Metabolic profile of follicular fluid (FF) has been investigated to look for biomarkers for oocyte quality. Resolvin E1 (RvE1), a potent pro-resolving mediator, was reported to have protective action in cell function. The study aimed to exa…
Mitochondrial fission is associated with cardiomyocyte death and myocardial depression, and suppressor of ras val-2 (SRV2) is a newly discovered pro-fission protein. In this study, we examined the mechanisms of SRV2-mediated mitochondrial f…
PURPOSE: The aim of this study was to find the most useful marker of endometriosis-related infertility and evaluate predictive and diagnostic values of systemic inflammatory response markers (preoperative white blood-cell subtypes, neutroph…
Abstract Background: The cause of endometriosis, which is characterized by the existence of functional endometrial tissue outside the uterine cavity, is poorly understood. Seminal plasma (SP) is rich in multiple cytokines may promote endom…
The poor prognosis and fewer treatment option is a current clinical challenge for patients with lung adenosquamous carcinoma (ASC). The previous studies reported that tumor mutational burden (TMB, numbers of mutation per Megabase) is a pred…
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 …
Gallbladder occupying lesions are common diseases of biliary system. Among them, gallbladder cancer is difficult to diagnose due to the indistinguishable early symptoms, thus posing a great risk to the population. This study aims to establi…
Abstract Background Acute cerebral infarction with adenomyosis in a young woman has been rarely reported. Case presentation We describe a 34-year-old young woman who presented headache and fever (38°C) for 4 days and left limb weakness for …
Transvaginal sonographic elastography can be used for the differentiation of malignant and benign lesions in different systems. Recent studies on strain elastography showed that different endometrial tissues demonstrated different stiffness…
Stress is a risk factor for impaired general, mental, and reproductive health. The role of physiological and supraphysiological estradiol concentrations in stress perception and stress processing is less well understood. We, therefore, cond…
Cancer is a disease of aging fueled by the accumulation of somatic mutations. While mutations in tumors are well characterized, little is known about the early mutational processes that initiate tumorigenesis. Recent advances in next-genera…
BACKGROUND: This clinical trial aimed to compare the clinical efficacy of highly purified human menopausal gonadotropin (HP-HMG) plus recombinant human follicle-stimulating hormone (rFSH) versus rFSH alone on controlled ovarian stimulation …
Systemic sclerosis (SSc; scleroderma) is a complicated idiopathic connective tissue disease with seldom effective treatment. GUI-ZHI-FU-LING-WAN (GFW) is a classic Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) formula widely used for the treatment of …
The purpose of this experiment is to establish a rat model of thin endometrium and to explore the effect of ligustrazine on the thin endometrium of rats. The thin endometrium model was made by using infusing absolute ethyl alcohol into the …
RATIONALE: Recurrent massive hemorrhagic ascites secondary to endometriosis is extremely rare in the medical literature. PATIENT CONCERNS: We report the case of a 24-year-old nulliparous woman presenting with severe abdominal distention, m…
Growing evidence indicates that the tumor biomarker cytokeratin 19 fragment (CYFRA21-1) is significant for a variety of cancers. However, its role in epithelial ovarian cancer (EOC) has rarely been reported. In this study, a receiver operat…
This study was designed to conclude the ultrasonic characteristics of uterosacral ligament (USL) lesions involved by endometriosis and evaluated the value of transvaginal sonography (TVS) in diagnosing USL involvement in deep infiltrating e…
OBJECTIVE: To measure the expression of OATP4A1 and PGE2 in adenomyosis tissues, and to explore their roles in the incidence and development of adenomyosis-induced dysmenorrhea. METHODS: OATP4A1 mRNA and protein in the Aadenomyosis tissues…
In this study, the risk factors for ovarian endometriosis (OE) malignancy and its recurrence were explored in Chinese women. For OE malignancy occurrence, the age of marriage, abortion times, course of OE, body mass index (BMI), other benig…
BACKGROUND: Endometrial cancer is the most common gynaecological malignancy. Cytokines gene may be important in endometrial cancer development. This study sought to investigate whether the IL4, IL6 two gene genetic variants were associated …
We observed inconsistent conclusions regarding the genetic role of glutathione S-transferase gene polymorphisms, including glutathione S-transferase M1 (GSTM1), glutathione S-transferase T1 (GSTT1) present/null, and glutathione S-transferas…
BACKGROUND: Visceral hypersensitivity is considered to play a vital role in the pathogenesis of irritable bowel syndrome (IBS). Neurotrophins have drawn much attention in IBS recently. Brain-derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF) was found to m…
BACKGROUND: Recently, many studies have identified that genetic factor plays a crucial role in endometrial cancer development. The purpose of this study is to investigate the influence of single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) of IL-1R2 on …
Current screening tests for the diagnosis of ovarian cancer (OC) face enduring challenges. However, microRNAs (miRNAs) are stable in the circulation and may be promising molecular biomarkers for OC prediction. Circulating miRNA expression p…
Foshou San is a typical gynaecological formula with wild usage in traditional Chinese medicine. Jiawei Foshou San (JFS) is a novel ingredient prescription from Foshou San with antiendometriosis effect in unclear mechanisms. To uncover the p…
