OBJECTIVE: To demonstrate that shared antibody responses in endometriosis and endometriosis-associated ovarian cancer spontaneously antagonize malignant progression and can be leveraged to develop future immunotherapies. METHODS: B cells f…
Background: Endometriosis is a common chronic disorder, which leads to dysmenorrhea, dyspareunia, pelvic chronic pain, and infertility. It affects ∼6% to 10% of the general female population. However, the etiology of endometriosis remained …
Ninjurin 1 (NINJ1) is a double-transmembrane cell-surface protein that might mediate plasma membrane rupture (PMR) and the diffusion of inflammatory factors. PMR is a characteristic of acinar cell injury in severe acute pancreatitis (SAP). …
Acute pancreatitis (AP) is a common acute abdomen and the number one cause of acute digestive hospitalizations in the United States. Abdominal pain is the main clinical manifestation of abdominal symptoms, so reducing the abdominal symptoms…
OBJECTIVES: To compare the clinical characteristics and prognosis of women with clear cell versus high-grade serous ovarian carcinoma. MATERIAL AND METHODS: Retrospective analysis of the clinical data of 50 cases patients with ovarian clea…
Owing to its difficulty in degrading and ease of accumulation in the body, perfluorooctanoic acid (PFOA) has a detrimental effect on reproduction. This study aimed to examine the effect of PFOA concentration in follicular fluid during ovula…
BackgroundThe immune response to infections could be largely driven by the individual's genes, especially in the major histocompatibility complex (MHC) region. Varicella-zoster virus (VZV) is a highly communicable pathogen. In addition to i…
Non-coding RNA has aroused great research interest recently, they play a wide range of biological functions, such as regulating cell cycle, cell proliferation, and intracellular substance metabolism. Piwi-interacting RNAs (piRNAs) are emerg…
BACKGROUND: The levonorgestrel-releasing intrauterine system (LNG-IUS) is widely used in contraception, menorrhagia, dysmenorrhea and to prevent endometrial hyperplasia during estrogen supplementation. Perforation is more often seen after e…
Subtle distal Fallopian tube abnormalities comprise a group of diseases that are characterised by subtle variations in tubal anatomy. This prospective cohort study investigated the prevalence of subtle distal Fallopian tube abnormalities in…
Endometriosis (EM) is characterized by the existence of endometrial mucosa outside the uterine cavity, which causesinfertility, persistent aches, and a decline in women's quality of life. Both hormone therapies and nonhormone therapies, suc…
Reproductive system diseases pose prominent threats to human physical and mental well-being. Besides being influenced by genetic material regulation and changes in lifestyle, the occurrence of these diseases is closely connected to exposure…
BACKGROUND: Intraductal papillary mucinous neoplasms (IPMNs) are characterized by their abundant mucin production and malignant potential. IPMNs of the pancreas are mainly managed according to their radiographic indications, but this approa…
Objective: To evaluate the impact of chronic endometritis (CE) on the recurrence of endometrial polyps (EPs) in premenopausal women who underwent hysteroscopic polypectomy. Methods: : We conducted a retrospective observational cohort study…
Objective: Pelvic organ prolapse (POP) affects a large proportion of adult women, but the pathogenesis of POP remains unclear. The increase in global population aging will impose a substantial medical burden. Herein, we aimed to explore the…
Background: The diagnostic capabilities of exosomes in the field of reproductive biomedicine have attracted much attention. The aim of this scientometric study was to statistically and qualitatively assess the knowledge structure, hot issue…
The vagina contains at least a billion microbial cells, dominated by lactobacilli. Here we perform metagenomic shotgun sequencing on cervical and fecal samples from a cohort of 516 Chinese women of reproductive age, as well as cervical, fec…
Surgical management for gynecologic malignancies often involves hysterectomy, often constituting the most common gynecologic surgery worldwide. Despite maximal surgical and medical care, gynecologic malignancies have a high rate of recurren…
Typical phyllodes tumours (PTs) of the breast are fibroepithelial neoplasms characterised histologically by stromal hypercellularity and leaf-like structures. However, morphological changes may be atypical in some cases, increasing the diff…
Immune responses are an integral part of the pathogenesis of pancreatitis. Studies applying the mouse model of pancreatitis induced by partial ligation of the pancreatic duct to explore the pancreatic immune microenvironment are still lacki…
BACKGROUND: Nonthyroidal illness syndrome (NTIS) is common in critical illness and is associated with poor prognosis. The aim of this study was to find the prevalence, charateristics, and prognosis of NTIS and its correlation with outcomes …
BACKGROUND: Despite a large number of studies on the selection of trigger drugs, it remains unclear whether the dual trigger with human chorionic gonadotropin (hCG) and gonadotropin-releasing hormone (GnRH) agonist, compared to the trigger …
BACKGROUND: By using network pharmacology and molecular docking technology, we have explored the mechanism of action of Sanqi in the treatment of endometriosis (EMS), in order to provide reference for clinical studies of Chinese medicine tr…
We report the quaternary structure of core transcriptional complex for the full-length human progesterone receptor-B (PR-B) homodimer with primary coactivator steroid receptor coactivator-2 (SRC-2) and the secondary coactivator p300/CREB-bi…
Severe acute pancreatitis (SAP) is an inflammatory disease of the pancreas accompanied by tissue injury and necrosis. It not only affects the pancreas but also triggers a systemic inflammatory response that leads to multiorgan failure or ev…
