Current models of endometriosis (EMs) still have limitations in replicating the key pathological features of human EMs, particularly the cyclic bleeding associated with ectopic lesions. To address this gap, this study aimed to develop a pro…

In brief: Iron overload-induced ferroptosis contributes to ovarian damage in endometriosis, yet effective interventions are lacking. This study shows that electroacupuncture preserves ovarian function by activating the nuclear factor erythr…

Circadian rhythms are ~24 h endogenous rhythms driven by both central and peripheral clocks, with their core mechanism being a transcription‑translation feedback loop mediated by master clock genes. The present review outlines the organizat…

Knee osteoarthritis (KOA) is a highly prevalent chronic degenerative joint disorder characterized by progressive articular cartilage degeneration, chondrocyte death, and extracellular matrix degradation. Accumulating evidence indicates that…

In the treatment of ulcerative colitis (UC), persistent inflammatory activity increases the risk of recurrence and poor prognosis. Probe-based confocal laser endomicroscopy (pCLE) can accurately assess the UC inflammation than conventional …

Abstract Background Endometriosis (EMs) often leads to ovarian dysfunction and infertility. Its mechanism is closely associated with oxidative stress and ferroptosis induced by pelvic iron overload. Electroacupuncture (EA) has potential i…

BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES: Multimorbidity is increasingly prevalent among the middle-aged population, yet it is largely often overlooked. We aimed to explore and compare the differences in multimorbidity patterns by sex and age among middle…

BACKGROUND: Multimorbidity substantially increases health and economic burdens, and reduces productivity in working-age individuals. We conducted a study using data from 393,170 working-age inpatients (18-59 years) in Shaanxi, China, collec…

BACKGROUND: Serum tumor markers (STM), extensively used for the diagnosis, monitoring and prognostic assessment of tumors, can be increased in some non-malignant lung diseases. To date, there is a paucity of studies regarding the clinical c…

BACKGROUND: Multimorbidity is better prevented in younger ages than in older ages. This study aims to identify the differences in comorbidity patterns in middle-aged inpatients from China and the United Kingdom (UK). METHODS: We utilized 1…

Granulosa cells (GCs) are important for supporting and nourishing oocytes during follicular development and maturation. Oxidative stress (OS) injury of GCs can lead to decreased responsiveness of follicles to follicular stimulating hormone …

BackgroundGray matter volume (GMV) alteration in specific brain regions has been widely regarded as one of the most important neuroplasticity features in chronic pain patients with depressive symptoms (CP-D). However, the consistent and sig…

BACKGROUND: Mesonephric-like adenocarcinoma (MLA) is a recently characterized, rare, and aggressive neoplasm that mostly arises in the uterine corpus and ovary. MLA shows characteristic pathological features similar to mesonephric adenocarc…

STUDY OBJECTIVE: To determine the diagnostic accuracy of specialist-performed transvaginal ultrasound (TVUS) and pelvic magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) modalities in predicting depth of deep infiltrating endometriosis (DIE) of the rectosig…

Pathogenic drug-resistant bacteria represent a threat to human health, for instance, the methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA). There is an ever-growing need to develop non-antibiotic strategies to fight bacteria without trigge…

AIMS: Most therapeutic drugs of endometriosis have been contraceptives but symptoms recur in up to 75% of cases, which makes it a presses need to try to find novel and safer therapeutic drugs. Imperatorin is a furanocoumarin existing in man…
