Protein O-GlcNAcylation is a post-translational modification coupled to cellular metabolic plasticity. Aberrant O-GlcNAcylation has been observed in many cancers including endometrial cancer (EC), a common malignancy in women. However, clin…

To investigate the relationship between hemoglobin-to-red blood cell distribution width (RDW) ratio (HRR) and the 30-day mortality risk in acute pancreatitis (AP), and assess the predictive ability of HRR. Data from 2001 to 2019 in the Medi…

Dietary factors are believed to potentially influence the risk of pancreatitis. Here, we systematically investigated the causal relationships between dietary habits and pancreatitis by using two-sample Mendelian randomization (MR). Large-sc…

BackgroundThe pathogenesis of pancreatitis involves diverse environmental risk factors, some of which have not yet been clearly elucidated. This study systematically investigated the causal effects of genetically predicted modifiable risk f…

Objective: To explore potential causal genetic variants and genes underlying the pathogenesis of uterine leiomyomas (ULs). Methods: We conducted the summary data-based Mendelian randomization (SMR) analyses and performed functional mapping …

Chronic pancreatitis (CP) is a fibroinflammatory disorder of the pancreas. Our understanding of CP pathogenesis is partly limited by the incomplete characterization of pancreatic cell types. Here, we performed single-cell RNA sequencing on …

OBJECTIVE: To evaluate the long-term improvement of clinical symptoms of adenomyosis after treatment with ultrasound-guided high intensity focused ultrasound (USgHIFU). METHODS: From January 2010 to December 2011, 350 patients with adenomyo…

Chronic kidney diseases (CKD), a common pathway of various glomerular diseases, which carries great morbidity and mortality to people. CKD is characterized by progressive kidney fibrosis and remodeling. CKD is also associated with the deple…

ObjectiveTo investigate the effects of oxytocin on high-intensity focused ultrasound (HIFU) ablation for the treatment of adenomyosis.Materials and methodsEighty-six patients with adenomyosis from three hospitals were randomly assigned to t…
