Objective: To compare the cumulative live birth rates (cLBRs) after the first assisted reproductive technology (ART) cycle using flexible gonadotropin releasing hormone (GnRH)-antagonist protocol vs. standard long GnRH agonist protocol for …
Methods: 450 infertile patients with severe endometriosis undergoing IVF/ICSI were randomized to: medroxyprogesterone acetate +hMG; dydrogesterone+hMG; and progesterone +hMG. Ovulation was induced with a gonadotropin-releasing hormone agoni…
Abstract Background:Lung endometriosis is an extremely rare gynecological disease. Literature reports suggest that most patients will show generic symptoms such as hemoptysis, pneumothorax, and hemopneumothorax, which can often result in m…

PURPOSE: To explore the mechanism of levonorgestrel (LNG)-ameliorating adenomyosis through long non-coding RNA H19 (lncRNA H19)/miR-17/Toll-like receptor 4 (TLR4) pathway. PATIENTS AND METHODS: A total of 71 cases of adenomyosis and 54 case…
Background: Endometriosis is a benign, chronic, gynecological disease which affect the women in reproductive age. The dysfunction of immune system is associated with endometriosis and the diversity of microbiota in genital tract. According …
The aim of the present study was to investigate the role of microRNA‑15a‑5p (miR‑15a‑5p) in pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH) and elucidate the underlying pro‑apoptotic mechanism. Reverse transcription‑quantitative PCR analysis and gene…
The placenta plays a central role in the epigenetic programming of neurodevelopment by prenatal stress (PS), but this pathway is not fully understood. It difficult to study in humans because the conditions for intense, traumatic PS are almo…
