BACKGROUND: Colorectal cancer (CRC) is one of the most common malignancies. Although CRC treatment has been significantly improved, patient survival remains low because most patients already have advanced disease at diagnosis. Early screeni…
We aimed to determine the clinical outcome of double cleavage-stage embryo transfers in frozen-thawed embryo transfer cycles for older women.This study analyzed a total of 8189 cleavage-stage frozen-thawed embryo transfer cycles between Jan…
Extracellular vesicles (EVs) carry specific proteins involved in intercellular communication. EVs with different protein contents are released into circulation in different diseases. Recent studies have identified proteins in adenomyosis (A…
Intrauterine adhesions (IUA), characterized by endometrial fibrosis, is a common cause of uterine infertility. We previously demonstrated that partial epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT) and the loss of epithelial homeostasis play a vit…
OBJECTIVE: To assess the efficacy of the Zishen Yutai Pill compared with placebo on live birth rates among women after fresh embryo transfer cycles. METHODS: We conducted a double-blind, multicenter, placebo-controlled, randomized trial to…
BACKGROUND: Primary dysmenorrhea (PD) is a painful disease that severely affects the daily lives of young women. External therapy using traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) is widely used in the clinical treatment of this disease and has achi…
BACKGROUND: Endometrial stromal sarcoma (ESS) is a uterine stromal tumor with a very low incidence, accounting for 10-15% of all uterine stromal malignancies and 0.2% of all uterine malignancies. The most common extrauterine location of ESS…
OBJECTIVE: To evaluate the mid-term symptom improvement of patients with different types of adenomyosis based on magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) classification after ultrasound-guided high intensity focused ultrasound (USgHIFU) treatment. …
PURPOSE: Human 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…
Background: Immunotherapy is a promising strategy for ovarian cancer (OC), and this study aims to identify biomarkers related to CD8+ T cell infiltration to further discover the potential therapeutic target. Methods: Three datasets with OC …
BACKGROUND: Endometrial scratching (ES) has demonstrated initial success in women with recurrent implantation failure, but the effect in women with 1 previous assisted reproductive technology (ART) failure is unknown. This meta-analysis aim…
Objective: Endometriosis is a chronic inflammatory estrogen-dependent disease with the growth of endometrial tissues outside the uterine cavity. Nevertheless, the etiology of endometriosis is still unclear. Integrated bioinformatics analysi…
Previous studies found that melatonin modulates a combination of green-and-blue-light-induced B-lymphocyte proliferation via its membrane receptors Mel1a and Mel1c. However, in addition to its membrane-bound receptors, melatonin also functi…
Endometriosis is a benign gynecological disease. Accumulating evidence has revealed the participation of dysregulated miRNAs in the progression of endometriosis. Here, the function and molecular mechanism of miR-143-3p in endometriosis were…
BACKGROUND: Acute pancreatitis (AP) is one of the most common gastrointestinal disorders, which causes death with a high mortality rate of about 30%. The study aims to identify whether the nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD)-derived ln…
IntroductionAssisted reproductive technology (ART) and previous Cesarean section (CS) are independently associated with the risk of adverse obstetric and perinatal outcomes in general. Few studies have focused on the association between adv…
BACKGROUND: Lymphangioleiomyomatosis (LAM) is a rare low-grade metastatic tumor with an unknown origin that spreads through lymphatic vessels. It is characterized by the proliferation of smooth muscle-like or epithelioid tumor cells in the …
Aim: This study systematically reviewed the application of ICP-MS and its combined technology in the determination of mineral and heavy metal elements in medicinal materials derived from plants, animals, minerals and their preparations (Chi…
We report the quaternary structure of core transcriptional complex for the full-length human progesterone receptor-B (PR-B) homodimer with primary coactivator steroid receptor coactivator-2 (SRC-2) and the secondary coactivator p300/CREB-bi…
ETHNOPHARMACOLOGICAL RELEVANCE: Guizhi Fuling decoction (GZFL decoction) is a famous formula in the Synopsis of the Golden Chamber, which has a long history in treating endometriosis. However, its exact mechanism remains unclear. AIM OF ST…
Chronic exposure to hexavalent chromium (Cr(VI)) causes lung cancer in humans, however, the underlying mechanism has not been well understood. Long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs) and microRNAs (miRNAs) are commonly studied non-coding RNAs. miRNA…
Some of the key steps in adenomyosis (AM) are the migration and invasion of adenomyosis derived cells (AMDC); these processes require rearrangement of the cytoskeleton which Rho/ROCK signaling pathway is involved. The aim of the current stu…
This study aimed to identify differentially expressed genes (DEGs) and molecular pathways in eutopic endometrial stromal cells (EuESCs) from adenomyosis (AM) patients and to provide a new insight into the disease mechanisms. The gene expres…
