BACKGROUND: To evaluate the efficacy of modified uterine stent in the treatment of mild-to-moderate intrauterine adhesions and explore the relative indicators affecting prognosis prediction. METHODS: A total of 115 patients with mild-to-mo…
BACKGROUND: Placenta accreta spectrum disorders (PAS) are a severe complication characterized by abnormal trophoblast invasion into the myometrium. The underlying mechanisms of PAS involve a complex interplay of various cell types and molec…
Limited understanding exists regarding how aging impacts the cellular and molecular aspects of the human ovary. This study combines single-cell RNA sequencing and spatial transcriptomics to systematically characterize human ovarian aging. S…
Long non-coding RNAs play critical roles in the development of lung cancer by functioning as tumor suppressors or oncogenes. Changes in the expression of LINC01279 have been associated with cell differentiation and human diseases. However, …
Polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) is a prevalent endocrine and metabolic disorder affecting 6-20% of women of childbearing age worldwide. Immune cell imbalance and dysregulation of inflammatory factors can lead to systematic low-grade chroni…
Endometriosis seriously affects 6-10 % of reproductive women globally and poses significant clinical challenges. The process of ectopic endometrial cell colonization shares similarities with cancer, and a dysfunctional immune microenvironme…
LncRNAs are highly implicated in oxidative stress (OS) during the growth of mammalian follicles. TAK1 binding protein 2 gene (TAB2) has been suggested to involve in the normal apoptosis and proliferation of granulosa cells (GCs), the main s…
OBJECTIVE: This study aims to evaluate the correlation and diagnostic value of maternal serum placental markers: pregnancy-associated plasma protein-A (PAPP-A), free beta human chorionic gonadotropin (free β-hCG), and alpha fetoprotein (AFP…
BACKGROUND: Abnormal uterine bleeding (AUB) is a common gynecological issue during reproductive years. Researches on how dietary diversity and patterns influence AUB in Chinese university students are limited, with some studies not clearly …
OBJECTIVES: Endometriosis (EM), a prevalent estrogen-dependent inflammatory disorder affecting women of reproductive age, is characterized by the presence of endometrial-like tissue outside the uterus, resulting in pelvic scarring, pain, an…
BACKGROUND: The global prevalence of infertility is 9%, with male factors potentially accounting for 40% to 60% of cases. Conventional treatments can be ineffective, invasive, costly, and linked to adverse effects and high risks. Previous s…
OBJECTIVE: This study was conducted to determine the influence of the number of CD138+ cells in the proliferative endometrium on pregnancy outcomes. METHODS: This retrospective cohort study was conducted from January to August 2018. A tota…
Available evidence demonstrates that individuals with body-image disturbance (BID) are prone to suffer from depression. This systematic review provides, to our knowledge, the first synthesis of the psychological mechanism of the association…
Regulated cell death (RCD) plays a fundamental role in placental development and tissue homeostasis. Placental development relies upon effective implantation and invasion of the maternal decidua by the trophoblast and an immune tolerant env…
Mifepristone, a progesterone receptor antagonist, was initially used to terminate early pregnancy. As scientific research advanced, it emerged to be effective in the treatment of various tumors and tumor-like conditions such as endometriosi…
BACKGROUND: Assisted reproductive technology (ART) is the most effective method to treat infertility and the pathogenesis of implantation failure after in vitro fertilization-embryo transfer (IVF-ET) is a challenging filed in infertility. M…
PURPOSE: To analyze the clinical characteristics of abdominal pregnancy, and to explore the diagnosis and prognosis of different treatment methods. METHODS: The cases of patients with abdominal pregnancy admitted to Peking Union Medical Co…
BACKGROUND: T-box transcription factor 3(TBX3) is a transcription factor that can regulate cell proliferation, apoptosis, invasion, and migration in different tumor cells; however, its role in adenomyosis (ADM) has not been previously studi…
Abstract Background TBX3 is a transcription factor that can regulate cell proliferation, apoptosis, invasion, and migration in different tumor cells; however, its role in adenomyosis (ADM) has not been previously studied. Some of ADM’s path…
Acute pancreatitis (AP)‑associated lung injury (ALI) is a critical complication of AP. Adropin is a regulatory protein of immune metabolism. The present study aimed to explore the immunomodulatory effects of adropin on AP‑ALI. For this purp…
BACKGROUND: Many women, and other females, with epithelial ovarian cancer (EOC) develop resistance to conventional chemotherapy drugs. Drugs that inhibit angiogenesis (development of new blood vessels), essential for tumour growth, control …
OBJECTIVE: This study aimed to clarify the effect of antioxidant vitamins supplementation on endometriosis-related pain. METHODS: A systematic search of PubMed, Web of Science, Cochrane Library, Scopus, and China National Knowledge Infrast…
Background: Family members of Apolipoprotein B mRNA-editing enzyme catalytic 3 (APOBEC3) play critical roles in cancer evolution and development. However, the role of APOBEC3A in cervical cancer remains to be clarified. Methods: We used bio…
ETHNOPHARMACOLOGICAL RELEVANCE: Shrub kava has long been grown and utilized, primarily in the South Pacific region, for ceremonial, religious, and social occasions. It has been used as a pain reliever and muscle relaxant in medicinal practi…
Abstract Objective Endometriosis is a prevalent reproductive disorder that affects a significant number of women globally. Cathepsins, which are lysosomal cysteine proteases, contribute to several physiological and pathological processes, i…
