This study aimed to explore the association between leukocyte telomere length (LTL) and premature rupture of membranes (PROM). This cross-sectional study included a total of 170,841 participants from the UK Biobank. Restricted cubic spline …

Uterine adenomyosis is a widespread condition that impairs female fertility, with elevated serum levels of cancer antigen 125 (CA125) and prolactin (PRL) often observed in affected women. Mifepristone has been investigated as a potential th…

Precise staging of endometriosis remains a clinical challenge, as current diagnosis depends almost entirely on laparoscopic visualization-an invasive procedure marked by considerable inter-observer disagreement and diagnostic delays. Existi…

BACKGROUND: Candida albicans (C. albicans) is an opportunistic mycopathogen that clinically presents serious challenges due to its ability to cause diverse infections. High mortality rates and increased resistance to antifungals are what ma…

Endometriosis is a common gynecological disease associated with pelvic pain and infertility. Despite several existing theories, the etiology and molecular mechanisms of endometriosis remain to be investigated. Here we report that transcript…

BACKGROUND: Endometriosis often causes chronic pain and fertility issues, exacerbating the risk of depression and complicating conditions like rheumatoid arthritis, which further impacts quality of life. This study aimed to explore the dete…

Objective: To analysis the safety and feasibility of laparoscopic total hysterectomy in patients with obliterated rectouterine pouch. Methods: A retrospective analysis was conducted on 197 patients who underwent laparoscopic total hysterect…

Iron is an essential micronutrient element for human. It participates in energy metabolism, enzyme activation, immune system and other metabolic functions. In this review, the potential role of iron in female reproductive health were consid…

Endometriosis has been increasingly associated with the aberrant regulation of non-coding RNAs (ncRNAs), particularly long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs) and microRNAs (miRNAs). Despite the growing recognition of their biological significance, t…

Safflower (Carthamus tinctorius L.), also known as Honghua, blueflower, or prickly safflower, is a medicinal herb effective in promoting blood circulation, dredging meridians, eliminating blood stasis, and relieving pain. Safflower contains…

Objective: This study aimed to elucidate the regulatory mechanisms of the long intergenic non-protein coding RNA 02381 (LINC02381)/microRNA-let-7g-5p (let-7g-5p)/thrombospondin 1 (THBS1) signaling axis in osteosarcoma (OS). Methods: The exp…

Primary chemoresistance to platinum-based treatment is observed in approximately 33% of individuals diagnosed with ovarian cancer; however, conventional clinical markers exhibit limited predictive value for chemoresistance. This study aimed…

The existing data do not consistently support the link between elderly adults' waist circumferences and sleep disorders. This study aimed to evaluate whether waist circumference was connected with sleep disorder in the elderly. This cross-s…

Cardiovascular diseases (CVDs) remain the leading cause of death worldwide, and therefore become one of the most prominent global public health concerns. Puerarin, an isoflavone glycoside derived from Pueraria lobata (Willd.) Ohwi, has been…

BACKGROUND: Currently, the use of dienogest in clinical practice has increased significantly, and many studies have focused on its effectiveness and safety in the treatment of endometriosis and adenomyosis; however, the effects of treatment…

Endometriosis refers to as an estrogen-dependent disease. Estrogen receptor β (ERβ), the main estrogen receptor subtype which is encoded by the estrogen receptor 2 (ESR2) gene, can mediate the action of estrogen in endometriosis. Although s…

Luteolin is a kind of natural flavonoid, widely existing in a variety of plants, has been revealed to have a wide range of biological activities. In recent years, the research results of luteolin are abundant. Here we review the latest rese…

Background and aimsThe resect-and-discard strategy for colorectal polyps based on accurate optical diagnosis remains challenges. Our aim was to investigate the feasibility of hyperspectral imaging (HSI) for identifying colorectal polyp prop…

Leonurine is an alkaloid unique to the Leonurus genus, which has many biological activities, such as uterine contraction, anti-inflammation, anti-oxidation, regulation of cell apoptosis, anti-tumor, angiogenesis, anti-platelet aggregation, …

BACKGROUND Previous studies have suggested that autophagy, a cellular process regulated by ATG7, plays a critical role in ovarian physiology and pathology. In this study, our objective was to examine ATG7 levels in women with and without po…

Non-communicable diseases (NCDs), including cardiovascular diseases, cancer, metabolic diseases, and skeletal diseases, pose significant challenges to public health worldwide. The complex pathogenesis of these diseases is closely linked to …

Endometriosis is a common and frequent disease in gynecology; its etiology and pathogenesis are partially understood and still not clear. The construction of suitable animal models is beneficial for basic research related to the disease. Cu…

SummaryBiological characteristics of tumors are heterogeneous, forming spectra in terms of several factors such as age at onset, anatomic spatial localization, tumor subtyping, and the degree of tumor aggressiveness (encompassing a neoplast…

PURPOSE: Endometriosis is an estrogen-dependent inflammatory disease and one of the most common gynecological diseases in women of reproductive age. The aim of the review was to explore the relationship between the chromatin regulatory fact…
