PurposeTo assess obstetric outcomes and placental histology following intracytoplasmic sperm injection (ICSI), for non-male infertility.MethodsThis was a retrospective cohort of live born singleton deliveries after in vitro fertilization (I…

RESEARCH QUESTION: Does endometriosis have an effect on the placental histopathology pattern and perinatal outcome in singleton live births resulting from IVF treatment? DESIGN: Retrospective cohort study evaluating the data on all live bi…

Inositol 1,4,5-Triphosphate Receptor Family (ITPRs) are necessary intracellular Ca2+-release channel encoders and participate in mammalian cell physiological and pathological processes. Previous studies have suggested that ITPRs participate…

OBJECTIVE: To explore the feasibility of diffusion-weighted magnetic resonance imaging (DWI) instead of contrast-enhanced (CE) imaging for evaluation of the immediate therapeutic efficacy of high-intensity focused ultrasound (HIFU) ablation…

Endometriosis (EMs) is a common cause for female infertility, leading to the need for in vitro fertilization (IVF). In clinics, we found the operative oocyte retrieval to be more or less difficult in women with EMs. We hypothesized that EMs…

PurposeProgestin resistance is a critical obstacle for endometrial conservative therapy. Therefore, studies to acquire a more comprehensive understanding of the mechanisms are urgent. However, the pivotal molecules are still unexplored.Mate…

PurposeTo evaluate the effect of non-cavity-distorting intramural leiomyomas on the placental histopathology pattern and perinatal outcome in singleton live births resulting from in vitro fertilization treatment.MethodsThe study population …

BackgroundOvarian cancer is the 5th leading cause of death of women due to cancer in the United States. Although carbohydrate antigen 125 has a moderate diagnostic utility, the phenomenon of false-positive exists. As novel effective biomark…

Pulmonary endometriosis is a rare form of thoracic endometriosis. We herein describe a 29-year-old woman with recurrent hemoptysis associated with her menstrual cycle. The patient had a 4-month history of catamenial hemoptysis without thora…

BackgroundThis clinical trial aimed to compare the clinical efficacy of highly purified human menopausal gonadotropin (HP-HMG) plus recombinant human follicle-stimulating hormone (rFSH) versus rFSH alone on controlled ovarian stimulation (C…

RationaleAggressive fibromatosis (AF) of abdominal wall is also called desmoid tumor, ligament tumor, fibrous tissue tumor hyperplasia, tendon membrane fibroma or soft tissue ligament fibroma, etc. Aggressive fibromatosis of abdominal wall …

ObjectiveUterine adenomatoid tumors (UATs) are tubercle without significant clinical features. The study aims to summarize the clinicopathological characteristics of UATs to improve diagnostic accuracy.MethodsBetween January 2014 and Decemb…

Activin A can stimulate aromatase P450 (P450arom) expression in eutopic endometrial stromal cells (ESCs) of endometriosis by activin type I receptor-Smad pathway. In order to identify Smad3/4 binding to P450arom promoter II that mediates ac…

ObjectiveTo assess the added value of diffusion-weighted magnetic resonance imaging (DWI) with apparent diffusion coefficient (ADC) values compared to MRI, for characterizing the tubo-ovarian abscesses (TOA) mimicking ovarian malignancy.Mat…

Tumor necrosis factor α (TNF-α), a proinflammatory cytokine, may play an important role in the pathogenesis of endometriosis; therefore, TNF-α inhibitors potentially have an effect on endometriosis. To investigate the effect of anti-TNF-α t…

In this in-vitro study, the effect of prohibitin (PHB) on glucose metabolism in eutopic endometrial stromal cells from women with endometriosis was investigated. Endometrial stromal cells were isolated from endometrium in women with endomet…

OBJECTIVE: To explore the advantage, feasibility and safety of modified approach to difficult vaginal hysterectomy and provide scientific rationales for expanding its indications. METHODS: A retrospective study was conducted for 237 patient…

ObjectiveRecent studies have shown that the local expression of soluble interleukin (IL) -1 receptor type II (sIL-1 RII) in endometrial tissue of women with endometriosis is decreased, and the depression of IL-1 RII was more significant in …
