BackgroundOsteoporosis is a systemic skeletal disorder characterized by reduced bone mass and microarchitectural deterioration of bone tissue. Our previous investigation provided preliminary evidence that single nucleotide polymorphisms (SN…
BackgroundAMH is a dependable indicator of ovarian reserve function and assessment of ovarian responsiveness. The relationship between reduced ovarian reserve and pregnancy loss remains poorly understood and requires further investigation. …
In sheep production, due to the limitations of breeding conditions, the uteri of ewes are often infected with bacteria, resulting in the failure of embryo implantation or loss, causing huge losses to the sheep industry. Therefore, in this s…
BACKGROUND: Endometriosis (EMs) is a persistent inflammatory condition whose three main symptoms, mass, pain, and infertility, severely affect female patients of childbearing age. Hu-Po-San (HPS), a preparation consisting of various herbal …
ObjectiveRecurrent spontaneous abortion (RSA) is a major pregnancy complication with unclear pathogenesis. This study aims to investigate the role of miR-20b-5p and its downstream target HIF-1α in trophoblast function and RSA pathogenesis.M…
Patients with systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) often have decreased fertility. Gene translation is crucial to oocyte meiosis and development. However, it remains unclear how SLE affects this process. Here, we used single-cell transcriptom…
BACKGROUND: Relugolix offers a promising alternative for endometriosis-associated pain, yet its comprehensive impact on health-related quality of life (HRQoL), particularly as measured by the disease-specific EHP-30 questionnaire, remains u…
Description Following a complaint and technical (editorial) investigation, the authors were requested to provide essential documentation to verify the reliability, validity, and ethical compliance of the study published. Despite repeated re…
Uterine fibroids are a common benign gynecological condition, and laparoscopic total hysterectomy (LTH) remains a well-established treatment option. For patients with severe anemia or limited tolerance for prolonged anesthesia, reducing ope…
BackgroundGynecological diseases significantly impact the reproductive health in women of childbearing age (WCBA). However, there is currently a lack of analysis on the specific burden and forecast of common gynecological diseases for this …
Endometriosis (EMs) is a gynecological disorder characterized by chronic inflammation and an aberrant immune microenvironment. In this study, we integrated the GSE6364 dataset from the GEO database to identify differentially expressed genes…
BackgroundPanax ginseng Meyer is a well-known herb in traditional Chinese medicine, with ginsenosides being its primary bioactive components. Among these, 20(S)-protopanaxadiol (20(S)-PPD) has demonstrated anti-tumor effects in various canc…
ObjectiveOral squamous cell carcinoma remains difficult to treat because of its marked tumor heterogeneity, highlighting the need to identify molecular subtypes with distinct therapeutic vulnerabilities. This study aimed to comprehensively …
This study introduces a novel "tunnel method" for single-position laparoscopic nephroureterectomy in women with upper urinary tract urothelial carcinoma (UTUC), enabling complete resection of the kidney and entire ureter while preserving th…
Virulence factor genes (VFGs) play pivotal roles in bacterial infections and have been identified within the human gut microbiota. However, their involvement in chronic diseases remains poorly understood. Here, we establish an expanded VFG …
The effects of severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) infection persist months and years after recovery. We conducted an online survey to assess the health condition of convalescents approximately 5 months following th…
BACKGROUND: Caffeine has been suggested to have a relationship with endometriosis as a widely consumed psychoactive substance, although findings are inconsistent. OBJECTIVE: This study explored the potential associations and threshold effe…
INTRODUCTION: A potential association between periodontitis and endometriosis has been indicated in previous observational studies. Nevertheless, the causal link between these two disorders has not been clarified. METHODS: Based on publicl…
BackgroundIn the past quite a long time, intraoperative cholangiography(IOC)was necessary during laparoscopic cholecystectomy (LC). Now magnetic resonance cholangiopancreatography (MRCP) is the main method for diagnosing common bile duct st…
PROBLEM: Adenomyosis (AM) is associated with immune response and inflammation. However, the role of T cell subsets in AM development has not been thoroughly understood. METHOD OF STUDY: Patients with focal or diffuse AM were recruited. Ser…
Abstract Background: Endometriosis (EMS) and chronic endometritis (CE) often coexist. Laparoscopic and hysteroscopic surgery surgery is one of the main methods for diagnosing and treating these conditions. The objectives of this study were …
Epigenetic reprogramming plays a critical role in cancer progression of cancer, and N6-methyladenosine (m6A) is the most common RNA modification in eukaryotes. The purpose of this study was to explore the related modification mode of m6A re…
BACKGROUND: Endometriosis (EMS) and chronic endometritis (CE) frequently coexist. This study aimed to examine the impact of CE on reproductive outcomes in patients with EMS. METHODS: We enrolled 685 patients with endometriosis-associated i…
The intestinal microbiota is vast in type and quantity and it plays a critical role in regulating various physiological functions in the host, including intestinal function, immune response and energy metabolism. Existing research shows tha…
BACKGROUND: Nuclear receptor subfamily 4 group A member 3 (NR4A3) is lowly expressed in ectopic endometrium and can be degraded by ubiquitination in vascular endothelial cells. Murine double minute 2 (MDM2) is predicted to be the ubiquitin …
