BACKGROUND: Sarcopenia, an age-correlated decline in skeletal muscle mass and function, has been increasingly linked to ferroptosis, which is an iron-dependent form of regulated cell death driven by lipid peroxidation. Nevertheless, the dia…

BACKGROUND: Migraine is a chronic neurological disorder characterized by severe headache, nausea, and sensitivity to light and sound, affecting approximately 1 billion people globally. Despite advances in understanding migraine pathophysiol…

PURPOSE: As microwave ablation (MWA) becomes an increasingly popular treatment for gynecological diseases, complications such as surgical site infections (SSIs) have emerged as critical concerns, particularly in high-risk patient population…

OBJECTIVE: The aim of this study was to enhance the precision of categorization of endometrial lesions in ultrasound images via a data enhancement framework based on deep learning (DL), through addressing diagnostic accuracy challenges, con…

OBJECTIVES: Thyroid dysfunction is commonly associated with the risk of infertility in both females and males. However, recent randomized controlled trials have demonstrated that thyroid function levels in females are not significantly rela…

BACKGROUND: The treatment of complex ureteral stricture has always been a hot and difficult topic in urology. The aim of our study is to investigate the feasibility and clinical efficacy of labial mucosal graft (LMG) onlay ureteroplasty wit…

INTRODUCTION: Stage IB (deep myometrial invasion) high-grade endometrioid adenocarcinoma (EA), regardless of LVSI status, is classified into high-intermediate risk groups, requiring surgical lymph node staging. Intraoperative frozen section…

Ovarian cancer (OC) is a heterogeneous malignancy with various etiology, histopathology, and biological feature. Despite accumulating understanding of OC in the post-genomic era, the preclinical knowledge still undergoes limited translation…

Endometriosis, a common disease that presents as polymorphism, invasiveness, and extensiveness, with clinical manifestations including dysmenorrhea, infertility, and menstrual abnormalities, seriously affects quality of life in women. To da…

It has been unraveled that microRNAs (miRNAs) played crucial roles in processes of human diseases, while the role of miR-494-5p in intervertebral disc degeneration (IDD) remains scarcely studied. We aimed to investigate the mechanisms of mi…

Acute pancreatitis (AP), an inflammatory disorder of the pancreas with a high hospitalization rate, frequently leads to systemic inflammatory response syndrome (SIRS) and multiple organ dysfunction syndrome (MODS). However, therapeutic targ…

Jie-Yu Pill (JYP) is a proprietary herbal medicine initially developed to treat menstrual mood disorders. This study sought to determine whether JYP could alleviate menopausal psychiatric symptoms in ovariectomized (OVX) mice, an animal mod…

BACKGROUND: Prostatodynia is the main symptom of chronic prostatitis and the main reason that patients go to the hospital for treatment. Although a variety of factors, including inflammatory immune response, nervous system sensitization, an…

Artificial intelligence (AI) has experienced rapid growth over the past few years, moving from the experimental to the implementation phase in various fields, including medicine. Advances in learning algorithms and theories, the availabilit…

Several studies have indicated that microRNAs (miRs) mediate multiple pathways associated with tumorigenesis and progression. Our preliminary study experimentally verified that miR‑146a‑5p has a role in the biological behavior of non‑small …

Chemoresistance is a major unmet clinical obstacle in ovarian cancer treatment. Epigenetics plays a pivotal role in regulating the malignant phenotype, and has the potential in developing therapeutically valuable targets that improve the di…

Circular RNAs (circRNAs) have recently been shown to exert effects on multiple pathological processes by acting as miRNA sponges. However, the roles of circRNAs in ovarian senescence are largely unknown. The objective of this study was to i…

AIMS: To investigate the roles of Lats1/p-YAP1 pathway in TBI-induced neuronal apoptosis and neurological deficits in rats. RESULTS: We found that Lats1 and YAP1 were expressed in cerebral cortex neurons of Sprague-Dawley rats, and the pho…

BACKGROUND: Most cervical cancer patients worldwide receive surgical treatments, and yet the current International Federation of Gynecology and Obstetrics (FIGO) staging system do not consider surgical-pathologic data. We propose a more com…

ETHNOPHARMACOLOGICAL RELEVANCE: Ferulic acid (FA), ligustrazine (LZ) and tetrahydropalmatine (THP) are separately isolated from Chinese Angelica, Szechwan Lovage Rhizome and Rhizoma in the Jiawei-Foshou-San formula, a popular traditional Ch…

OBJECTIVE: To explore the effect and mechanism of Jiawei Foshou San on the accretion ectopic endometrium of rats. METHOD: Endometriosis model was established by surgical implant of endometrial tissue which belongs to its body in rats. Jiaw…

OBJECTIVE: To explore the effect of Sanlengwan (SLW) on adhesion molecules expression and the accretion in ectopic endometrium of rats. METHOD: Endometriosis was established by surgical implant of endometrial tissue which belong to its bod…
