ObjectivesTo evaluate the association of GGN repeat polymorphism of androgen receptor (AR) with ovarian reserve and ovarian response in controlled ovarian stimulation (COS).MethodsThis genetic association study was conducted among a total o…

High incidence of unexplained miscarriage (UM) limits global human reproduction. Lithium (Li) batteries are widely used but rarely recycled, causing Li to spread into environments and enter human body. Notably, the healthy effects of Li exp…

BackgroundIn the past quite a long time, intraoperative cholangiography(IOC)was necessary during laparoscopic cholecystectomy (LC). Now magnetic resonance cholangiopancreatography (MRCP) is the main method for diagnosing common bile duct st…

BACKGROUND: Endometriosis (EMs) is an enigmatic disease of yet-unknown pathogenesis. Disulfidptosis, a novel identified form of programmed cell death resulting from disulfide stress, stands a chance of treating diverse ailments. However, th…

Iron is essential for the health of reproductive system, and women with iron overload suffer from ovarian dysfunction and lack effective treatment in fertility preservation. However, the underlying mechanism of the detrimental effects of ir…

Herein, A non-invasive pathomics approach was developed to reveal the methylation status in patients with cervical squamous cell carcinoma and predict clinical outcomes and treatment response. Using the MethylMix algorithm, 14 methylation-d…

PurposeTo investigate whether fatty acid changes in granulosa cells (GCs) underly the pathogenic mechanisms of diminished ovarian reserve (DOR).MethodsGCs were obtained from patients with DOR (n = 70) and normal ovarian reserve (NOR, n = 70…

INTRODUCTION: There is currently no satisfactory model for predicting malignant transformation of endometriosis. The aim of this study was to construct and evaluate a risk model incorporating noninvasive clinical parameters to predict endom…

BackgroundLeiomyoma of the uterus is relatively common, but uterine leiomyoma of the greater omentum is rare.Case summaryHere, we report the case of a 22-year-old woman who presented with a 3 mo history of progressive abdominal distension a…

Background: Abdominal aggressive fibromatosis (AF) can be confounded with abdominal wall endomentriosis (AWE) because they share considerable similarity. Because of the different patient prognoses and treatment strategies available, accurat…

To the Editor: Primary vaginal carcinoma is a rare malignant disease, which represents only approximately 1% to 2% of female genital malignancies. Vaginal adenosis is defined by the presence of metaplastic cervical or endometrial epithelium…

Objectives: To investigate the clinical characteristics, treatment and prognosis of leiomyomatosis peritonealis disseminata (LPD) following laparoscopic surgery with uncontained morcellation and to summarize clinical features of iatrogenic …

Cervical cancer is the most common gynecological cancer in women worldwide. Human papillomavirus (HPV) is required but not sufficient for developing cervical cancer. HPV E6 and E7 proteins are able to directly interact with certain nuclear …

Background: This study aimed to investigate the specific vaginal microbiome in the differential diagnosis of endometriosis/adenomyosis (EM/AM)-associated chronic pelvic pain (CPP) from other types of CPP, and to explore the role of the vagi…

Cryoablation, as a well-characterized technology, has multifarious clinical applications. But few are reported on ureteral endometriosis. Thus, we examined the feasibility and safety of cryotherapy with a novel balloon cryoprobe on ureter i…

Pelvic mass onset following a hysterectomy due to benign disease is not rarely seen. Appropriate diagnosis and treatment are of great importance.This study aims to analyze the clinicopathological features of patients who have received surge…

To analyze the clinicopathological characteristics of pelvic masses after hysterectomy for benign diseases, and to analyze the related factors of benign and malignant pelvic masses.This study retrospectively analyzed the patients undergone …

ObjectivesTo analyze the clinicopathological characteristics of subsequent pelvic masses after hysterectomy for benign diseases, and to compare the masses following hysterectomy with or without simultaneous bilateral salpingectomy.MethodsTh…

RATIONALE: The purpose of this case report was to raise awareness regarding endometriosis on the surface of the uterus mimicking malignant tumor and thus manage it accurately. PATIENT CONCERNS: A 40-year-old Asian woman with a 2-year histor…

The aberrant expression of miR107‑5p is closely related to the development of several types of human cancers. However, the role of miR‑107‑5p in endometrial carcinoma (EC) has not been fully confirmed. In the present study, we aimed to expl…

The present study aimed to investigate the clinical significance of paired-box 8 (PAX8) in primary epithelial ovarian cancer (PEOC). Using immunohistochemical (IHC) staining, the expression of PAX8 in 60 patients with PEOC, 20 patients with…

Epidemiological evidence suggests that elevated androgen levels and genetic variation related to the androgen receptor (AR) increase the risk of endometrial cancer (EC). However, the role of AR in EC is poorly understood. We report that two…

Endometriosis, with a prevalence rate ranging from 6% to 10%, is the major contributor to pelvic pain and subfertility, and considerably reduces the quality of life in affected women. However, the pathogenesis of this disease remains largel…

BACKGROUND: The aim of this study was to investigate the appropriate measures for diagnosing and treating perineal endometriosis (PEM) with anal sphincter involvement. METHODS: Between January 1992 and April 2011, the clinical features, dia…
