An initial diagnosis of cancer is usually based on symptoms, abnormal physical examination and imaging tests. Ovarian cancer is difficult to be diagnosed timely due to the nonspecific symptoms, thus resulting in the high-risk mortality. Des…
To explore the effect and mechanism of Shenfu Injection on serum metabolomics in laparoscopic hysterectomy.1.5 mL/kg Shenfu injection was added to inject 200 mL of normal saline after the patients who entered the standard were admitted to t…
INTRODUCTION: Systemic mastocytosis is a rare disease due to mast cell accumulation in various extracutaneous sites. Systemic mastocytosis with an associated clonal hematologic non-MC lineage disease is the second most common subtype of sys…
BACKGROUND: Adenomyosis is benign gynecologic condition with complex etiologies. Common symptoms associated with adenomyosis (AM) include menorrhagia, dysmenorrhea, chronic pelvic pain, metrorrhagia, and dyspareunia. Although Chinese herbal…
OBJECTIVE: To analyze clinical studies on correlations between Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) body constitution types and diseases published in the past 10 years, and to provide an evidence base to support the use of such correlations f…
Endometriosis is widely associated with infertility in women of childbearing age, for which there have been no effective treatments. Recent studies suggest that the dysregulation of RNAs contributes to the pathogenesis of endometriosis, so …
Objective: To compare the cumulative live birth rates (cLBRs) after the first assisted reproductive technology (ART) cycle using flexible gonadotropin releasing hormone (GnRH)-antagonist protocol vs. standard long GnRH agonist protocol for …
Osteonecrosis of the femoral head (ONFH) is a pathological process that initially occurs in the weight-bearing field of the femoral head. Due to the unknown pathogenesis, this study was for the investigation of the effect of microRNA-141 (m…
BackgroundTo investigate the dynamic change of lipid profile under double filtration plasmapheresis (DFPP) in severe hypertriglyceridemia-induced acute pancreatitis (sHTGP) patients and ascertain the association between these changes and th…
BACKGROUND: Acupuncture and moxibustion have been accepted as treatment options for primary dysmenorrhea (PD). So far, several systematic reviews (SRs) and meta-analyses (MAs) have reported on the efficacy and safety of acupuncture and moxi…
BACKGROUND: This study aims to analyze the effect of the body mass index (BMI) on E2, P and LH values in females who received intrauterine insemination (IUI) treatment on human chorionic gonadotropin (HCG) day. METHODS: A total of 2319 cyc…
INTRODUCTION: In recent years, due to various factors, the rate of infertility in China has increased and now affects over 10% of women of reproductive age. Hysterosalpingography (HSG) is a common diagnostic procedure during fertility exami…
Purpose: To investigate the effect of primary varicocele and related surgery in male infertility through meta-analysis. Methods: A systematic search of the literature was conducted using the Medline, Embase, Cochrane, and CNKI databases. Th…
APLN, APELA and their common receptor APLNR (composing the apelinergic axis) have been described in various species with extensive body distribution and multiple physiological functions. Recent studies have witnessed emerging intracellular …
CONTEXT: Whether endometriosis is a progressive disease is a highly contentious issue. While progression is reported to be unlikely in asymptomatic deep endometriosis, progression in symptomatic deep endometriosis has recently been reported…
A 61-year-old Chinese man with a history of tuberculosis was found to have a large mass in the left lower lobe and multiple ground-glass nodules (GGNs) on lung computed tomography (CT). Post-operative pathology showed lung squamous carcinom…
As a transcription factor, SNAIL plays a crucial role in embryonic development and cancer progression by mediating epithelial‑mesenchymal transition (EMT); however, post‑translational modifications, such as ubiquitination, which control the…
The genetic etiology of premature ovarian insufficiency (POI) has been well established to date, however, the role of long noncoding RNAs (lncRNAs) in POI is largely unknown. In this study, we identified a down-expressed lncRNA HCP5 in gran…
Endometriosis refers to a benign chronic gynecological disorder, and is defined as the ectopic growth of endometrium in pelvic cavity. Endometriosis affects about 10% of reproductive-aged women. Unfortunately, the pathogenesis of endometrio…
Background: Acute pancreatitis (AP) is a common inflammatory disorder of the pancreas. Recent evidence has shown that metabolic syndrome is positively correlated with the severity of AP. However, only a few studies have revealed the relati…
Accumulating evidence has demonstrated that endometrial stromal cells (ESCs) are responsible for the pathogenesis of endometriosis (Ems), which is characterized by the presence of functional endometrial‑like tissues outside the uterine cavi…
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE: Macrophage infiltration and activation is a critical step during acute pancreatitis (AP). We have shown that pancreas-specific D2 receptor signalling protects against AP severity. As it is unclear to what extent myel…
Cytochrome P450 1A (CYP1A), one of the major CYP subfamily in humans, not only metabolizes xenobiotics including clinical drugs and pollutants in the environment, but also mediates the biotransformation of important endogenous substances. I…
Acute pancreatitis (AP) is characterized by disordered inflammation of the pancreas, and the underlying mechanisms remain unclear. Purinergic signaling plays crucial roles in initiating and amplifying inflammatory signals. Recent evidence r…
