Ovarian clear cell carcinoma (OCCC) is aggressive and drug-resistant. The prevalence of homologous recombination repair (HRR) gene mutations and homologous recombination deficiency (HRD) remains largely unknown. It is also not clear whether…

BACKGROUND: The objective of this study was to compare the analgesic potency of oxycodone versus morphine after laparoscopic deep infiltrating endometriosis resection. METHODS: Fifty patients undergoing laparoscopic deep infiltrating endom…

Minimal deviation adenocarcinoma (MDA) of uterine cervix is a rare malignant disease with rather poorer prognosis partially due to the early misdiagnosis. Hence, better understanding of early-stage symptoms is critical. We report a case of …

BACKGROUND: Previous studies have focused on pregnancy outcomes after frozen embryo transfer (FET) performed using different endometrial preparation protocols. Few studies have evaluated the effect of endometrial preparation on pregnancy-re…

BACKGROUND: Pulmonary tuberculosis (PTB) remains the world's deadliest infectious killer. Serum CA-125 test are useful in the diagnosis of PTB. Although studies on the relation between CA-125 and PTB have been reported, the specificity and …

OBJECTIVE: We aimed to evaluate whether the systemic inflammatory response index (SIRI) and platelet lymphocyte ratio (PLR) are associated with ovarian malignancy and their diagnostic value. Design: This retrospective study compared SIRI, P…

PURPOSE: This study assessed the prognostic value of red blood cell distribution width (RDW) and cancer antigen 125 (CA125) in predicting the prognosis of endometrial cancer (EC) patients. PATIENTS AND METHODS: In this study, we included 5…

Background: The main purpose of this study is to analyze the possible factors that were related with high useful blastocyst formatio rate in normal patients. Methods: This was a retrospective cohort study included 706 normal patients(exclu…

PURPOSE: To establish a mathematical model for assessing the true ovarian reserve based on the predicted probability of poor ovarian response (POR). METHODS: In this retrospective cohort study, a total of 1523 GnRH-antagonist cycles in 201…

High-altitude adaptation of Tibetans represents a remarkable case of natural selection during recent human evolution. Previous genome-wide scans found many non-coding variants under selection, suggesting a pressing need to understand the fu…

BACKGROUND: Poor ovarian response (POR), a manifestation of low ovarian reserve and ovarian aging, leads to a significant reduction in the pregnancy rate after in vitro fertilization-embryo transfer. Acupuncture has increasingly been used t…

OBJECTIVE: To investigate the effect of herb-partitioned moxibustion (HPM) on pain and quality of life in women with endometriosis. METHODS: Thirty-six patients will be randomly assigned to a treatment group or a wait-list control group. T…

BACKGROUND: This study aims to explore the effect of melatonin for the management of endometriosis. METHODS: We will search electronic databases (Cochrane Library, MEDLINE, EMBASE, CINAHL, Web of Science, Scopus, Allied and Complementary M…

Aims: Protein tyrosine phosphatase Src-homology-2-domain-containing phosphatase 2 (SHP2) and adaptor protein Grb2-associated binding protein 2 (GAB2) can bind to each other in various signal transduction. However, the expression of SHP2 and…

PURPOSE: To explore the exact mechanism through which emodin down-regulates the migration and invasion abilities of endometrial stromal cells. Moreover, to explore the theoretical basis of emodin in the treatment of endometriosis. PATIENTS…

OBJECTIVE: To evaluate fertility intensions among couples in Shanghai under the novel coronavirus infection (COVID-19) pandemic against the backdrop of persistently low fertility. METHODS: A cross-sectional study was carried out using data…

Guizhi Fuling capsule (GZFLc) is a modern preparation from traditional Chinese Medicine. Guizhi Fuling was first prescribed by Zhang Zhongjing almost two thousand years ago for the treatment of primary dysmenorrhea. It has also been used to…

Many gene products exhibit great structural heterogeneity because of an array of modifications. These modifications are not directly encoded in the genomic template but often affect the functionality of proteins. Protein glycosylation plays…

PURPOSE: To investigate whether there are left-right asymmetries in tubal endometriosis and the factors affecting this predisposition. METHODS: Women who underwent salpingectomy for gynecological diseases and were diagnosed with tubal endo…

OBJECTIVE: To compare the effects of letrozole and human menopausal gonadotropin (HMG) in the treatment of patients with polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) resistant to clomiphene citrate (CC). METHODS: A total of 96 clomiphene resistance po…

This study aims to evaluate the effect of blastocyst- and cleavage-stage embryo transfers with different numbers of transferred embryos on pregnancy outcomes in China. This was a retrospective cohort study that collected 24,422 frozen-thawe…

BACKGROUND: To investigate the association between serum carbohydrate antigen 125 (CA125) and the presence as well as severity of diabetes retinopathy (DR) in Chinese adult patients with type 2 diabetes. METHODS: A hospital-based cross-sec…

Sperm preparation in IVF cycles using density gradient centrifugation (DGC) in combination with swim-up (SU) has been widely adopted in reproductive centres worldwide. It is a fact that the sperm recovery rate following one DGC from poor se…
