OBJECTIVES: Chlamydia trachomatis is a pathogen which can cause hydrosalpinx and tubal fibrosis when infecting the urogenital tract. However, the mechanism is still not clear. There is growing evidence that the gut microbiota is associated …
Cervical cancer is the most common gynecological cancer in women worldwide. Human papillomavirus (HPV) is required but not sufficient for developing cervical cancer. HPV E6 and E7 proteins are able to directly interact with certain nuclear …
The large tumor suppressor homolog 2 (LATS2), one of the central regulators of the Hippo/MST signaling pathway, plays an inhibitory role in ovarian function and different organ development and growth in mammals. However, the exact roles and…
PurposeThis study assessed the predictive value of the preoperative systemic immune-inflammatory index (SII) for lymph node metastasis (LNM) in endometrial cancer (EC) patients.MethodsWe retrospectively included 392 EC patients between Janu…
Bone marrow-derived cells engraft to the uterine endometrium and contribute to endometriosis. This study sought to further confirm that estrogen can promote the migration of bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells (BMSCs) and to investigate the …
HIFU showed a safe and effective profile as a therapeutic management option for patients with adenomyosis. In comparison with LE, HIFU treatment achieved better postoperative reproductive outcomes. HIFU treatment should be encouraged and im…
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…
The purpose of the present study was to evaluate the diagnostic role of CRP in ovarian cancer and to assess whether CRP can be combined with tumor markers to enhance the diagnostic efficacy toward ovarian cancer. Area under the curve, sensi…
BackgroundWhile single embryo transfer (SET) is widely advocated, double embryo transfer (DET) remains preferable in clinical practice to improve IVF success rate, especially in poor prognosis patients with only poor quality embryos (PQEs) …
Aims/introductionTo evaluate gestational weight gain (GWG) in the first and second trimester as a risk factor for gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM) among women pregnant with singletons.Materials and methodsThis was a cohort study of women…
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…
ObjectivesTo evaluate the effect of dyslipidemia on the incidence of moderate and severe Ovarian hyperstimulation syndrome (OHSS) in the duration of assisted reproduction technique (ART).MethodsThe study included 233 moderate and severe OHS…
ObjectiveTo seek the clinical significance and regulatory mechanism of miR-135a and Rho-associated protein kinase 1 (ROCK1) in non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC).MethodsNSCLC cells were purchased, and miR-135a-mimics, miR-135a-inhibitor, mi…
BackgroundThe primary aim of the study is to report cases of monozygotic dichorionic-diamniotic (DC-DA) pregnancies after single frozen-thawed blastocyst transfer.MethodsThis is a retrospective case series. All single frozen-thawed blastocy…
BACKGROUND: Ovarian endometrioma (EM) lesions not only have overwhelmed the amount of infiltrating immune cells but also display immunosuppressive phenotype. The close relationship between neutrophils and the pathogenesis of endometriosis h…
Metabolic profile of follicular fluid (FF) has been investigated to look for biomarkers for oocyte quality. Resolvin E1 (RvE1), a potent pro-resolving mediator, was reported to have protective action in cell function. The study aimed to exa…
BackgroundEstradiol (E2 ) is an important hormone in women. Changes of serum E2 levels may affect the endometrial receptivity for embryo implantation and thus affect pregnancy outcomes. This study was to assess the association between serum…
BackgroundIrritable bowel syndrome (IBS) is one of the most common functional gastrointestinal disorders characterized by recurrent abdominal pain associated with defecation or a change in bowel habits. Leading to significant negative effec…
Background: Tripterygium wilfordii Hook F can cause adverse effects (AEs) in clinical application and may be harmful to human health. This study aim to summarize the AEs caused by T. wilfordii tgpolyglycoside (TWP), the most common preparat…
A large number of menopausal women report sleep disturbances along with psychological, somatic and urogenital menopausal symptoms. The aim of this study was to evaluate the efficacy of menopausal hormonal therapy (MHT) in improving subjecti…
BACKGROUND: Previous work demonstrated that there are numerous miRNAs in human follicular fluids, some of which are associated with reproductive diseases. In the current study, we sought to determine whether microRNAs (miRNAs) in the follic…
Rationale: Abnormal Wnt/β-catenin signaling in the endometrium can lead to both embryo implantation failure and severe pathogenic changes of the endometrium such as endometrial cancer and endometriosis. However, how Wnt/β-catenin signaling …
BackgroundThe effect of maternal weights on the risk of iron deficiency anemia (IDA) during pregnancy remains unclear. The study aimed to investigate the association between maternal weight indicators and IDA during pregnancy.MethodsWe cond…
BackgroundThe purpose of this study was to investigate the expression of different miRNAs in nonmetastatic and metastatic endometrial cancer Existing evidence indicates that there are many factors affecting the metastasis of endometrial can…
