The aim of the present study was to examine the effects of the human chorionic gonadotropin (hCG) dose on the pulsatility indices (PI) of the intraovarian artery on the day of follicle aspiration and the oocyte quality, intrafollicular oxid…
Epigenetic changes play significant roles in cancer development. UHRF1, an epigenetic regulator, has been shown to be overexpressed and to coordinate tumor suppressor gene (TSG) silencing in several cancers. In a previous study, we found th…
Generally, most of ovarian cancer cannot be detected until large scale and remote metastasis occurs, which is the major cause of high mortality in ovarian cancer. Therefore, it is urgent to discover metastasis-related biomarkers for the det…
Polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) is a common reproductive endocrinology disease, however, an explicit etiology is not known. Insulin resistance (IR) appears to be central to the pathogenesis of PCOS and inflammation may be significant in th…
BACKGROUND: Endometriosis affects fertility negatively. The study aims to evaluate whether laparoscopic surgery combined with oral contraceptive or herbs were more effective than laparoscopic alone in improving fecundity and pelvic pain in …
OBJECTIVE: To explore the ultrastructural features of endometrial-myometrial interface (EMI) of adenomyosis and normal myometrium. METHODS: From May 2010 to September 2013, 102 uterine myometrial specimens were obtained from 102 patients u…
The endometrial-myometrial interface (EMI) is a specific functional region of uterus. However, our knowledge on EMI ultrastructure both in normal uterus and adenomyosis is far from enough to understand its pathology. In this study, used the…
CDX2, a master transcriptional regulator of intestinal cell differentiation and survival, has been used as a marker to indicate colorectal lineage in adenocarcinomas of unknown origin. Pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC) is one of the m…
BACKGROUND: Both endometriosis and adenomyosis are common benign gynecological diseases. This study aimed to find the novel noninvasive, biochemical diagnostic markers for detection of endometriosis and adenomyosis, and evaluate the correla…
OBJECTIVE: To evaluate the efficacy of laparoscopic conservative surgery plus gonadotropin-releasing hormone agonist (GnRH-a) in the treatment of endometriosis through meta-analysis. METHODS: Six randomized controlled clinical trials compa…
OBJECTIVE: To study the different expression of microRNA(miRNA) including mir-29c, mir-200a, mir-145 in the mid-secretary endometrium and its relationship with infertility of endometriosis. METHODS: From August 2011 to February 2013, 36 in…
We demonstrate for the first time that the genome-wide profiling of HIV-infected peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs) from HIV-patients free of neurologic disease show overrepresentation of neurodegenerative pathways (Alzheimer's, Par…
