Endo-periodontal lesions (EPLs) involve both the periodontium and pulp tissue and have complicated etiologies and pathogenic mechanisms, including unique anatomical and microbiological characteristics and multiple contributing factors. This…

Acute pancreatitis (AP) is an inflammatory disease of the pancreas and a complex process involving multiple factors, with mitochondrial damage playing a crucial role. Mitochondrial dysfunction is now considered a key driver in the developme…

RESEARCH QUESTION: Does LncRNA BANCR promote the malignant transformation of endometriosis by activating the miR-612/CPNE3 pathway? DESIGN: The expression patterns of BANCR, miR-612 and CPNE3 in normal endometrium, eutopic endometrium from…

Currently, the precise and detailed anatomical data of the normal uterus, especially the myometrium thickness in various parts of the uterus, are lacking. This study aims to provide normal references for uterine size in healthy reproductive…

Cervical cancer is the most common cancer among women worldwide. The diagnosis and classification of cancer are extremely important, as it influences the optimal treatment and length of survival. The objective was to develop and validate a …

(1) Background: Ovarian cancer (OC) and Parkinson's disease (PD) represent a huge public health burden. The relationship of these two diseases is suggested in the literature while not fully understood. To better understand this relationship…

The retrotransposon known as long interspersed nuclear element-1 (LINE-1), which is currently the sole autonomously mobile transposon in the human genome, can result in insertional mutations, chromosomal rearrangements, and genomic instabil…

The motility of the gallbladder (GB) involves the storage, concentration and delivery of bile. GB motor functions are controlled by multiple complex factors, such as extrinsic and intrinsic innervation, humoral factors and neuropeptides. GB…

OBJECTIVES: The aim of this study is to evaluate the expression of syntaxin 6 (STX6) in epithelial ovarian cancer (EOC) and assess the effects of STX6 on the prognosis of patient. METHODS: Using information from the Kaplan-Meier Plotter da…

The incidence and prevalence of inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) have been increasing globally and progressively in recent decades. Barley leaf (BL) is a nutritional supplement that is shown to have health-promoting effects on intestinal ho…

Distal vaginal atresia is a rare abnormality of female reproductive tract in which the vagina is closed or absent. The distal vagina may be replaced by fibrous tissue and the condition is often not diagnosed until a girl fails to begin havi…

Acute pancreatitis (AP) is an inflammatory disease of the pancreas. A growing number of studies have shown that long noncoding RNAs (lncRNAs) play an important role in AP progression. Here, we aimed to elucidate the role of Small Nucleolar …

BACKGROUND: To evaluate the diagnostic value of adding human epididymis protein 4 (HE4), cancer antigen 125 (CA125) and risk of malignancy algorithm (ROMA) to ultrasound for detecting ovarian cancer in patients with a pelvic mass. METHODS:…

PURPOSE: To evaluate the effect of elevated sperm DNA fragmentation index (DFI) on fresh and frozen embryo transfer cycles. METHODS: A retrospective study was performed with 549 fresh embryo transfer cycles and 1340 frozen embryo transfer …

BACKGROUND: To explore the methylation profiles in cumulus cells (CCs) of women undergoing intracytoplasmic sperm injection-in vitro fertilization (ICSI-IVF) and establish a prediction model of pregnancy outcomes using machine learning appr…

Fatty acids play important roles in maintaining ovarian steroidogenesis and endometrial receptivity. Porcine primary ovarian granulosa cells (PGCs) and endometrial epithelial cells (PEECs) were treated with or without medium- and short-chai…

Appendiceal neoplasms are rare, occurring in <1.4% of all appendicectomy specimens. Carcinoid tumours and adenocarcinomas comprise the majority of cases, however, lymphomas or sarcomas may also arise within the appendix. Appendiceal leiomyo…

BACKGROUND: To examine differences in the maternal characteristics and pregnancy outcomes of Chinese women with various causes of infertility who underwent in vitro fertilization (IVF) with embryonic cryopreservation treatment. METHODS: Ca…

BACKGROUND: Psychological distress may exert a negative influence on reproductive function of couples at reproductive age. Couples seeking assisted reproductive technology (ART) treatment may have a higher prevalence of psychological distre…

BACKGROUND: Primary fallopian tube carcinoma (PFTC) is a malignant tumor of the female genital tract that mostly presents intraperitoneal dissemination in clinical practice. The incidence of upper anterior mediastinal metastasis in PFTCs is…

Rationale: Synovial inflammation is one of the main pathological features of rheumatoid arthritis (RA) and is a key factor leading to the progression of RA. Understanding the regulatory mechanism of synovial inflammation is crucial for the …

BACKGROUND: Endometrial cancer is the most common gynecologic malignancy worldwide. Polymorphisms in MALAT1 have been demonstrated to play critical roles in cancer. However, the roles of MALAT1 polymorphisms in the etiology of endometrial c…

INTRODUCTION: Intravenous leiomyomatosis (IVL) is currently regarded as a special variant of the common uterine leiomyoma (LM). Though IVL shows a similar histological morphology to LM, IVL is characterized by unique intravenous growth patt…
