Endometrial cysts of the ovary (EMC) may develop into endometriosis (EM)‑associated ovarian cancer over time (EAOC), but the pathogenesis of this disease has not been determined. In the present study, RNA sequencing was used to identify a f…

Pattern recognition receptors (PRRs) are sensors in the immune system, detecting pathogen-associated molecular patterns (PAMPs) and damage-associated molecular patterns (DAMPs). They serve as essential links between the innate and adaptive …

OBJECTIVE: The present study was designed to comprehensively analyze the expression profiles of peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor-γ coactivator-1α (PGC-1α), estrogen-related receptor-α (ERRα), estrogen receptor-β (ERβ), interleukin…

Previous research has indicated that Polyphyllin I (PPI) possesses potent anticancer properties. However, its impact on endometriosis remains unexplored. This study aims to investigate the inhibitory effects of PPI on ectopic endometrial st…

OBJECTIVE: Endometriosis (EMs) is a chronic inflammatory disease characterized by the presence of endometrial tissue in the non-uterine cavity, resulting in dysmenorrhea, pelvic pain, and infertility. Epidemiologic data have suggested the c…

BACKGROUND: Cesarean scar pregnancy (CSP) is a high-risk ectopic pregnancy, and the influence of surgical treatments on subsequent fertility and pregnancy outcomes remains poorly understood. This study aimed to investigate the impact of dif…

This research aimed to determine the predictive value of a combined diagnosis of serum platelet endothelial cell adhesion molecule-1 (PECAM-1) and placental growth factor (PLGF) levels, gut microbiota count, and uterine artery Doppler ultra…

Acute pancreatitis (AP) is a severe inflammatory disorder of the pancreas, characterized by high morbidity and mortality rates. Despite significant advancements in understanding the pathophysiological mechanisms of AP, current treatment opt…

The use of electronic health records (EHR) for chronic pain phenotyping has gained significant attention in recent years, with various algorithms being developed to enhance accuracy. Structured data fields (e.g., pain intensity, treatment m…

Steroid-induced osteonecrosis of the femoral head (SIONFH) is a debilitating orthopedic condition. This study investigated the mechanism of Tanshinone I (TsI) in SIONFH modulating apoptosis in SIONFH via the PI3K/AKT/mTOR pathway. A SIONFH …

Both T cell-mediated rejection (TCMR) and BK polyomavirus-associated nephropathy (BKPyVAN) pose significant obstacles to successful kidney transplantation, emphasizing the importance of their accurate diagnosis for prompt medical interventi…

PURPOSE: Endometriosis is characterized by the ectopic growth of endometrial-like tissue outside the uterus and altered energy metabolism, but the specific mechanisms involved remain unclear. This study aimed to investigate the impact of Si…

Lactylation, a lactate-derived post-translational modification, emerges as a master metabolic regulator of resistance to regulated cell death (RCD) across pathologies including cancer, inflammatory disorders, and degenerative diseases. By d…

BACKGROUND: Endometriosis-associated ovarian cancer (EAOC) mainly includes endometrioid ovarian cancer (ENOC) and clear cell ovarian cancer (CCOC). The Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA) revealed four molecular subtypes of endometrial cancer (EC) i…

Endometriosis affects nearly 10 % of reproductive-age women and is characterized by the growth of endometrial-like tissues outside the uterus. This disease poses significant diagnostic and therapeutic challenges due to its unknown origins a…

Endometriosis affects nearly 10% of reproductive-age women and is characterized by the growth of endometrial-like tissues outside the uterus. This disease poses significant diagnostic and therapeutic challenges due to its unknown origins an…

Evidence suggest that dietary advanced glycation end products (AGEs) might exert harmful effects on female reproductive function. However, population-based studies exploring the associations between dietary AGEs intake and female infertilit…

PURPOSE: To assess the effectiveness of personalized embryo transfer (pET) in enhancing intrauterine pregnancy rates in women with polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) without recurrent implantation failure (RIF). METHODS: This single-center, …

This study investigated the prognostic impact of lymph node dissection (LND) in patients with stage I ovarian endometrioid carcinoma (OEC) and aimed to identify the optimal LND range for improved survival. By analyzing data from the Surveil…

This study aimed to investigate the association between insulin resistance (IR) and recurrent pregnancy loss (RPL) in patients undergoing assisted reproductive technology (ART). A retrospective analysis compared glucose and insulin indices …

Ovarian cancer (OC) remains the most lethal gynecological malignancy, primarily due to its late-stage diagnosis, frequent recurrence, and resistance to conventional chemotherapy. A critical factor contributing to OC's aggressiveness is the …

OBJECTIVE: This meta-analysis aimed to assess the diagnostic efficacy of transvaginal ultrasound (TVS) and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) for the detection of rectosigmoid deep infiltrating endometriosis (DIE). METHODS: A thorough system…

PURPOSE: Previous studies have reported a link between UDP-glucose ceramide glucosyltransferase (UGCG), immune regulation, and endometriosis (EM). We hypothesized that UGCG inhibitors might exert therapeutic effects on EM. Therefore, in thi…

Despite intensive development, P2X7 modulators have struggled in translation due to human genetic variability and species-dependent drug responses. Here, we identify PSFL1191, a portal-of-central-pocket (PCP)-site inhibitor selective for hu…
