BACKGROUND: To evaluate the short-term and long-term outcomes after laparoscopic hysterectomy (LH) compared with abdominal hysterectomy (AH) in case of benign gynecological disease. METHODS: A multi-center cohort retrospective comparative …

Di (2-ethylhexyl) phthalate (DEHP) is a widely used plastic additive. As an environmental endocrine disruptor, it has been shown to be harmful to the mammalian reproductive system. Previous studies indicated that DEHP inhibited the developm…

Recent advances suggest that precancerous lesions of pelvic serous carcinoma originate from tubal secretory cells. The purpose of our study was to determine if an increased number of secretory cells vary with age or location in the fallopia…

BACKGROUND: Clinical ovulation induction induces blood estrogen (E2) in excess of physiological levels, which can hinder uterine receptivity. In contrast, progesterone produces the opposite clinical effect, suggesting that it might be capab…

Background: To explore whether endometrial receptivity is determined by osteopontin (OPN) and integrin αvβ3 expression in women with elevated serum progesterone (P) and/or oestradiol (E2) who are undergoing in vitro fertilisation (IVF). Met…

ObjectivesTo evaluate the feasibility of differentiating between acute pancreatitis (AP) and healthy pancreas using diffusion tensor imaging (DTI) and correlate apparent diffusion coefficient (ADC) /fractional anisotropy (FA) values with th…

BACKGROUND: Ovarian cancer has the highest mortality rate of the three main malignant tumors of the female reproductive system, with a 5-year overall survival (OS) of only 20-30 %. Approximately 70 % of patients relapse without being cured.…

Lifestyle factors are responsible for a considerable portion of cancer incidence worldwide, but credible estimates from the World Health Organization and the International Agency for Research on Cancer (IARC) suggest that the fraction of ca…

Recent advances suggest that precancerous lesions of pelvic serous carcinoma originate from tubal secretory cells. The purpose of our study was to determine if an increased number of secretory cells varies with age or location in the fallop…

AIMS: To assess gender differences in characteristics, mortality rates, and the causes and predictors of death among treated opioid-dependent individuals. METHODS: Linked vital statistics data were obtained for all individuals first enroll…

High-risk human papillomavirus (HPV) type 16, which is responsible for greater than 50% of cervical cancer cases, is the most prevalent and lethal HPV type. However, the molecular mechanisms of cervical carcinogenesis remain elusive, partic…

DNA methylation is clinically relevant to important tumorigenic mechanisms. This study evaluated the methylation status of candidate genes in cervical neoplasia and determined their diagnostic performance in clinical practice. Cervical canc…

OBJECTIVE: To investigate the clinical efficacy of laparoscopic repair of iatrogenic vesicovaginal fistulas (VVF) and rectovaginal fistulas. METHODS: Seventeen female patients with iatrogenic fistulas (11 cases of VVF and 6 cases of high r…

AIMS: To estimate mortality rates among treated opioid-dependent individuals by cause and in relation to the general population, and to estimate the instantaneous effects of opioid detoxification and maintenance treatment (MMT) on the hazar…

OBJECTIVE: This study measured the human epididymis protein 4 (HE4) and CA125 levels in Chinese women with benign gynecological disorders. MATERIAL AND METHODS: Sera were obtained from Chinese women prior to surgery for a pelvic mass and H…

BACKGROUND: Sporadic cases of abdominal pain and dysmotility has been described after treatment with gonadotropin-releasing hormone (GnRH) analogs. The aim of the present study was to scrutinize for patients with severe gastrointestinal com…

Endometriosis is a chronic, inflammatory and common gynaecological disease. This study investigated the association between TP53 codon 72 polymorphism and the risk of endometriosis. A search for relevant articles was conducted in PubMed, Em…

This study was conducted to investigate the association between TP53 Arg72Pro polymorphism (rs1042522) and risk of endometriosis. Studies were retrieved from Pubmed, Embase and HuGENet, and four models [dominant (AA+AG vs. GG), recessive (A…

Liver cancer is one of the most lethal cancers, but our knowledge of the molecular mechanism underlying this process remains insufficient. Through deep sequencing and expression regulation analysis in liver cancer cells, we identified two n…

BACKGROUND: Recently, a relationship between recurrent pregnancy loss (RPL) and Apolipoprotein E (Apo E) gene polymorphisms has been proposed. In order to investigate the real association between Apo E polymorphisms and RPL, our meta-analys…

BACKGROUND: To explore the clinical characteristics of congenital cervical atresia. METHODS: This retrospective analysis included 32 cases of congenital cervical atresia treated from March 1984 to September 2010. The anatomic location, ult…

Objective To investigate the clinical efficacy and safety of laparoscopic mifepristone in treatment of endometriosis. Methods From January 2011- March 2014 108 patients were admitted Shangqiu City,MCH endometriosis,whether combined drug tre…

PurposeDynamic contrast-enhanced magnetic resonance imaging (DCE-MRI) is increasingly used for breast cancer diagnosis as supplementary to conventional imaging techniques. Combining of diffusion-weighted imaging (DWI) of morphology and kine…

OBJECTIVE: To study the effect of interleukin-1β (IL-1β) on the expressions activin A, follistatin, and cripto in cultured human endometrial stromal cells (HESCs) form patients with endometriosis. METHODS: Cultured HESCs were stimulated wi…
