Basal-like breast cancer is a molecularly distinct subtype of breast cancer that is highly aggressive and has a poor prognosis. MicroRNA-29c (miR-29c) has been shown to be significantly down-regulated in basal-like breast tumors and to be i…
OBJECTIVE: We conducted a case-control study to evaluate the diagnostic values of computed tomography (CT) and diffusion-weighted magnetic resonance imaging (DW-MRI) in differentiating malignancies from benign ovarian tumors and a meta-anal…
A total of 142 premenopausal women with symptomatic adenomyosis underwent ultrasound (US)-guided percutaneous microwave ablation (PMWA) at the Chinese PLA General Hospital. This study aimed to evaluate changes in serum pituitary, gonadal ho…
Oviduct tubal motility is thought to be controlled by hormones and nerves and has been associated with endometriosis. However, it is still not known whether the fallopian tubes in women with endometriosis demonstrate an abnormal distributio…
OBJECTIVE: To investigate the efficacy of nerve-sparing surgery for deeply infiltrating endometriosis (DIE) and the bladder and sexual dysfunction that follow this procedure. STUDY DESIGN: A total of 108 women with DIE underwent convention…
Polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) is a common reproductive endocrinology disease, however, an explicit etiology is not known. Insulin resistance (IR) appears to be central to the pathogenesis of PCOS and inflammation may be significant in th…
We reported a rare case of acute disseminated intravascular coagulation (DIC) after dilation and curettage in an adenomyosis and missed abortion patient. The clinical performance improved after treatment with tranexamic acid, blood transfus…
Objective To observe the therapeutic effect and mec ha nism of Huoxue Xiaozheng Capsule(Capsule for Blood-Quic kening and Concretions-Dispersing),Huayu Zhitong Capsule(Capsule for StasisTransforming and Pain-Relieving) combined with Fuqi Zh…
Genetic variants in hormone receptor genes may be crucial predisposing factors for breast cancer, and microsatellites in the estrogen receptor (ESR1, ESR2) and androgen receptor (AR) genes have been suggested to play a role. We studied 258 …
Recent studies have suggested that some ovarian and pelvic serous carcinomas could originate from the fimbriated end of the distal fallopian tube. To test this hypothesis, we immortalized a normal human fallopian tube epithelial (FTE) cell …
Objective To study the clinical value of ultrasound elastography in evaluating the ablated zone and morphology of uterine leiomyoma and adenomyosis treated with percutaneous microwave ablation treatment(PMAT) under ultrasound guidance.Metho…
BACKGROUND: Traditionally Chinese herbal medicine (CHM) has been used widely in Chinese hospitals to treat ectopic pregnancy. Many studies have been published supporting its use but the evidence has not been systematically reviewed. This is…
OBJECTIVE: To study the prognosis of fibroid after ultrasound-guidance percutaneous microwave ablation (PMAUF). METHODS: From Mar. 2007 to Jul.2010 forty uterine fibroids in forty patients with symptoms which were diagnosed in our hospital…
OBJECTIVE: To assess the feasibility of percutaneous microwave ablation in the treatment of diffuse adenomyosis. METHODS: With a mean age of 39.2 years old, 16 patients with symptomatic adenomyosis underwent percutaneous microwave ablation…
OBJECTIVE: To evaluate the quality of literatures and the accuracy of ultrasonography in diagnosis of deeply infiltrating endometriosis (DIE). METHODS: The database of Medline (1966 to 2009), the excerpta medica database (EMBASE, 1980 to 2…
OBJECTIVE: To investigate the association between distribution of protein gene product (PGP) 9.5-immunoactive nerve fibers in peritoneal endometriotic lesions and disease-associated pain symptoms. METHODS: Thirty two peritoneal endometriot…
