BACKGROUND: Chronic endometritis (CE), a persistent inflammatory condition of the endometrial lining, is clinically linked with adverse reproductive outcomes. It is currently hypothesized to be associated with infection, and is often treate…

BACKGROUND: The levonorgestrel intrauterine system (LNG-IUS) may have its contraceptive or therapeutic efficacy compromised if displacement or expulsion occurs. By suturing and securing the device to the uterine wall, the risk of expulsion …

BACKGROUND: Although the dietary inflammatory index (DII) plays a vital role in human health, the association between the DII and women's menopausal status is still unclear. The aim of this study was to investigate the associations of the e…

OBJECTIVE: To compare the outcomes of hysterectomy performed via traditional inpatient procedure versus day-care procedure with a focus on surgical time, post-operative recovery, costs, and patient satisfaction, using propensity score match…

Diminished ovarian reserve (DOR) poses significant challenges in reproductive health, with emerging evidence implicating DNA damage repair pathways. While GADD45A is a critical regulator of DNA repair, cell cycle and apoptosis, its role in …

BACKGROUND: Bovine endometritis is a prevalent uterine disease that directly curtails reproductive performance and indirectly reduces milk production by increasing calving intervals. Postpartum uterine bacterial infection is the primary cau…

INTRODUCTION: Endometriosis, a chronic oestrogen-dependent disorder, presents significant clinical challenges including pelvic pain, dysmenorrhoea, dyspareunia and infertility. While numerous interventions exist, evidence guiding the choice…

A thin endometrium can lead to low clinical pregnancy rates, low live birth rates, high spontaneous abortion rates, and low birth weight. However, current methods of treating thin endometria do not achieve ideal results. This study explored…

BACKGROUND: Neuraxial anesthesia is the gold standard for cesarean sections, but general anesthesia is sometimes necessary, especially in emergency cases. Anaphylactic shock due to succinylcholine, a commonly used neuromuscular blocking age…

BACKGROUND: Mammalian reproduction requires the fusion of two specialized cells: an oocyte and a sperm. In addition to producing gametes, the reproductive system also provides the environment for the appropriate development of the embryo. D…

It is very important to treat adenomyosis which may cause infertility, menorrhagia, and dysmenorrhea for women at the reproductive age. High-intensity focused ultrasound (HIFU) is effective in destroying target tumor tissues without damagin…

Colorectal cancer (CRC) is one of the most common malignant carcinomas in the world, and metastasis is the main cause of CRC-related death. However, the molecular network involved in CRC metastasis remains poorly understood. Long noncoding …

Protein expression levels of S100 calcium binding protein A6 (S100A6) are increased in various malignancies and are associated with tumor behavior; however, the association between S100A6 and endometriosis remains to be elucidated. In order…

Bone morphogenetic protein-6 (BMP-6), which is a member of the transforming growth factor-β superfamily, is associated with the regulation of bone development and various physiological processes. In the present study, the expression of BMP-…

Polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) progression involves abnormal insulin signaling. SH2 domain-containing adaptor protein (Lnk) may be an important regulator of the insulin signaling pathway. We investigated whether Lnk was involved in insuli…

OBJECTIVE: To compare the efficacy and safety of complete and incomplete excision of deep infiltrating endometriosis (DIE). METHODS: Ninety-three women who underwent complete excision (n=55) or incomplete surgery of DIE (n=38) between Janu…

AIM: S100A6 is over-expressed in several human tumors, including pancreatic carcinoma, malignant fibrous histiocytoma, breast, colon, and gastric carcinoma, but little is known about the role of S100A6 in endometriosis. The aim of the prese…
