggressive Angiomyxoma (AAM) is a rare mesenchymal tumor characterized by local invasiveness and a high recurrence rate, often arising in the pelvis and perineum. CASE PRESENTATION: We report a 49-year-old woman presenting with…
INTRODUCTION: In this exploratory case-control study, we investigated the potential associations of pregnancy-associated plasma protein-A (PAPP-A), β-human chorionic gonadotrophin (β-HCG), vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF), and leuk…
Abstract Endometriosis, affecting approximately 10% of reproductive-aged women worldwide, is a typical chronic inflammatory disease. Inflammation-related genes (IRGs) play a crucial role in the occurrence and progression of various disease…
The sperm DNA fragmentation index (DFI) is a metric used to assess DNA fragmentation within sperm. During in vitro fertilization-embryo transfer (IVF-ET), high sperm DFI can lead to a low fertilization rate, poor embryo development, early m…
The changes in T regulatory cell (Treg) and T helper cell (Th) 17 ratios holds paramount importance in ensuring internal homeostasis and disease progression. Recently, novel subsets of Treg and Th17, namely IL-17-producing Treg and IL-10-pr…
BACKGROUND: Decidual macrophages participate in immune regulation at the maternal-fetal interface. Abnormal M1/M2 polarization of decidual macrophages might predispose immune maladaptation in recurrent pregnancy loss (RPL). However, the mec…
Endometriosis is a gynecological inflammatory disease that is linked with immune cells, specifically macrophages. IL-33 secreted from macrophages is known to accelerate the progression of endometriosis. The periodic and repeated bleeding th…
Abstract Endometriosis is a gynecological inflammatory disease which linked with immune cells, specifically macrophages. And IL-33 secreted from macrophages is known to accelerate the progression of endometriosis. The periodic and repeated …
Abstract Purpose To investigate whether the assisted reproductive technology (ART) outcome differed amongst women with primary and recurrent endometriomas and to identify prognostic factors for a poor cumulative live birth rate (cLBR) in …
To compare the patients' outcomes of Asherman syndrome who underwent uterine adhesiolysis in luteal phase or follicular phase.A retrospective cohort study.A tertiary hospital in China.Four hundred sixty-four women suffered intrauterine adhe…
OBJECTIVE: To observe the clinical effect of acupuncture by stages on secondary dysmenorrhea of adenomyosis through prospective case-series study. METHODS: A total of 36 cases of adenomyosis patients with moderate-to-severe dysmenorrhea we…
BACKGROUND: Female sex workers (FSWs) are key groups in the transmission of sexual transmitted infections (STI), and vaginal microbiome variations play an important role in transmission. We aimed to explore the characteristics of vaginal mi…
Glioblastomas are capable of infiltrating into neighboring brain tissues. The prognosis of a male patient is worse than that of women. Here, we demonstrate the effects of estrogen on invasion of glioma cells via regulating estrogen nuclear …
OBJECTIVE: To investigate whether the embryotoxic effect of peritoneal fluid (PF) from infertile women with mild endometriosis on mouse oocytes and embryos is associated with changes in embryonic epidermal growth factor (EGF), insulin-like …
BACKGROUND: Motherwort has been used as medicinal herb for many years in both China and Europe. In particular, Chinese motherwort has been commonly used to treat disorders of mammary gland in Chinese traditional medicine (TCM). Chinese moth…
