BackgroundHepatitis B virus (HBV) infection can exacerbate liver disease progression through multiple mechanisms, eventually leading to hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). HBV-encoded oncogene X protein (HBx), a key regulatory protein of HBV in…
BackgroundThis study investigates the potential impact of high progesterone (P) level on the day following human chorionic gonadotropin (HCG) injection on the clinical pregnancy outcomes of in vitro fertilization-embryo transfer (IVF-ET).Me…
BackgroundIn-depth understanding of dynamic expression profiles of human granulosa cells (GCs) during follicular development will contribute to the diagnostic and targeted interventions for female infertility. However, genome-scale analysis…
OBJECTIVES: The aim of the study was to identify an optimal magnetic resonance imaging (MRI)-based classification for the severity of adenomyosis and explore the factors associated with disease severity (dysmenorrhea or menorrhagia). DESIG…
Salmonella typhimurium (S. typhimurium) is one of the most common Salmonella serotypes in epidemiological surveys of poultry farms in recent years. It causes growth retardation, mortality, and significant economic losses. The extensive use …
Accumulating researches have reported that miR-17-92 cluster expression has strong association with tumorigenesis. In this study, we investigated the effects of 2 genetic polymorphisms in the promoter region of the miR-17-92 cluster and the…
Primary uterine non-Hodgkin lymphoma (NHL) is rarely reported, as its incidence is extremely low. We describe a 72 year old patient with primary uterine non-Hodgkin's lymphoma stage IV, diffuse B-cell large cells, who responded well to cyto…
Long non-coding RNAs play critical roles in the development of lung cancer by functioning as tumor suppressors or oncogenes. Changes in the expression of LINC01279 have been associated with cell differentiation and human diseases. However, …
Exosomes are a subtype of extracellular vesicles composed of bioactive molecules, including nucleic acids, proteins, and lipids. Exosomes are generated by the fusion of intracellular multivesicular bodies (MVBs) with the cell membrane and s…
ObjectiveThis study was conducted to determine the influence of the number of CD138+ cells in the proliferative endometrium on pregnancy outcomes.MethodsThis retrospective cohort study was conducted from January to August 2018. A total of 6…
IntroductionMenstrual blood-derived stem cells (MenSCs) are vital in treating many degenerative and traumatic disorders. However, the underlying molecular mechanisms remain obscure in MenSCs-treating spinal cord injury (SCI) rats.MethodsMen…
Importance: Chronic pelvic pain (CPP) is the main sequela of pelvic inflammatory disease (PID), with no established treatment. ZY5301 tablets, an effective part preparation extracted from Ajuga decumbens Thunb. (jingucao), are being tested …
With the development and progress of society, people's average life expectancy has increased, and relevant literature reports that the number of postmenopausal women in China continues to increase. With lifespans extended, the transition pe…
BackgroundOvarian clear cell carcinoma (OCCC) is a challenging disease due to its intrinsic chemoresistance. Immunotherapy is an emerging treatment option but currently impeded by insufficient understanding of OCCC immunophenotypes and thei…
This study explored the application of transperineal ultrasound (TPUS) combined with shear wave elastography (SWE) in evaluating the pelvic structure function of women after total hysterectomy. Seventy healthy women and 76 women who underwe…
BackgroundEmbryo implantation in a receptive endometrium is crucial for successful pregnancy. Endometrial receptivity (ER) prediction tools based on endometrial transcriptome biomarkers by endometrial biopsy have been used to guide successf…
BackgroundThe aim of this study is to investigate the genetic and epigenetic mechanisms involved in the pathogenesis of age-related cataract (ARC).MethodsWe obtained the transcriptome datafile of th ree ARC samples and three healthy, age-ma…
BackgroundNeuroimaging studies have identified altered brain structures and functions in women with primary dysmenorrhea (PDM). However, previous studies focused on either structural or functional changes in specific brain regions rather th…
Follicular atresia occurs in every stage of ovarian development, which is relevant to female fertility. In the past decade, increasing studies have confirmed that miRNAs, a class of short non-coding RNAs, play an important role in follicula…
BackgroundCircular RNAs (circRNAs) have been reported to play vital roles in the progression of diverse human cancers, including non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). The purpose of this study was to explore the exact role and underlying mech…
Study questionWhat are the dynamic expression features of plasma microRNAs (miRNAs) during the peri-implantation period in women with successful pregnancy via single frozen-thawed blastocyst transfer?Summary answerThere is a significant cha…
ObjectiveTo investigate the effects of focused ultrasound ablation (FUSA) versus conventional myomectomy on pelvic adhesions and fertility in the treatment of uterine fibroids.MethodsThe clinical data of 114 patients with uterine fibroids a…
Owing to its difficulty in degrading and ease of accumulation in the body, perfluorooctanoic acid (PFOA) has a detrimental effect on reproduction. This study aimed to examine the effect of PFOA concentration in follicular fluid during ovula…
Excessive uric acid levels may affect several organs and systems in the body. There is limited evidence of the effects of high serum uric acid levels on the female reproductive system. This study used the National Health and Nutrition Exami…
