BACKGROUND: tRNA-derived fragments (tRFs) have been shown to play important regulatory roles in cancer biology. However, the impact of tRFs on lung adenocarcinoma (LUAD) remains largely unexplored. METHODS: The differential expression of tR…

Clinical application of mesenchymal stem cells for endometrial repair has been hampered by variability in cell quality, large-scale production, and uncertainty regarding the optimal delivery route. In this study, we investigated the therape…

This study analyzes 324 captive giant panda breeding events (1998-2023) to unravel maternal and gestational drivers of cub survival and health-the largest dataset of its kind to date. Key variables included gestational duration, maternal ag…

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…

The most common medications for the treatment of zoonotic toxoplasmosis are pyrimethamine and sulfadiazine, which may cause serious undesirable side effects. Thus, there is an urgent need to develop novel therapeutics. Baicalein (BAI, C15H1…

PurposeStruma ovarii is a highly specialized teratoma consisting primarily of mature thyroid tissue. However, malignant struma ovarii coexisting with thyroid carcinoma, not to mention autoimmune disease, is uncommon. Malignant struma ovarii…

BackgroundThere is a higher risk of preterm delivery (PTD) in singleton live births conceived after in vitro fertilization (IVF)/intracytoplasmic sperm injection (ICSI) compared with spontaneously conceived pregnancies. The objective of our…

Background: This meta-analysis was performed using Stata (15.0), and sought to systematically evaluate the domestic application value of the gonadotropin-releasing hormone agonist (GNRH-a) after cervical cancer, and explore its protective e…

BackgroundAlbeit oxidative stress has been implied in the pathogenesis of tubal pregnancy (TP), there are scant data to suggest that ferroptosis occurs in TP. Shikonin plays a pivotal role in redox status, but whether it can regulate ferrop…

Aim: Vesicovaginal fistula (VVF) is the most common urogenital acquired fistula, and has remained a scourge and of public health importance. VVF can be repaired by transvaginal approach, transabdominal approach or transvesical approach, but…

Accumulating evidence has suggests that women with advanced endometriosis exhibit alterations in the expression of genes in the endometrium compared to healthy controls. Furthermore, replication stress is a characteristic feature of cancer …

ObjectiveTo compare signs and symptoms between patients with recurrent ectopic pregnancies (REP) and primary ectopic pregnancies (PEP) and to identify potential risk factors of REP.Materials and methodsData from 2014 to 2016 were analyzed. …

Renal cell carcinoma (RCC) is a common tumor of the urinary system. Previously, miR-191-5p has been reported to be associated with various types of cancer; however, its specific functions in RCC have not been investigated to date. In the pr…

ObjectiveSeventeen-alpha-hydroxyprogesterone caproate (17-OHPC) reduces recurrent preterm birth (PTB). We hypothesized that single nucleotide polymorphisms in the human progesterone receptor (PGR) affect response to 17-OHPC in the preventio…
