BackgroundGonadotropin-releasing hormone antagonist(GnRH-ant) has been shown to have a negative effect on endometrial receptivity. Therefore, the use of lower doses of GnRH-ant during controlled ovarian stimulation (COS) may improve endomet…
BackgroundPoor endometrial receptivity is a major factor that leads to recurrent implantation failure. However, the traditional method cannot accurately evaluate endometrial receptivity. Various studies have indicated that microRNAs (miRNAs…
Dystocia is a serious problem for pregnant women, and it increases the cesarean section rate. Although uterine dysfunction has an unknown etiology, it is responsible for cesarean delivery and clinical dystocia, resulting in neonatal morbidi…
Research questionDoes the absence of GRIM19 affect pyroptosis of macrophages? Is the release of IL-1β caused by pyroptosis a relevant factor in the regulation of adenomyosis progression?DesignEndometrial tissues were collected from patients…
The epithelial-to-mesenchymal transition may play a role in adenomyosis. GRIM19 expression is downregulated in adenomyotic lesions, and the effects of this downregulation in adenomyosis remain relatively unclear. In this study, we aimed to …
ABSTRACT: Endometriosis is associated with dysmenorrhea, chronic pelvic pain, and infertility. The specific mechanism of endometriosis remains unclear. The aim of this study was to apply a bioinformatics approach to reveal related pathways …
BackgroundMeigs' syndrome is regarded as a benign ovarian tumor accompanied by pleural effusion and ascites, both of which resolve after removal of the tumor. Patients often seek treatment in the Department of Respiratory and Critical Care …

BackgroundThis study aimed to investigate the clinical and pathological characteristics, and the recurrence and prognostic factors of borderline ovarian tumors (BOTs).MethodsThe data of 286 patients admitted to hospital and followed up for …
Abstract BackgroundAlthough there are reports of small bowel obstruction (SBO) secondary to tubo-ovarian abscess (TOA), there have been no documented cases of unexpected SBO, multiple intestinal ruptures and adhesions in a patient with chr…
Controlled ovarian hyperstimulation (COH) is the most common therapeutic protocol to obtain a considerable number of oocytes in IVF-ET cycles. To date, the risk factors affecting COH outcomes remain elusive. Growth differentiation factor 8 …
Cardiac hypertrophy, characterized by the enlargement of cardiomyocytes, is initially an adaptive response to physiological and pathological stimuli. Decompensated cardiac hypertrophy is related to fibrosis, inflammatory cytokine, maladapti…
RationaleSpontaneous uterine rupture during pregnancy, occurring most often during labor in the context of a scarred uterus, is a serious obstetric complication. Perhaps even more serious because of its extreme rarity, spontaneous uterine r…
BACKGROUND: It is reported that acute cerebral infarction with adenomyosis is associated with elevated D-Dimer, elevated CA125, anemia and menstruation. However, previous reports did not notice infection known as fever, which may be a poten…
Objective To investigate the effects and possible mechanism of Huangzhi Neiyi capsule (HZNY) on angiogenesis in rats with endometriosis. Methods Sixty Sprague-Dawley rats were used to establish an endometriosis model by autologous transplan…
BackgroundNeuropathic pain is a major public health problem because it has a considerable impact on life quality of patients. TRP channels from dorsal root ganglion (DRG) play a crucial role in facilitating pain transmission at peripheral a…
Double-stranded DNA (dsDNA) sensor cyclic-GMP-AMP synthetase (cGAS) and its downstream interferon gene stimulator (STING) act as important immune monitoring media have become a research hotspot. cGAS-STING pathway may play a key role in the…
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…
A clinically reliable non-invasive test for endometriosis is expected to reduce the diagnostic delay. Although varieties of biomarkers have been investigated for decades, and cancer antigen-125, cancer antigen-199, interleukin-6, and urocor…
