MiR-30a-5p plays an important role in various cardiovascular diseases, but its effect in atherosclerosis has not been reported. Apolipoprotein E-deficient (Apo E-/-) mice were used to investigate the role of miR-30a-5p in atherosclerosis, a…

BackgroundEarly rescue intracytoplasmic sperm injection (ICSI) has been used in clinic as appropriate currently. While the outcomes of children born after this method were not well assessed. The purpose of this study was to evaluate the eff…

BackgroundThe serum tumor markers has been widely used in ovarian cancer diagnosis. BRCA1/2 germline mutations are the most common predisposing factors for ovarian cancer development. This study aimed to comprehensively investigate serum tu…

Background: Female overweight/obesity has been reported to be associated with compromised pregnancy outcomes in fresh embryo transfer cycles. It is unclear whether the cumulative live birth rate (CLBR) is adversely affected after all viable…

Plasma microRNAs are considered to be potential diagnostic biomarkers for endometriosis. Increasing evidence has shown that a huge amount of miRNAs are abnormally expressed in endometriosis plasma and play irreplaceable roles in diagnosis. …

The present study aimed to investigate the role and mechanisms of microRNA (miR)‑33b in endometriosis (Ems). Reverse transcription‑quantitative polymerase chain reaction (RT‑qPCR), MTT assays, flow cytometry, caspase‑3/9 activity assays and…

BackgroundExtracellular matrix (ECM) is a mediator of tumor progression. However, whether the alterations of the intraperitoneal ECM prior to tumor establishment affects the malignant progression of ovarian cancer remains elusive.MethodsApo…

Inhibin B (INHBB), a heterodimer of a common α-subunit and a βB-subunit, is a glycoprotein belonging to the transforming growth factor-β (TGF-β) family. In this study, we observed INHBB expression was reduced in nasopharyngeal carcinoma (NP…

IntroductionCancer antigen 125 (CA125) and human epididymis protein 4 (HE4) are biomarkers for ovarian cancer. Their specificity and sensitivity are often limited during pregnancy as a result of great fluctuations. The risk of ovarian malig…

ObjectiveTo evaluate the association of two common methylenetetrahydrofolate reductase (MTHFR) gene polymorphisms with recurrent miscarriage (RM) and repeated implantation failure (RIF) METHODS: The study comprised of 521 patients, with a h…

We surveyed self-reported lifetime health conditions (using National Health and Aging Trends Study questions) and related driving reduction in a large multi-site older driver cohort (n = 2990) from the AAA Longitudinal Research on Aging Dri…

BackgroundMitochondrial homeostasis has been increasingly viewed as a potential target of cancer therapy, and mitochondrial fission is a novel regulator of mitochondrial function and apoptosis. The aim of our study was to determine the deta…

ObjectiveThe present study aimed to evaluate left ventricular (LV) systolic function in patients with iron deficiency anemia (IDA) by 3 dimensional speckle-tracking echocardiography (3DSTE).MethodsParticipants were grouped by hemoglobin (Hb…

BackgroundIron-deficiency anemia (IDA) is a global health problem and a common medical condition that can be seen in everyday clinical practice. And two-dimensional speckle tracking echocardiography (2D-STE) has been reported very useful in…

We evaluated the effectiveness of Kuntai Capsule (KTC) for treating endometriosis using rat model and investigated its preliminary mechanism of action involved. SD rats were implanted with endometrial tissues and treated with KTC for three …

To comparatively analyze the human microRNA (miRNA) profiles between spontaneous decidualized menstrual endometrium and early pregnancy decidua by an in-depth sequencing of miRNAs. The specific miRNAs expressed at conception might be involv…

PurposeThe purpose of this study was to investigate the mechanisms by which miR-183 may contribute to the phenotypic alterations associated with stress-induced senescence of human trabecular meshwork (HTM) cells.MethodsChanges in gene expre…

The Fc receptor-like 3 (FCRL3) gene was reported to be linked to a variety of autoimmune diseases, including endometriosis-related infertility. However, this linkage has not been studied in Chinese population and there has been no meta-anal…

OBJECTIVE: To investigate the regulation mechanism of estrogen on the free calcium of smooth muscle cells at the endometrial-myometrial interface (EMI) in uteri with adenomyosis. METHODS: From September 2011 to November 2012, 59 uterine myo…

The incidence of acute bleeding is reported to be 13.5% in patients with acute necrotizing pancreatitis. However, of all the bleeding events, intra-abdominal bleeding was less studied in the literature and its risk factors have not been wel…

Single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) occurring in noncoding sequences have largely been ignored in genome-wide association studies (GWAS). Yet, amounting evidence suggests that many noncoding SNPs especially those that are in the vicinity…

Objective To investigate the changes of the levels of serum CA125, EMAb and sexual hormones before and after laparoscopic uterine arteries blockage in the treatment of adenomyosis. Methods The operations of laparoscopic uterine arteries blo…

ObjectiveTo evaluate spiral CT urography (SCTU) and CT virtual endoscopy (CTVE) in detecting urologic diseases.MethodsSCTU was performed in 46 patients with urological diseases including renal neoplasms (2), paropelvic cysts (2), ureteral c…
