BACKGROUND: The exact role of sperm reactive oxygen species (ROS) in early embryo development has yet to be fully identified, and most of existing research did not differentiate female infertility factors, ignoring the importance of oocyte …
OBJECTIVE: To determine the current level of knowledge about hormonal contraception among young women so they may be better informed about the risks and various choices available to them regarding hormonal contraception (HC). METHODS: In a…
Gynecological diseases are a series of diseases caused by abnormalities in the female reproductive organs or breast, which endanger women's fertility and even their lives. Therefore, it is important to investigate the mechanism of occurrenc…
OBJECTIVE: To compare the changes of metabolites between Low-level light therapy (LLLT) and combined oral contraceptive (COC) after treatment of primary dysmenorrhea (PD), and to compare and analyze the biological and biochemical effects of…
Ovarian cancer (OC) is one of the most lethal malignancies of the female reproductive system. OC patients are usually diagnosed at advanced stages due to the lack of early diagnosis. The standard treatment for OC includes a combination of d…
Endometriosis (EMS) is a common benign gynecological disease affecting women of reproductive age. It is characterized by abnormal growth of endometrial tissue outside the uterine cavity, resulting in chronic pelvic pain and infertility. End…
We aimed to compare low-level light therapy with oral contraceptive pills for pain relief and serum levels of nitric oxide and prostaglandin E2 in patients with primary dysmenorrhoea. This was a randomised, active comparator-controlled, mul…
BACKGROUND: The contents of ovarian endometrioma (OMA) such as inflammatory mediators, reactive oxygen species, and iron may disrupt normal folliculogenesis and result in subsequent oocyte apoptosis. Therefore, women with OMA have a potenti…
BACKGROUND: Primary dysmenorrhea (PD) is one of the most common complaints in women of childbearing age. Therefore, this trial aimed to assess the efficacy and safety of low-power visible-light-activated photodynamic therapy (PDT) in the tr…
Chemotherapy is a commonly used strategy for advanced lung cancer patients. However, its clinical application is restrained due to its toxicity and drug resistance. Ginsenoside Rg3 (Rg3) has a strong anticancer influence on colon cancer, br…
BACKGROUND: Endometriosis affects approximately 10% of reproductive-age women, however, endometriosis associated malignant transformation is rare and is often report as a rare case. CASE SUMMARY: Herein, we report of a 49-year-old female p…
Primary dysmenorrhea (PD) is a prevalent problem in gynecologic clinics among adolescents and women of reproductive age. Several therapy modalities, including traditional Chinese medicine, are deemed adequate (TCM) and have been in practice…
BACKGROUND: Maternal recognition is the crucial step for establishing pregnancy in cattle. This study aims to identify endometrial genes and biological pathways involved in the maternal recognition of pregnancy. Caruncular endometrial tissu…
Ovarian cancer is the most common and lethal gynecological tumor in women worldwide. High-grade serous ovarian carcinoma (HGSOC) is one of the histological subtypes of epithelial ovarian cancer, accounting for 70%. It often occurs at later …
Umbilical endometriosis is a rare event. A 44-year-old woman complained of a palpable abdominal mass with bloody secretion and chronic abdominal pain for 2 months. 18 F-FDG PET/CT images demonstrated multiple foci of increased tracer uptake…
Wolfiporia cocos, a precious mushroom with a long history as an edible food and Asian traditional medicine, remains unclear in the genetic mechanism underlying the formation of large sclerotia. Here, two complete circular mitogenomes (BL16,…
Melatonin (N‑acetyl‑5‑methoxytryptamine; MT) has been shown to have a protective effect against sepsis‑induced renal injury, however, the mechanisms underlying the function of MT remain to be elucidated. Therefore, in the present study, the…
OBJECTIVE: Adenomyosis is a common gynecologic disease. Alterations in the eutopic endometria might play an important role in the pathogenesis of adenomyosis. Long non-coding RNA (lncRNA) represents key regulators of gene expression. Our go…
BACKGROUND: Menopausal hormone therapy (MHT) has been proven to have beneficial effects on several components of metabolic syndrome. However, the effects vary according to different regimens, dosages, and duration of MHT. The aim of the stu…
Adenomyosis is a prevalent gynecologic benign disease in women. Despite its significance, there is only a limited understanding of its pathological mechanisms. Talin1, a cytoskeletal protein, plays an important role in cell survival, prolif…
Infertility is a risk factor for ovarian cancer (OvCa). The goal was to determine if antibodies to selenium-binding protein 1 (SBP1), an autoantibody we identified in patients with premature ovarian failure (POF), occurs in both infertility…
OBJECTIVE: To analyze the incidence of endometriosis in inpatients with infertility in Peking Union Medical College Hospital in 30 years. METHODS: The inpatients of Peking Union Medical College Hospital admitted between May 1983 and Novemb…
OBJECTIVE: The aim of this study was to evaluate the efficacy, safety and sexual life quality outcomes of ultrasound-guided high-intensity focused ultrasound (HIFU) ablations for the treatment of patients with symptomatic adenomyosis and ut…
INTRODUCTION: Endometriosis is a chronic inflammatory condition. Interleukin (IL) 37 is a member of the IL-1 family and an anti-inflammatory cytokine. This study investigated the gene and protein expression of IL-37 in the eutopic and ectop…
