Background/Objectives: Primary dysmenorrhea is a common gynecological disorder characterized by painful uterine contractions. Danggui Buxue Decoction (DBD) is used to treat menstrual irregularities, but its mechanism in primary dysmenorrhea…

PurposeTo Explore the correlation between Continuous Renal Replacement Therapy (CRRT) and the prognostic outcomes of patients with Severe Acute Pancreatitis (SAP); to analyze the impact of CRRT initiation time on the final prognosis of SAP …

BACKGROUND: Endometrial hepatoid adenocarcinoma (HAC) is an exceedingly rare tumor. Histologically, the tumor is predominantly characterized by HAC with additional components, as documented in previous reports. The coexistence of endometria…

Ovarian cancer(OC) poses a significant clinical challenge due to its frequent peritoneal dissemination and development of chemotherapy resistance, contributing to poor patient outcomes. Chronic inflammation is a pivotal driver of disease in…

BackgroundThe etiology of interstitial cystitis/painful bladder syndrome (IC/BPS) remains elusive, presenting significant challenges in both diagnosis and treatment. To address these challenges, we employed a comprehensive approach aimed at…

ObjectiveThe impact of prophylactic salpingectomy on the prevention of epithelial ovarian cancer (EOC) remains unclear, particularly in Asian populations where data is lacking. In this systematic review and meta-analysis study, we sought to…

Study questionCan third-generation sequencing (TGS)-based polar body (PB) analysis serve as a viable alternative to conventional trophectoderm (TE) biopsy for preimplantation genetic testing for aneuploidy (PGT-A)?Summary answerThis study d…

Endometriosis, the most prevalent cause of infertility, is associated with anatomical distortion leading to adhesions and fibrosis, as well as endocrine abnormalities and immune disorders. This review discusses the mechanisms underlying end…

BackgroundCystitis glandularis is a chronic inflammatory disease of the urinary system characterized by high recurrence rates, the reasons for which are still unknown.ObjectivesThis study aims to identify potential factors contributing to r…

Heterogeneous cancer-associated fibroblasts (CAFs) play important roles in cancer progression. However, the specific biological functions and regulatory mechanisms involved in endometrial cancer have yet to be elucidated. We aimed to explor…

OBJECTIVE: This report summarizes the characteristics of a series of 8 recent (2020-2022) patients with abdominal wall endometriosis (AWE) who underwent laparoscopic surgery. The feasibility and advantages of laparoscopy in the treatment of…

BackgroundThe association of dyslipidemia with embryo development and pregnancy outcomes is largely unknown, especially in unexplained recurrent implantation failure (uRIF) patients. Here, this study aimed to explore the impact of abnormal …

BackgroundThe aim of this study was to develop a new model constructed by logistic regression for the early prediction of the severity of acute pancreatitis (AP) using magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) and the Acute Physiology and Chronic He…

BackgroundRecurrent implantation failure (RIF) is a disease associated with endometrial receptivity dysfunction. Retinoic acid receptor alpha (RARα) is an important protein in many biological processes, such as differentiation and developme…

Patients with chronic kidney disease (CKD) are at higher risk for coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19)-related morbidity and mortality. However, a significant portion of CKD patients showed hesitation toward vaccination in telephone survey o…

BackgroundFrozen-thawed embryo transfer (FET) is thought to be associated with obstetric and neonatal complications after in vitro fertilization/intracytoplasmic single sperm injection (IVF/ICSI) treatment. The study aimed to determine whet…

Increasing evidence has revealed a close relationship between non-coding RNAs and recurrent implantation failure (RIF). However, the role of circular RNAs (circRNAs) in RIF pathogenesis remains largely unknown. Microarray analyses were used…

Purpose. To determine whether the kiwi root extract inhibits the development of endometriosis in mice by suppressing inflammatory factors. Materials and Methods. The mouse model of endometriosis was induced by surgery after which the mice w…

Obesity-related non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) is connected with mitochondrial stress and hepatocyte apoptosis. Parkin-related mitophagy sustains mitochondrial homeostasis and hepatocyte viability. However, the contribution and r…

Open-angle glaucoma (OAG) is a major cause of blindness worldwide. To identify new risk loci for OAG, we performed a genome-wide association study in 3,071 OAG cases and 6,750 unscreened controls, and meta-analysed the results with GWAS dat…

Efflux and uptake transporters of drugs are key regulators of the pharmacokinetics of many antiretroviral drugs. A growing body of literature has revealed the expression and functionality of multiple transporters in female genital tract (FG…

Primary open-angle glaucoma (POAG) is a major cause of irreversible blindness worldwide. We performed a genome-wide association study in an Australian discovery cohort comprising 1,155 cases with advanced POAG and 1,992 controls. We investi…
