Endometriosis (EMs) occurs in approximately 50% of women with infertility. The main causes of EMs-related infertility are follicle dysplasia and reduced oocyte quality. Iron overload occurs in ovarian follicular fluid (FF) of patients with …

Abstract Background: Laparoscopic adenomyomectomy combined with intraoperative placement of levonorgestrel-releasing intrauterine device (LNG-IUS) is a novel conservative surgical procedure for adenomyosis. Our study aimed to compare the e…

AimThe aim of this study was to investigate the role and mechanism of long noncoding RNA (lncRNA) maternally expressed gene 3 (MEG3)-205 in renal inflammation and fibrosis in diabetic nephropathy (DN).Materials and methodslncRNA microarray …

BackgroundIncreasing evidence suggests a link between vitamin D and polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS). However, whether vitamin D is related to hyperandrogenemia in PCOS is still inconclusive. The aim of our study is to elucidate the relatio…

Heavy menstrual bleeding (HMB), distress in the pelvis, infertile, and stressed feelings are all indications of fibroids in the uterus, the most prevalent type of benign uterine tumor. Nearly one-third of women with fibroid in the uterus se…

ObjectiveTo examine the efficacy of gonadotropin releasing hormone (GnRH) antagonist (GnRH-ant) protocol and the long GnRH agonist (GnRH-a) protocol during in vitro fertilization (IVF) therapy in patients with severe male infertile factors.…

Objectives : A large meta-analysis indicated a more pronounced association between lower birth weight (BW) and diseases in women but less concern about the causality between BW and female-related phenotypes and diseases. Methods: Mendelian …

Outcome-dependent sampling designs such as the case-control or case-cohort design are widely used in epidemiological studies for their outstanding cost-effectiveness. In this article, we propose and develop a smoothed weighted Gehan estimat…

Endometriosis is defined as the presence of endometrial glands and stroma outside the uterus. Adolescent endometriosis is often confined to the pelvic cavity and is a common cause of secondary dysmenorrhea in adolescents. Adolescent endomet…

PROBLEM: This study aims to investigate the effects of alpha-linolenic acid (ALA) on the gut microbiota (GM) and the abdominal environment in mice with endometriosis (EMS). METHODS: The effects of faecal microbiota transplantation (FMT) fro…

CONTEXT: Human embryonic implantation is regulated by neuroendocrine hormones, ovarian steroids, growth factors, and cytokines. Sympathetic innervation of the uterus also may play a role. OBJECTIVE: We tested the hypothesis that cabergoline…

Objective: To determine the cause and high-risk factors for the development of intestinal fistulas (IFs) after ultrasound-guided microwave ablation (MA) of abdominopelvic lesions, and to identify effective prophylactic and therapeutic actio…

ObjectiveTo compare the diagnostic value of contrast-enhanced ultrasonography (CEUS) with baseline ultrasound (B-US) in ureteral neoplasms.MethodsRetrospective analysis, comprising clinical presentation, image appearances, and diagnostic re…

Background and aimWe have previously shown that fecal microbial markers might be useful for non-invasive diagnosis of colorectal cancer (CRC) and adenoma. Here, we assessed the application of microbial DNA markers, as compared with and in c…

BackgroundEnhanced recovery after surgery (ERAS) pathways have been shown to improve clinical outcomes after surgery. Considering the importance of patient experience for patients with benign surgery, this study evaluated whether improved c…

BACKGROUND: As a classic innate immunity pathway, Toll-like receptor 4 (TLR4) signaling has been intensively investigated for its function of pathogen recognition. The receptor is located not only on immune cells but also on sensory neurons…

Fine-tuning of the endometrium during the evanescent 'window of implantation' relies upon an array of diverse and redundant signaling molecules, particularly the ovarian steroids E2 and P4, but also growth factors, eicosanoids, and vitamins…

ObjectiveThere is a need for early detection of colorectal cancer (CRC) at precancerous-stage adenoma. Here, we identified novel faecal bacterial markers for diagnosing adenoma.DesignThis study included 1012 subjects (274 CRC, 353 adenoma a…

The safety and effectiveness of PMWA and USgRFA in the treatment of uterine adenomyosis were similar; however, the mean ablation time of PMWA was shorter than that of USgRFA.

PROBLEM: Endometriosis (EMS) is a chronic inflammatory disease with unclear pathogenesis. Three studies have uncovered the influence of gut microbiota on mice with EMS, but no study has investigated the characteristics of fecal metabolomics…

IntroductionPerioperative infections may be considered predictors of caesarean scar defect (CSD), and multidose antibiotics have a protective effect against CSD. However, the ability of adjunctive azithromycin combined with cephalosporin to…

ContextImplantation is a reproductive bottleneck in women, regulated by fluctuations in ovarian steroid hormone concentrations. However, other nuclear receptor ligands are modifiers of endometrial differentiation leading to successful pregn…

Transcervical resection of adhesion (TCRA) is the standard treatment for the intrauterine adhesions, but the recurrence of adhesions is a tough problem for the gynecologist. In addition, the therapeutic strategy after TCRA about prevention …

MicroRNA (miRNA) expression profiles in tubal endometriosis (EM) are still poorly understood. In this study, we analyzed the differential expression of miRNAs and the related gene networks and signaling pathways in tubal EM. Four tubal epith…

Human blastocyst nidation in the uterus and successful pregnancy require coordinated endometrial expression of estrogen receptor (ER)-α, progesterone receptors (PR)-A and -B and the gap junction protein, connexin (Cx)43. Our prior work esta…
