BACKGROUND: GAS5 contains a hormone response element that can induce cell apoptosis in breast cancer. It is known that cell apoptosis and hormone response play crucial roles in polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS), indicating the potential invo…

RESEARCH QUESTION: The expression of the long noncoding RNA (lncRNA) urothelial carcinoma-associated 1 (UCA1) in embryonic tissues is higher than that in most cancer tissues, such as bladder cancer, indicating that RNA is a carcinoembryonic…

The anatomical positions of pelvic floor organs are maintained mainly by ligaments and muscles. Long-term excessive mechanical tension stimulation of pelvic floor tissue beyond the endurance of ligaments or muscles will lead to the occurren…

Ovarian hyperstimulation syndrome (OHSS) is one of the most life-threatening and potentially fatal complications associated with controlled ovarian hyperstimulation (COH) during in vitro fertilization (IVF) treatment. Although the pathogene…

The aim of the present study was to investigate the role of microRNA‑15a‑5p (miR‑15a‑5p) in pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH) and elucidate the underlying pro‑apoptotic mechanism. Reverse transcription‑quantitative PCR analysis and gene…

Reactive oxygen species, particularly hydrogen peroxide (H2O2), can induce proliferation inhibition and death of A549 cells via oxidative stress. Oxidative stress has effect on DNA methylation. Oxidative stress and DNA methylation feature a…

ObjectiveTo evaluate the efficacy and safety of multiple- versus single-dose gonadotropin-releasing hormone agonist (GnRH-a) addition to luteal phase support (LPS), in patients with a first in vitro fertilization (IVF) failure associated wi…

AimThis study is aimed at investigating predictive and prognostic factors of synchronous colorectal lung-limited metastasis (SCLLM) based on The Surveillance, Epidemiology, and End Results (SEER) database.MethodsA multivariate logistic regr…

INTRODUCTION: Acupuncture and moxibustion has become a commonly used adjuvant treatment method to improve the success rate of in vitro fertilization-embryo transfer (IVF-ET). However, There is still insufficient evidence that acupuncture tr…

Abstract Abstract: Context: Graves’ orbitopathy (GO) presents with infiltrative exophthalmos due to excessive proliferation, adipogenesis and glycosaminoglycans production of orbital fibroblasts (OFs). There are few therapies potent for pro…

The present study aims to investigate the effects and mechanisms of sarsasapogenin resistance to precocious puberty. Female Sprague Dawley rats were divided into a normal (N) group, model (M) group, leuprolide (L) group, and sarsasapogenin …

Ovarian hyperstimulation syndrome (OHSS) is one of the most serious and iatrogenic complications that can occur during in vitro fertilization treatment. Although the pathogenesis of OHSS is not fully understood, vascular endothelial growth …

Exosomes are nanoscale extracellular vesicles released by nearly all cell types. Exosomes were originally considered as waste receptacles for discarding unwanted cellular products; however, these organelles are now considered to be importan…

BACKGROUND: Tubal choriocarcinoma is an extremely rare but highly malignant trophoblastic tumor, which may be either gestational or non-gestational in origin. Due to atypical clinical manifestations and symptoms similar to ectopic pregnancy…

AIM: This study aims to assess the use of contrast-enhanced ultrasonography (CEUS) and dynamic contrast-enhanced magnetic resonance imaging (DCE-MRI) in the evaluation of percutaneous microwave ablation (PMWA) of localized adenomyosis. MAT…

Mullerian adenosarcoma (MAS) is a biphasic tumor with malignant stroma. It is most commonly of endometrial origin but occasionally originates in the cervix, ovary, or other pelvic/peritoneal sites. The typical MAS is low grade with an indol…

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…

Circular RNAs (circRNAs) are a category of RNA molecules with covalently closed circles lacking both a 5' cap and a 3' tail. In recent years, circRNAs have attracted much attention and become a research hotspot of the RNA field following mi…

Purpose: The two major ovarian-stimulation protocols for in vitro fertilization are gonadotropin-releasing hormone agonist (GnRH-a) protocol or GnRH antagonist (GnRH-ant) protocol; however, comparisons of their relative efficacy remain cont…

The objective of this paper was to compare the effect of recombinant follicle-stimulating hormone (rFSH) and urinary follicle-stimulating hormone (uFSH) on pregnancy rates and live birth rates with the gonadotropin-releasing hormone (GnRH) …

BACKGROUND: The 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 …

PURPOSE: To explore whether it is possible to predict the number and quality of the embryo using a few particular hTERT SNPs. METHODS: We included 997 Han Chinese women who were genetically unrelated and underwent assisted reproduction usi…

Objective: The POSEIDON criteria are used to stratify patients with low prognosis after assisted reproductive technology (ART) treatment. Since its introduction, there has been no large study about the prognosis of the POSEIDON population. …

Programmed cell death 4 (PDCD4) has been identified as a tumor‑suppressor gene that inhibits neoplastic transformation, tumor progression, and protein translation. It has been reported that multiple factors participate in the regulation of …

BACKGROUND: Endometriosis patients undergoing in vitro fertilization-embryo transfer (IVF-ET) treatment suffer from lower success rates. The success of IVF-ET is related to the receptivity of the uterus and the quality of embryos, and it is…
