Endometriosis is an inflammatory gynecological disorder characterized by endometrial tissue growth located outside of the uterine cavity in addition to chronic pelvic pain and infertility. In this study, we aim to develop a potential therap…
BACKGROUND: Endometriosis is a frequently occurring disease in women, which seriously affects their quality of life. However, its etiology and pathogenesis are still unclear. METHODS: To identify key genes/pathways involved in the pathogen…
Abnormal activity of human prolactin (PRL) and its membrane-associated receptor (PRLR) contributes to the progression of uterine carcinoma. However, the underlying mechanisms are not well understood, and current means of targeting the PRL/P…
High-altitude adaptation of Tibetans represents a remarkable case of natural selection during recent human evolution. Previous genome-wide scans found many non-coding variants under selection, suggesting a pressing need to understand the fu…
BACKGROUND: The management of ground-glass opacities (GGOs) depends mainly on personal experience. In clinical practice, benign GGOs are not rare in resected specimens, for which operations may be avoided. We retrospectively compared the cl…
Abstract 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 bet…
OBJECTIVE: To analyze clinical studies on correlations between Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) body constitution types and diseases published in the past 10 years, and to provide an evidence base to support the use of such correlations f…
PURPOSE: To investigate whether progestin-primed ovarian stimulation (PPOS) can be an alternative as gonadotrophin-releasing hormone agonist (GnRHa) long protocol for infertile women with normal ovarian reserve during IVF/ICSI. METHODS: A …
RESEARCH QUESTION: Is abnormal gene module expression in the eutopic endometrium related to the occurrence of endometriosis? DESIGN: Nine datasets of normal and eutopic endometrium were searched and collected through the National Center fo…
PURPOSE: A previous study found that a lack of SPOCK2 expression was an early event that occurs during the malignant transformation of endometriosis (EMS); however, the role played by SPOCK2 in the pathogenesis of endometriosis and its mali…
OBJECTIVE: To evaluate whether endometrial thickness (EMT) change in response to progesterone has an effect on pregnancy outcomes in frozen-thawed embryo transfer (FET) cycles. DESIGN: Retrospective observational study. SETTING: Tertiary-…
RESEARCH QUESTION: Does preconception body mass index (BMI) affect neonatal outcomes in women with endometriosis who conceive with IVF? DESIGN: This retrospective study included 7086 women who delivered a singleton live birth through IVF b…
OBJECTIVE: This study aimed to provide insight into the effect of time interval between loop electrosurgical excision procedure (LEEP) and subsequent hysterectomy on postoperative infectious morbidity in cervical neoplasia patients. METHOD…
OBJECTIVE: This study aimed to compare the pregnancy outcomes between women receiving frozen embryo transfer (FET) with hormone replacement treatment (HRT) with and without gonadotropin-releasing hormone agonist (GnRHa) pretreatment. METHO…
Object: Is it possible to use different progestins cotreatment with human menopausal gonadotrophin (hMG) in women with advanced endometriosis but normal ovulation during controlled ovarian hyperstimulation (COH) in vitro fertilization (IVF)…
Abstract Background: Ovarian endometriosis (OE) is a common type of endometrioma, which is a benign disease of gynecology. For the diagnosis of OE, ultrasonography is a very effective and straightforward. OE rupture is rare, and there is st…
PURPOSE: To examine the expression of MUC16 in the endometrium peri-implantation period in three different cohort studies. METHODS: This was a retrospective observational cohort study. A total of 245 participants were recruited in three se…
Human endometrium is a highly regenerative and dynamic tissue that undergoes cyclic changes during menstrual cycle. It has been reported that endometrial epithelium contains a population of progenitor/stem cells. Increasing amount of eviden…
Objective: To investigate the clinical, pathological and immunohistochemical features of seromucinous neoplasms, including seromucinous cystadenoma, borderline tumour and seromucinous carcinomas of the ovary. Methods: A retrospective review…
To investigate the expression and clinical significance of nucleoside diphosphate kinase A (nm23-H1), p53, and integrin β1 in endometriosis, normal and ectopic endometrial tissues were collected and the levels of nm23-H1, p53, and integrin …
Cryoablation, as a well-characterized technology, has multifarious clinical applications. But few are reported on ureteral endometriosis. Thus, we examined the feasibility and safety of cryotherapy with a novel balloon cryoprobe on ureter i…
The AT-rich Interactive Domain 1A (ARID1A) is one of the most frequently mutated genes in gastric cancer. Here, we found that genetic variants in noncoding regions of ARID1A associated with altered protein levels by target sequencing. Notab…
Guizhi Fuling capsule (GZFLc) is a modern preparation from traditional Chinese Medicine. Guizhi Fuling was first prescribed by Zhang Zhongjing almost two thousand years ago for the treatment of primary dysmenorrhea. It has also been used to…
BACKGROUND: Human follicular fluid (HFF), which is composed by essential proteins required for the follicle development, provides an important microenvironment for oocyte maturation. Recently, overweight status has been considered as a detr…
When the presence of endometriotic lesions are not evident by hematoxylin and eosin staining, CD10 is used to highlight and confirm the presence of endometriotic stroma. However, CD10 is not specific only to the endometrial stroma but is al…
