Ovarian cancer (OC) is one of the deadliest malignant tumors affecting women worldwide. The predictive value of some blood inflammatory composite markers in OC has been extensively reported. They can be used for early detection and differen…
ABSTRACT Pancreatitis is an inflammatory disease of the pancreas that can arise due to various factors, including environmental risks such as diet, alcohol, and smoking, as well as genetic predispositions. In some cases, pancreatitis may p…
Recently, increasing numbers of studies have demonstrated that transient receptor potential ankyrin 1 (TRPA1) can be used as a potential target for the treatment of inflammatory diseases. TRPA1 is expressed in both neuronal and non-neuronal…
Objective: To investigate the familial heritability of endometriosis and to compare the clinical characteristics of patients with or without a family history of endometriosis. Methods: From January 2020 to June 2022, 850 patients with endom…
BACKGROUND: The current routine endometrial preparation protocol for women with polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) is hormone replacement treatment (HRT). Letrozole is rarely used in frozen embryo cycles. Evidence confirming whether letrozole…
INTRODUCTION: Hormone replacement treatment (HRT) is the most commonly used endometrial preparation protocol for frozen embryo transfer (FET) in patients with polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS). However, studies have found that HRT may increa…
RATIONALE AND OBJECTIVES: The purpose of this study was to explore the feasibility of magnetic resonance imaging-guided focused ultrasound surgery (MRgFUS) for the treatment of an adenomyosis model of Bama pigs and the changes in the level …
Abstract Background Deconvolution of immune microenvironment that drive transcriptional programs throughout the menstrual cycle is key to understanding regulatory biology of endometrium. Methods We comprehensively analyzed single cell trans…
Breast cancer incidence has increased and become the world's most prevalent cancer, which is related to abnormal development of mammary glands and thought to be influenced by environment endocrine disruptors such as bisphenol A (BPA). Howev…
The anatomical positions of pelvic floor organs are maintained by ligaments and muscles. Stress urinary incontinence (SUI) occurs when the pelvic floor tissues are repeatedly stimulated by excessive mechanical tension that exceeds the beari…
Background: The metabolic processes involving amino acids are intimately linked to the onset and progression of cancer. Long non-coding RNAs (LncRNAs) perform an indispensable function in the modulation of metabolic processes as well as the…
Abstract Background: Endometriosis(EM) is a major cause of infertility, but the pathogenesis and mechanisms have not been fully elucidated. MiR-19b-3p is involved in many diseases, but its functional role in EM-associated infertility has no…
BACKGROUND AND AIMS: There are limited data regarding the morphology, histopathology, and anatomical distribution of sporadic colorectal polyps in Chinese patients. We evaluated these characteristics of sporadic polyps to guide the endoscop…
Prediction of individual ovarian response to exogenous gonadotropin is a cornerstone for success and safety in all controlled ovarian stimulation (COS) protocols. Providing the best FSH starting dose according to each woman's own characteri…
OBJECTIVE: To investigate the influence of oviductal extracellular vesicles from patients with endometriosis on early embryo development. DESIGN: In vitro experimental study. SETTING: University-affiliated hospital. PATIENTS: Women with …
BACKGROUND: Premature ovarian insufficiency (POI) patients are predisposed to metabolic disturbances, including in lipid metabolism and glucose metabolism, and metabolic disorders appear to be a prerequisite of the typical long-term complic…
Abstract Background Polypoid endometriosis (PEM) is rare benign tumors with morphological features resembling malignant tumors. We aimed to analyze the clinicopathological features and outcomes of patients with PEM, and compare them to case…
OBJECTIVE: A meta-analysis was conducted to evaluate the overall pregnancy outcomes after uterus-sparing operative treatment in patients with adenomyosis (AD). DATA SOURCES: We searched PubMed, Web of Science, Cochrane Library, and Embase …
PURPOSE: The impact of body mass index (BMI) on in vitro fertilization (IVF) has been well acknowledged; however, the reported conclusions are still incongruent. This study aimed to investigate the effect of BMI on IVF embryos and fresh tra…
BACKGROUND: Whether pretreatment with gonadotropin-releasing hormone agonist (GnRHa) can improve the pregnancy outcomes in frozen-thawed embryo transfer (FET) cycles is controversial. The inconsistencies in the results of different studies …
Acute lung injury (ALI) caused by sepsis is a common respiratory critical illness with high morbidity and mortality. Protein kinase C-alpha (PRKCA) plays a protective role in sepsis-induced ALI. However, the detailed molecular mechanism of …
BACKGROUND: Along with increasing research on acupuncture for chronic pain, the validity of sham acupuncture (SA) has also been argued. METHODS: Nine databases were searched for randomized controlled trials (RCTs) from the inception dates …
BACKGROUND: Previous clinical trials regarding the therapy in epithelial ovarian tumors have involved patients with all types of ovarian tumors. Mucinous borderline tumors may progress to invasive carcinoma even after therapy and Patients w…
BACKGROUND: To explore the pathogen distribution in Chinese females with vaginitis. METHODS: This retrospective study included Chinese females with vaginitis admitted at the outpatient department of the Gynecology Clinic of the Second Affi…
STUDY QUESTION: What are the factors influencing the occurrence of monozygotic (MZ) twins in offspring conceived by assisted reproductive technology (ART)? SUMMARY ANSWER: Parental ages, the transfer of fresh versus frozen embryos, and the…
