Endometriosis is a prevalent chronic gynecological disease that poses significant challenges for treatment due to its extensive lesions, diverse morphology, unknown etiology, and tendency for recurrence. In the early 21st century, the stem …
Endometriosis is characterized by aberrant epigenetic regulation, and our study reveals that both Ubiquitin Specific Protease 7 (USP7) and DNA methyltransferase 1 (DNMT1) are significantly overexpressed in endometriosis tissues. Functional …
Abstract Endometriosis is a common yet often underdiagnosed condition, partly due to the lack of reliable diagnostics. This study examines the clinical feasibility of a blood-based, miRNA-driven test to diagnose endometriosis and address th…
The rapid accumulation of biomedical cohort data presents opportunities to explore disease mechanisms, risk factors, and prognostic markers. However, current research often has a narrow focus, limiting the exploration of risk factors and in…
BackgroundThe use of antioxidant-rich foods to treat female infertility has received significant attention in recent years. The aim of this study was to investigate the potential correlation between the composite dietary antioxidant index (…
OBJECTIVE: Abnormal expression of circular RNA (circRNA) leads to the occurrence and development of endometriosis (EM), but its underlying mechanisms are largely unknown. METHODS: Abnormally expressed circRNAs were screened in EM and norma…
BACKGROUND: Ovarian endometriotic cysts (OEC) represent the primary manifestation of endometriosis, constituting a hormonally dependent inflammatory disorder in gynecology. It significantly affects the quality of life and reproductive healt…
Abstract The early diagnosis of endometriosis is delayed and the clinical treatment is difficult, which causes severe economic burden to the patients. A comprehensive study of the cell classification and composition of endometriosis, is es…
BackgroundSimnotrelvir is an oral 3-chymotrypsin-like protease inhibitor that has been found to have in vitro activity against severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) and potential efficacy in a phase 1B trial.MethodsIn…
ObjectiveThe major challenge in routine endocervical curettage (ECC) among Human Papillomavirus (HPV) 16/18-positive patients is that only a small fraction benefit. Nevertheless, current reported models often overestimate the validity and n…
Hypertriglyceridemia is a common cause of acute pancreatitis (AP). Fatty liver, a manifestation of metabolic syndrome, is related to the severity of AP. The present study aimed to construct an accurate predictive model for severe AP (SAP) b…
Background: Chronic pelvic pain (CPP) in women is a critical challenge. Due to the complex etiology and difficulties in diagnosis, it has a greatly negative impact on women's physical and mental health and the healthcare system. At present,…

Background: Intrauterine adhesions (IUAs) are a common illness of the uterine cavity. Endometrial fibrosis is the main pathological feature. In addition to a high recurrence rate, patients with severe IUAs have a low pregnancy rate. However…
Retrospective studies have identified an increased risk of ankylosing spondylitis (AS) in endometriosis patients. The purpose of this study was to investigate the causal relationship between clinical phenotypes of endometriosis and AS using…
PURPOSE: The goal of this study was to examine the efficacy and safety of the levonorgestrel intrauterine system (LNG-IUS) versus dienogest (DNG) in female subjects with symptomatic uterine adenomyosis. METHODS: This study enrolled 117 wom…
Background and Purpose: Adenomyosis causes pain, abnormal bleeding, and infertility. Epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT) plays a critical role in the pathogenesis of adenomyosis. Current therapies are mainly hormone-dependent and their …
Disruption of iron homeostasis plays a negative role in follicle development. The dynamic changes in follicle growth are dependent on Hippo/YAP signaling and mechanical forces. However, little is known about the liaison between iron overloa…
IntroductionStage IB (deep myometrial invasion) high-grade endometrioid adenocarcinoma (EA), regardless of LVSI status, is classified into high-intermediate risk groups, requiring surgical lymph node staging. Intraoperative frozen section (…
Endometrial cancer (EC) is one of the most common gynecologic cancers and its incidence is rising globally. Although advanced EC has a poor prognosis; diagnosing EC at an earlier stage could improve long-term patient outcomes. However, ther…
Glycolysis is the preferred energy metabolism pathway in cancer cells even when the oxygen content is sufficient. Through glycolysis, cancer cells convert glucose into pyruvic acid and then lactate to rapidly produce energy and promote canc…
BackgroundGonadotropin-releasing hormone (GnRH) antagonists are a promising therapeutic approach for treating hormone-dependent prostate cancer. Currently, the mainstream GnRH antagonists are polypeptide agents administered through subcutan…
ObjectiveOur study aimed to elucidate the effect of PAI-1 (Plasminogen Activator Inhibitor-1) and t-PA (Tissue-type Plasminogen Activator) in tissue remodeling in nasal polyps patients.MethodsSamples were streamed as early Nasal Polyps (eNP…
