BackgroundTo evaluate the diagnostic performance of matrix-assisted laser desorption/ionization time-of-flight mass spectrometry (MALDI-TOF-MS) for ovarian cancer.Patients and methodsA thorough research was conducted in PubMed, Web of Scien…

Abstract Abstract: Context: Graves’ orbitopathy (GO) presents with infiltrative exophthalmos due to excessive proliferation, adipogenesis and glycosaminoglycans production of orbital fibroblasts (OFs). There are few therapies potent for pro…

Some fertility patients with polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) undergoing controlled ovarian hyperstimulation (COH) experience ceased follicular growth during COH and fail to superovulate. In this article, 24 such PCOS patients resumed COH 1…

Aim of the present work was to investigate the clinical efficacy of Kuntai capsule in the treatment of postmenopausal women with endometriosis, Breast pain and Vaginal Bleeding. 120 elderly female outpatients over 50 years old with Breast p…

BACKGROUND Patients with endometriosis (EMs) are routinely advised to take GnRH-a for 3-6 months to improve the internal reproductive environment, but this may not be necessary. MATERIAL AND METHODS This retrospective study examined the eff…

BackgroundOvarian hyperstimulation syndrome (OHSS) is a common and severe complication for patients undergoing IVF/ICSI-ET. Melatonin widely participates in the regulation of female reproductive endocrine activity. However, whether melatoni…

BackgroundThe highly conservative miR-15/107 family (also named as miR-15/107 gene group) including ten miRNA members is currently recognized strongly implicated in multiple human disorders. Some studies focus on the entire family rather th…

Steroidogenic acute regulatory protein (StAR) mediates the rate-limiting step in ovarian steroidogenesis and progesterone (P4) synthesis. Melatonin and its receptors are expressed in human granulosa cells, and have been shown to influence b…

Thymic stromal lymphopoietin (TSLP) is an IL-7-like cytokine that has been reported to be associated with several malignant tumors. The present study aimed to evaluate its role in epithelial ovarian carcinoma (EOC). The mRNA levels of TSLP …

Genome-wide association studies (GWASs) have reproducibly associated variants within intergenic regions of 1p36.12 locus with osteoporosis, but the functional roles underlying these noncoding variants are unknown. Through an integrative fun…

AIM OF THE STUDY: Sequential window acquisition of all theoretical fragment-ion spectra (SWATHTM), a powerful high-resolution mass spectrometric data independent acquisition technique, was used to identify differences that relate certain me…

PURPOSE: We aimed to identify predisposing factors that could help predict the therapeutic response of adenomyosis after uterine artery embolization (UAE). METHODS: This was a retrospective, single-center study of patients admitted to the …

Qu-Yu-Jie-Du decoction (QYJD) is a commercially available traditional Chinese medicine (TCM). It is an aqueous extract of a Chinese herbal formula primarily consisting of eight TCM herbs: Taraxacum campylodes G.E. Haglund, Coix lacryma-jobi…

ObjectiveWe reveal the relationship between progesterone level in follicular fluid and oocyte quality based on sequential window acquisition of all theoretical fragment-ion spectra (SWATH™), a powerful high-resolution mass spectrometric dat…

Increased endometrial stromal cell (ESC) survival and migration is responsible for the development and progression of endometriosis. However, little is known about the mechanisms underlying ESC survival and migration, and limited therapeuti…

Gastrointestinal (GI) epithelial ion transport is physiologically important in many aspects of humans, such as in maintaining fluid balance of whole body, and also plays a role in the development and progression of common GI disease. Estrog…

OBJECTIVES: This study was to investigate the clinical efficacy of a gonadotrophin-releasing hormone agonist (GnRH-a) combined with high-intensity focused ultrasound (HIFU) ablation treatment for adenomyosis. DESIGN: A non-randomized prospe…

BackgroundThe age of onset of endometrial carcinoma has been decreasing in recent years. In endometrial carcinoma, it is important to accurately assess invasion depth and preoperative staging. Fusion of T2-weighted magnetic resonance imagin…

Considering the biological roles of WNT4 and WNT5A involved in adipogenesis, we aimed to investigate whether SNPs in WNT4 and WNT5A contribute to obesity related traits in Han Chinese population. Targeted genomic sequence for WNT4 and WNT5A…

BackgroundThe red cell distribution width (RDW) has attracted attention in the diagnosis of malignant tumors. In this study, we analyzed the correlation between the RDW and ovarian cancer by observing changes in the RDW in patients with ova…

Purpose To investigate the feasibility of three‐dimensional MR neurography (3D MRN) for the sacral plexus using sampling perfection with application‐optimized contrasts using different flip angle evolution (SPACE) sequences, and to demonstr…

PurposeWe previously identified the R-enantiomer of ketorolac as an inhibitor of the Rho-family GTPases Rac1 and Cdc42. Rac1 and Cdc42 regulate cancer-relevant functions, including cytoskeleton remodeling necessary for tumor cell adhesion a…

Bisphenol A, benzophenone-type UV filters, and phthalates are chemicals in high production and use including in a range of personal care products. Exposure of humans to these chemicals has been shown to affect endocrine function. Although s…

ObjectiveTo investigate the clinical efficacy of laparoscopic repair of iatrogenic vesicovaginal fistulas (VVF) and rectovaginal fistulas.MethodsSeventeen female patients with iatrogenic fistulas (11 cases of VVF and 6 cases of high rectova…

BACKGROUND/AIMS: Adenomyosis is a disease in which ectopic endometrial glands and stromal cells appear in the uterine myometrium. Despite its prevalence, the molecular mechanisms involved in the development of adenomyosis are largely unknow…
