PURPOSE: Studies have shown that adenomyomectomy can effectively treat women with adenomyosis in a short period of time. However, the long-term efficacy of adenomyomectomy has rarely been reported. The objective of this study was to determi…

To further dissect the genetic architecture of colorectal cancer (CRC), we performed whole-genome sequencing of 1,439 cases and 720 controls, imputed discovered sequence variants and Haplotype Reference Consortium panel variants into genome…

BACKGROUND: Endometriosis (EM) is a common gynecological disease in women of reproductive age. These patients in approximately 80% suffer the various degree pain. This study will investigate synergistically the mechanism of the higher-posit…

OBJECTIVE: To determine the efficacy of laparoscopic surgery combined with GnRH agonist (GnRH-a) in treating infertile patients with endometriosis (EMs), and analyze its effect on the levels of serum hormones and inflammatory factors of the…

Abstract Objective: Endometriosis is a chronic disease characterized by the growth of endometrial cells outside the uterine cavity. The dysfunction of the immune system is strongly associated with the progression of endometriosis, and is al…

Acute pancreatitis (AP) is a common and devastating inflammatory disorder of the pancreas. However, there are still no effective treatments available for the disease. Therefore, it is important to discover new therapeutic targets and strate…

Pain is the most severe and common symptom of endometriosis. Its underlying pathogenetic mechanism is poorly understood. Nerve sensitization is a particular research challenge, due to the limitations of general endometriosis models and samp…

MicroRNA (miR)-423-5p is a potential target for the diagnosis and therapy of heart failure and cancer. The present study aimed to investigate the expression and role of miR-423-5p in ovarian cancer. miR-423-5p expression in ovarian tissues …

We studied the efficacy of prophylactic internal iliac artery balloon catheterization for managing severe hemorrhage caused by pernicious placenta previa.This prospective observational study was conducted in Tongji Hospital, Wuhan, China. O…

BACKGROUND: Inflammation plays an important role in the pathogenesis of ovarian cancer. This study sought to investigate the association between the preoperative c-reactive protein/albumin ratio (CRP/Alb) and oncological outcomes in ovarian…

OBJECTIVE: In this study, the effects of survivin (SVV) on angiogenesis were evaluated in vitro and in vivo. METHODS: The adenovirus (Ad)-mediated murine SVV gene was transfected into rat aortic endothelial cells (RAECs). RAECs expressing …

Pelvic inflammatory disease (PID) can lead to a poor outcome of severe sequelae, and the current methods of clinical diagnosis are not satisfactory. Metabolomics is an effective method for the identification of disease-related metabolite bi…

BACKGROUND: Shift work disrupts the circadian rhythm and may cause menstruation disorders. This study assessed the impact of shift work on menstrual cycle in a population of Chinese nurses. METHODS: Questionnaires on menstrual characterist…

OBJECTIVE: To explore the effects of uterine adenomyosis on the clinical outcomes of infertility patients treated with in vitro fertilization/intracytoplasmic sperm injection-embryo transfer (IVF/ICSI-ET). METHODS: A retrospective study wa…

BACKGROUND: Adenomyomectomy has recently been considered the priority option for the treatment of adenomyosis, however, the surgical efficacy and modes are still debated. We aimed to evaluate the efficacy of laparoscopic adenomyomectomy usi…

OBJECTIVE: This study aimed to assess the long term outcomes (all-cause death, myocardial infarction, target vessel revascularization, and silent restenosis at 12 months) of one-stent vs. two-stent implantation due to coronary bifurcation l…

The evasion of anti-growth signaling is an important characteristic of cancer cells. In order to continue to proliferate, cancer cells must somehow uncouple themselves from the many signals that exist to slow down cell growth. Here, we defi…

BACKGROUND: Endometriosis is a common cause of pain including radicular pain. Ectopic endometrial tissue may directly affect peripheral nerves including the sciatic, which has not been modelled in animals. METHODS: We developed a rat model…

PURPOSE: To evaluate the epigenetic risk linked to assisted reproductive technology (ART) at single-embryo level by analyzing the methylation status of imprinted H19, PEG1, and KvDMR1 in human preimplantation embryos. METHODS: A total of 2…

OBJECTIVE: To explore the efficacies and safety of laparoscopic-assisted rectal resection and transvaginal removal for middle or low rectal endometriosis. METHODS: A total of 48 patients with middle or low rectal endometriosis undergoing l…

OBJECTIVE: To study the role of lipoxin A4 (LXA4) in endometriosis. DESIGN: Molecular analysis in human samples and primary human endometriotic stromal cells (ESCs). SETTING: University hospital. PATIENT(S): Forty-nine premenopausal wome…

BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE: Lipoxins can function as endogenous 'breaking signals' in inflammation and play important roles in the progression of endometriosis. In this study, we further investigated the molecular mechanism by which lipoxin A4 …

Endometrial adenocarcinoma is the most common tumour of the female genital tract in developed countries, and oestrogen receptor (ER) signalling plays a pivotal role in its pathogenesis. When we used bioinformatics tools to search for the ge…

Benign metastasizing leiomyoma (BML) is a rare condition that occurs in all age groups and that is particularly prevalent among women of late childbearing age. All patients have a history of uterine leiomyoma and/or myomectomy, often associ…

PURPOSE: CA-125 has been a valuable marker for detecting ovarian cancer, however, it is not sensitive enough to detect early-stage disease and not specific to ovarian cancer. The purpose of our study was to identify autoantibody markers tha…
