Oocyte retrieval is a routine procedure during the application of assisted reproduction technology. However, technical difficulties experienced during oocyte retrieval and the subsequent unsatisfactory number of oocytes obtained are rarely …
BACKGROUND: To summarize the characteristics of solitary necrotic nodules (SNN) in the liver observed under contrast-enhanced ultrasonography (CEUS). METHODS: Conventional ultrasonography (US) and CEUS were performed in 24 patients who wer…
Laparoendoscopic single-site surgery (LESS) further minimizes the invasiveness of traditional laparoscopic surgery. However, the "chopstick" effect caused by the parallel arrangement of the instruments in the umbilicus is considered an obst…
MicroRNAs (miRNAs) in the let-7 family have established regulatory roles in pregnancy; in this study, we evaluated whether miRNAs detectable in the circulation are associated with the ovarian response to stimulation.In total, 25 patients wi…
BACKGROUND: The aim of our present study was to investigate the clinical characteristics, treatment status and complications in women with endometriosis (EM) and tube ovarian abscess (TOA) to determine the possible association between TOA a…
OBJECTIVE: This study aimed to determine the clinical features of Mayer-Rokitansky-Küster-Hauser (MRKH) syndrome patients with functional uterine remnants and endometriosis in a large cohort of Chinese patients. DESIGN: This was a retrospe…
Objectives: To compare the clinical characteristics and prognosis of women with clear cell versus high-grade serous ovarian carcinoma. Methods: : Retrospective analysis of the clinical data of 50 cases patients with ovarian clear cell carc…
BackgroundA large number of studies have shown that ulcerative colitis (UC) can increase the risk of colorectal cancer (CRC). The purpose of the present study was to explore the specific mechanism of UC influence on CRC.MethodsWe searched P…
BACKGROUND Curcumol is a hydrogenated austenitic compound with hemiketal. In this study we evaluated the effects of curcumol on local inflammatory response, cell proliferation, and metastasis in endometriosis, and elucidated the underlying …
The sperm quality of some males is in a critical state, making it hard for clinicians to choose the suitable fertilisation methods. This study aimed to develop an intelligent nomogram for predicting fertilisation rate of infertile males wit…
INTRODUCTION: This study aimed to evaluate whether endometriosis could disturb the mental health and health-related quality of life (HRQoL) of patients and to provide a new prospective for further treatment of endometriosis. METHODS: A com…
BACKGROUND Intestinal injury plays a key role in the pathogenesis of severe acute pancreatitis (SAP). In this study, we investigated the protective function of downregulated Gasdermin D (GSDMD) in intestinal damage in a mouse model of sever…
"Dual triggering" for final oocyte maturation using a combination of a gonadotropin-releasing hormone agonist (GnRHa) and human chorionic gonadotropin (hCG) can improve clinical outcomes in high responders during in vitro fertilization-intr…
Abstract Background: Brain-derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF) has been recognized as a regulator in the formation and maintenance of chronic pain in various chronic disorders. BDNF together with its high-affinity tyrosine kinase type B (Trk…

Abstract Background Ovary is the most common organ site involved by endometriosis. We previously found that fallopian tube may contribute to the histogenesis of ovarian endometriosis. The finding was novel and requires further studies. We …
RATIONALE: Gastric-type endocervical adenocarcinoma (GAS) is a rare type of cervical adenocarcinoma that is a mucinous adenocarcinoma with a variety of gastral patterns. To date, there are no systematic clinical diagnosis and treatment guid…
The diagnosis of endometriosis is typically delayed by years for the unexclusive symptom and the traumatic diagnostic method. Several studies have demonstrated that gut microbiota and cervical mucus potentially can be used as auxiliary diag…
Hexestrol (HES) is a synthetic non-steroidal estrogen that was widely used illegally to boost the growth rate in livestock production and aquaculture. HES can also be transferred to humans from treated animals and the environment. HES has b…
BACKGROUND: In a previous study, we reported that amnion promotes endometrial cell growth by regulating cytokines. In this study, hierarchical cluster analysis enabled the evaluation of cytokine expression changes after amnion treatment to …
Controlled ovarian hyperstimulation (COH) impairs the endometrium receptivity during the implantation window, resulting in a lower clinical pregnancy rate and a higher abortion rate. Our study explored the effect of electroacupuncture on th…
Polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) is one of the most common endocrine disorders in women of reproductive age, which is characterized by ovulatory dysfunction, clinical and/or biochemical androgen excess, polycystic ovaries on ultrasound and …
Ovarian cancer (OC) remains the leading cause of mortality due to gynecological malignancies. Epidemiological studies have demonstrated that steroid hormones released from the hypothalamic‑pituitary‑ovarian axis can play a role in stimulati…
Colorectal cancer ranks third in terms of incidence and second in terms of mortality worldwide. The homeobox transcript antisense intergenic RNA (HOTAIR), which was found to be located on the antisense chain of the homeobox C (HOXC) gene cl…
BACKGROUND: Endometriosis is a chronic hormonal inflammatory disease characterized by the presence of endometrial tissue outside the uterus. Endometriosis often causes infertility, which brings physical and mental pain to patients and their…
