PURPOSE: The goal is to identify risk factors associated with receiving a blood transfusion during the perioperative period in patients who undergo total laparoscopic hysterectomy (TLH) using a large-scale national database. METHODS: In th…

BACKGROUNDS: Cancer antigen 125 (CA125) is widely used for screening ovarian cancer (OC), yet its effectiveness remains debated. Potential factors may include ineffective cut-off value for CA125 in screening, as well as a lack of considerat…

OBJECTIVE: To investigate the expressions of glycolysis-related factors and changes in Notch1 signaling in endometrial tissues of adenomyosis (AM) and Ishikawa cells to explore the pathogenesis of AM. METHODS: Eutopic endometrial tissues w…

BACKGROUND: To evaluate the efficacy of modified uterine stent in the treatment of mild-to-moderate intrauterine adhesions and explore the relative indicators affecting prognosis prediction. METHODS: A total of 115 patients with mild-to-mo…

OBJECTIVE: To investigate the vaginal and gut microbes changes during the carcinogenesis of cervical and the auxiliary diagnostic value. To investigate the effect of microbiome-specific metabolites butyric on cervical cancer cells. METHODS…

Endometriosis (EMS) belongs to a gynecological disorder with inflammation and the existence of endometrial-like tissues beyond the uterus, often leading to infertility and pelvic pain. Estrogen receptor β (ERβ) is significantly expressed in…

Severe acute pancreatitis (SAP) is an inflammatory disease of the pancreas with a high mortality rate. Macrophages play a crucial role in the pathogenesis of pancreatitis. Tectoridin (Tec) is a highly active isoflavone with anti-inflammator…

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…

Epithelial ovarian cancer (EOC) is the deadliest women's cancer and has a poor prognosis. Early detection is the key for improving survival (a 5-year survival rate in stage I/II is over 70% compared to that of 25% in stage III/IV) and can b…

Endometriosis is a chronic disease associated with a disrupted oxidative balance and chronic inflammation. In this study, we investigated the role of glutathione S-transferase Mu class 4 (GSTM4) in endometriosis and determined whether 6-(7-…

PURPOSE: To analyze the clinical characteristics of abdominal pregnancy, and to explore the diagnosis and prognosis of different treatment methods. METHODS: The cases of patients with abdominal pregnancy admitted to Peking Union Medical Co…

PURPOSE: To screen Zn2+-dependent histone deacetylase (HDAC) 1-11 in endometriotic cells and then evaluated the HDACs identified from the screening in ovarian endometrioma (OE) and deep endometriotic (DE) lesions, and to evaluate the therap…

BACKGROUND: Abdominal pregnancy, a rare form of ectopic pregnancy, is associated with high morbidity and adverse consequences for future fertility. Early recognition and management reduce mortality and allow minimal invasive and conservativ…

BACKGROUND: Ovarian clear cell carcinoma (OCCC) is a challenging disease due to its intrinsic chemoresistance. Immunotherapy is an emerging treatment option but currently impeded by insufficient understanding of OCCC immunophenotypes and th…

RESEARCH QUESTION: Do sphingosine 1-phosphate (S1P) modulators have therapeutic effects on endometriosis in mice and, if they do, which receptor is responsible for these effects? DESIGN: A surgically induced endometriosis mouse model was e…

PURPOSE: The aim of this study was to evaluate the dynamic change in staining of Class I HDACs and Hdac6 in lesions harvested serially from different time points in mice with induced endometriosis. In addition, the effect of Hdac8 activatio…

This study aims to analyze the cycle characteristics, pregnancy, and neonatal outcomes in early rescue intracytoplasmic sperm injection (r-ICSI) cycles in normal and hyper-ovarian response women in their first IVF/ICSI attempts. Data from s…

PURPOSE: Ovarian clear cell carcinoma (OCCC) is a distinct and highly malignant subtype of ovarian cancer with high individual heterogeneity in survival that requires specific prognostic predictive tools. Thus, this study aimed to construct…

BACKGROUND: Primary dysmenorrhea in women is a common and serious public health problem with psychological and physical effects. Painkillers have adverse effects, such as tolerance, addiction, irritation of the digestive tract, and liver an…

N6-metyladenosine (m6A), one of the most common RNA methylation modifications in mammals, has attracted extensive attentions owing to its regulatory roles in a variety of physiological and pathological processes. As a reversible epigenetic …

This study aimed to investigate effects of pulmonary fractalkine (FKN/CX3CL1) on angiogenesis and tube formation. Tube forming capability of pulmonary vascular endothelial cells (PVECs) was evaluated. CCK-8 assay was used to evaluate prolif…

Ossification of the posterior longitudinal ligament of the spine (OPLL) is an intractable disease leading to severe neurological deficits. Its etiology and pathogenesis are primarily unknown. The relationship between OPLL and comorbidities,…

Cystic adenomyosis is a rare type of uterine adenomyosis, mainly seen in young women, which is often characterized by severe dysmenorrhea. The quality of life and reproductive function of young women could be affected by misdiagnosis and de…

Abstract This study aimed to investigate the clinical efficacy of endometrial ablation with high-intensity focused ultrasound (HIFU) for symptom relief in women with adenomyosis. Between July 2014 and July 2020, 167 patients with adenomyosi…

OBJECTIVE: To compare the clinical efficacy of High intensity-focused ultrasound(HIFU) for different types of adenomyosis classified by magnetic resonance imaging (MRI). METHODS: A total of 227 patients with adenomyosis who underwent HIFU …
