Recent advances suggest the fallopian tube as the main anatomic site for high-grade ovarian or pelvic serous carcinoma (O/PSC). Many studies on the biologic role of tubal secretory cells in O/PSC development has been performed in the last d…

Nod-like receptor (NLR) family caspase activation and recruitment domain containing 5 (NLRC5) is a newly identified sub-class of the NLR family. It regulates inflammation and has a key function in innate and adaptive immunologic reactions. …

PURPOSE: Here, we compared endometrioma recurrence rates in patients who have undergone a laparoscopic cystectomy and treated with a gonadotropin-releasing hormone agonist (GnRHa) alone or a GnRHa combined with a levonogestrel intrauterine …

BACKGROUND: The poor prognosis of patients with ovarian cancer is mainly due to cancer progression. γ-Synuclein (SNCG) has reported as a critical player in cancer metastasis. However, its biological roles and mechanism are yet incompletely …

OBJECTIVE: To develop and evaluate a T2 MR-based radiomics prediction model incorporating radiomics features and clinical parameters to predict the response to magnetic resonance-guided focused ultrasound surgery (MRgFUS) in patients with a…

Macrophages play an essential role in skeletal muscle regeneration. The phagocytosis of muscle cell debris induces a switch of pro-inflammatory macrophages into an anti-inflammatory phenotype, but the cellular receptors mediating this phago…

BACKGROUND The present study aimed to determine serum markers for cervical cancer (CC) and to provide valuable references for clinical diagnosis and treatment. MATERIAL AND METHODS Serum samples were collected from age-matched healthy contr…

BACKGROUND: Ovulatory disturbance is a key diagnostic feature of polycystic ovarian syndrome (PCOS), leading to infertility and correspondingly heavy disease burden. Many therapeutic strategies have been used to induce ovulation for women w…

Metastasis-associated gene 1 (MTA1) is correlated with prognosis of many tumors. However, little is known about the role of MAT1 in endometriosis and its relationship with the recurrence of endometriosis.The expression of MTA1 in normal, eu…

INTRODUCTION: Female sexual dysfunction (FSD) is a common disease with serious potential hazards, but it has not received much attention. The pathogenesis of FSD is urgently needed for the diagnosis and treatment of FSD. AIM: To investigat…

Bevacizumab, which is a humanized anti-VEGF antibody, has been successfully applied in clinics since 2004. Bevacizumab in combination with chemotherapy showed high safety and has been applied to solid tumors. However, studies on the insight…

OBJECTIVE: To evaluate the clinical therapeutic effects of excision of invaded sacrospinous ligament on pelvic cavity pain caused by endometriosis. METHODS: Eighty endometriotic patients treated in our hospital from January 2013 to Decembe…

Objective: To explore how to reduce the incidence of pelvic mass after hysterectomy, and to evaluate clinical characteristics and the risks. Methods: A retrospective study was carried out in 85 patients who returned for surgery due to a pel…

PURPOSE: To evaluate the feasibility, safety and technical efficacy of ultrasound-guided percutaneous microwave ablation with artificial ascites for adenomyosis. MATERIALS AND METHODS: Between May 2015 and May 2016, a total of 25 patients …

PURPOSE: Loss of a cytostatic response to TGF-β has been implicated in multiple hyper-proliferative disorders, including cancer. Although several key genes involved in the cytostatic activity of TGF-β have in the past been identified, its e…

The lack of efficient tumor progression and chemoresistance indicators leads to high mortality in epithelial ovarian cancer (EOC) patients. Dysregulated miR-520g expression is involved in these processes in hepatic and colorectal cancers. I…

Objective The aim of this study was to analyse the significant variables for vaginal discharge after ultrasound-guided percutaneous microwave ablation (PMWA) therapy. Materials and methods PMWA was performed on 117 patients with adenomyosis…

OBJECTIVE: To analyze the causes of misdiagnosis in patients with familial nasal bleeding and to improve the level of diagnosis and treatment. METHOD: The clinical characteristics of 7 families with nose blood were analyzed retrospectively…

BACKGROUND: Adenomyomectomy has recently been considered the priority option for the treatment of adenomyosis, however, the surgical efficacy and modes are still debated. We aimed to evaluate the efficacy of laparoscopic adenomyomectomy usi…

Basal-like breast cancer is a molecularly distinct subtype of breast cancer that is highly aggressive and has a poor prognosis. MicroRNA-29c (miR-29c) has been shown to be significantly down-regulated in basal-like breast tumors and to be i…

OBJECTIVE: We conducted a case-control study to evaluate the diagnostic values of computed tomography (CT) and diffusion-weighted magnetic resonance imaging (DW-MRI) in differentiating malignancies from benign ovarian tumors and a meta-anal…

A total of 142 premenopausal women with symptomatic adenomyosis underwent ultrasound (US)-guided percutaneous microwave ablation (PMWA) at the Chinese PLA General Hospital. This study aimed to evaluate changes in serum pituitary, gonadal ho…

Oviduct tubal motility is thought to be controlled by hormones and nerves and has been associated with endometriosis. However, it is still not known whether the fallopian tubes in women with endometriosis demonstrate an abnormal distributio…
