OBJECTIVE: To develop and validate a model that can preoperatively identify the ovarian clear cell carcinoma (OCCC) subtype in epithelial ovarian cancer (EOC) using CT imaging radiomics and clinical data. MATERIAL AND METHODS: We retrospec…
ARID1A, encoding a subunit of the SWI/SNF complex, is mutated in ∼50% of clear cell ovarian carcinoma (OCCC) cases. Here we show that inhibition of the mevalonate pathway synergizes with immune checkpoint blockade (ICB) by driving inflammas…
BACKGROUND: Kisspeptin is the leading upstream regulator of pulsatile and surge Gonadotrophin-Releasing Hormone secretion (GnRH) in the hypothalamus, which acts as the key governor of the hypothalamic-pituitary-ovary axis. MAIN TEXT: Exoge…
BACKGROUND: To evaluate the differences in pregnancy outcomes between assisted reproductive technology (ART) patients and natural pregnant women in Shanghai, China in the past 6 years objectively. And to assess the feasibility of the resear…
BACKGROUND: Increasing evidence has shown that necroptosis has enormous significance in the generation and deterioration of cancer, and miRNA molecular markers involved in necroptosis in low-grade gliomas (LGGs) have not been thoroughly rep…
Infants conceived with in vitro fertilization (IVF) are exposed to underlying infertility and the IVF process. High risks of adverse birth outcomes (ABOs) were observed among these infants, including preterm birth, low birth weight, macroso…
Severe acute pancreatitis (SAP) is a critical illness characterized by a severe systemic inflammatory response resulting in persistent multiple organ failure and sepsis. The intestinal microbiome is increasingly appreciated to play a crucia…
BACKGROUND: Empirical treatment was introduced when pathological or microbiological results of tuberculosis (TB) were not available. This report was designed to evaluate an algorithm based on empirical treatment in defining tuberculous pleu…
OBJECTIVE: To evaluate the diagnostic performance of magnetic resonance hysterosalpingography (MR-HSG) for fallopian tubal occlusion in the context of female infertility when compared to the diagnostic performance of hysterosalpingosonograp…
BACKGROUND: Ovarian clear cell carcinoma (OCCC) is a rare ovarian cancer histotype that tends to be resistant to standard platinum-based chemotherapeutics. We sought to better understand the role of DNA methylation in clinical and biologica…
BACKGROUND: Acute myeloid leukemia (AML) patients with normal karyotype (NK-AML) have significant variabilities in outcomes. The European Leukemia Net stratification system and some prognostic models have been used to evaluate risk stratifi…
Autophagy is an evolutionarily conserved catabolic process that can degrade cytoplasmic materials and recycle energy to maintain metabolite homeostasis in cells. Autophagy is closely related to various physiological or pathological processe…
Urogenital tract infections with Chlamydia trachomatis have frequently been detected among patients diagnosed with sexually transmitted infections, and such infections lead to inflammatory complications. Currently, no licensed chlamydial va…
BACKGROUND: Recurrent implantation failure (RIF) has been recognized to be a major obstacle to the successful application of artificial reproduction technologies. In this study, the trends in RIF research were examined through a bibliometri…
PURPOSE: To evaluate the relationship between progesterone and oocyte maturity rate via estradiol to progesterone ratio (E/P) at the time of ovulatory trigger. METHODS: This is a retrospective cohort study of first autologous IVF cycles fr…
Ferroptosis, a new type of non-apoptotic cell death modality, is different from other modes of cell death and has been primarily found in tumor cells. Previous studies have reported that ferroptosis can be triggered by specific modulators (…
Diabetic peripheral neuropathy (DPN) is one of the most common chronic complications in diabetes. Previous studies have shown that chronic neuroinflammation was associated with DPN. However, further research is needed to investigate the exa…
OBJECTIVE: To investigate whether cystectomy or ablation for endometrioma has less impact on ovarian reserve as evaluated by antral follicle count (AFC) and antimüllerian hormone (AMH) levels. DESIGN: Systematic review and meta-analysis. …
The present study investigated the expression of endometrial receptivity-related molecules in patients with polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) and different androgen status, insulin resistance (IR) levels, and body mass indexes (BMI) to ident…
LncRNAs are involved in the pathophysiologic processes of multiple diseases, but little is known about their functions in hepatic ischemia/reperfusion injury (HIRI). As a novel lncRNA, the pathogenetic significance of hepatic nuclear factor…
IMPORTANCE: Individuals conceived with assisted reproductive techniques (ARTs) could be at elevated risk of psychiatric disorders owing to potential adverse effects of the procedures themselves, or because such traits or their risk factors …
Mice with experimental nerve damage can display long‑lasting neuropathic pain behavior. We show here that 4 months and later after nerve injury, male but not female mice displayed telomere length (TL) reduction and p53‑mediated cellular sen…
OBJECTIVE: This work was designed to investigate the performance of the International Ovarian Tumor Analysis (IOTA) ADNEX (Assessment of Different NEoplasias in the adneXa) model combined with human epithelial protein 4 (HE4) for early ovar…
RATIONALE: Primary extranodal marginal zone B-cell lymphomas of the fallopian tube is extremely rare. It is a great challenge for fertility and gynecology doctors to manage such cases and also fulfil the reproductive demands of these young …
Most liver diseases, including acute liver injury, drug-induced liver injury, viral hepatitis, metabolic liver diseases, and end-stage liver diseases, are strongly linked with hormonal influences. Thus, delineating the clinical manifestatio…
