BACKGROUND: Pelvic floor myofascial pain is one of the pelvic floor dysfunction diseases disturbing women after delivery. There is a lack of objective standardization for the diagnosis of pelvic floor myofascial pain due to the various symp…
BACKGROUND: The application of high-intensity focused ultrasound (HIFU) in the treatment of uterine fibroids is becoming increasingly widespread, and postoperative collateral thermal damage to adjacent tissue has become a prominent subject …
P2X receptors, a subfamily of ligand-gated ion channels activated by extracellular ATP, are implicated in various physiopathological processes, including inflammation, pain perception, and immune and respiratory regulations. Structural dete…
PURPOSE: We aimed to evaluate the efficacy and safety of HiPorfin-photodynamic therapy (PDT) in women with vaginal high-grade squamous intraepithelial Lesion (HSIL). METHODS: Retrospective analysis of eighteen patients with vaginal HSIL re…
RATIONALE: Uterine abscess is a rare gynecologic entity and only a few cases have been reported so far. This study aimed to describe our clinical experience in this case. Initially, hematoma was diagnosed without detail previous medical rec…
Abstract Background Severe endometriosis significantly impacts the quality of life, particularly in women of reproductive age. Though numerous studies have conducted predictive models with preoperative clinical data for endometriosis, mos…
Somatic mutations contribute to cancer development by altering the activity of enhancers. In the study, a total of 135 mutation-driven enhancers, which displayed significant chromatin accessibility changes, were identified as candidate risk…
Abstract Objective This study aims to investigate the expression disparities of Nuclear Receptor Coactivator 4 (NCOA4) in endometriosis (EMS) patients, assessing its diagnostic potential. It also elucidate the correlation between the immu…
To evaluate whether RNA-seq-based endometrial receptivity testing (rsERT) can improve pregnancy outcomes in personalized frozen-thawed embryo transfer (pFET) during hormone replacement therapy (HRT) cycles among patients with recurrent impl…
Acute pancreatitis (AP) is an inflammatory disease of the pancreas. Despite of a steadily increasing in morbidity and mortality, there is still no effective therapy. Gut microbial dysbiosis and its derived-metabolites disorder have been sho…
Endometriosis is a disease characterized by the ectopic growth of endometrial tissue (glands and stroma) outside the confines of the uterus and often involves vital organs such as the intestines and urinary system. Endometriosis is consider…
BACKGROUND: Vaginectomy has been shown to be effective for select patients with vaginal high-grade squamous intraepithelial lesions (HSIL) and is favored by gynecologists, while there are few reports on the robotic-assisted laparoscopic vag…
ETHNOPHARMACOLOGICAL RELEVANCE: Endometriosis (EMs) is characterized by inflammatory lesions, dysmenorrhea, infertility, and chronic pelvic pain. Single-target medications often fail to provide systemic therapeutic results owing to the comp…
INTRODUCTION: The infertile patient's knowledge, attitude, and practice (KAP) toward embryo transfer may affect treatment outcomes and the mental health of women who underwent in vitro fertilization-embryo transfer (IVF-ET). This study aime…
BACKGROUND: Nephrogenic adenoma (NA) is a rare benign tumor that can develop at any site of the urinary system, with the bladder being the most common, followed by the urethra, ureters, renal pelvises, etc. Currently, it is unclear what the…
Abstract Objective Endometriosis lacks effective early intervention and treatment. Our objective is to explore potential protein drug targets in serum for endometriosis and different subtypes of endometriosis, using Mendelian randomization …
BACKGROUND: Although gut microbiota and serum metabolite composition have been observed to be altered in patients with non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD), previous observational studies have demonstrated inconsistent results. As this…
Despite decades of research, the pathogenesis of endometriosis remains unclear. Recent studies have shown that microRNAs play an important role in this condition. In this study, we found that the expression level of miR-450b-5p was increase…
BACKGROUND: Accurate preoperative diagnosis of endometrial cancer (EC) with deep myometrial invasion (DMI) is critical to deciding whether to perform lymphadenectomy. However, the presence of adenomyosis makes distinguishing DMI from superf…
BACKGROUND: Polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) affects 6-20% of women worldwide, with insulin resistance and hyperinsulinemia occurring in 50-70% of patients. Hyperinsulinemia exacerbates oxidative stress, contributing to PCOS pathogenesis. N…
BACKGROUND: Ferroptosis, a recently discovered iron-dependent cell death, is linked to various diseases but its role in endometriosis is still not fully understood. METHODS: In this study, we integrated microarray data of endometriosis fro…
INTRODUCTION: The NLRP3 inflammasome has been implicated in the initiation of inflammation and tumorigenesis; however, its role in epithelial ovarian cancer (EOC) remains unclear. METHODS: This study employed high-throughput sequencing dat…
OBJECTIVE: To investigate the value of T2-weighted imaging (T2WI) and diffusion-weighted imaging (DWI) in evaluating the therapeutic effect of high-intensity focused ultrasound (HIFU) in adenomyosis ablation. MATERIAL AND METHODS: One hund…
BACKGROUND: Robotic surgery is perceived to be more complex in obese patients. Objective performance indicators, machine learning-enabled metrics, can provide objective data regarding surgeon movements and robotic arm kinematics. In this fe…
