INTRODUCTION AND HYPOTHESIS: The objective was to investigate the correlation between endogenous vaginal microecological alterations and female pelvic organ prolapse (POP). METHODS: Patients who underwent vaginal hysterectomy were retrospe…
INTRODUCTION: Nucleotide-binding domain (NOD)-like receptors (NLRs) are expressed in the endometrium, and involved in modulating the female innate immune responses. There are conceptus-endometrial interactions during pregnancy, which ensure…
Endometrial large cell neuroendocrine carcinoma (LCNEC) is a highly malignant tumor that presents with neuroendocrine function. It is difficult to diagnose at an early stage. Moreover, the diagnosis depends on the pathological and immunohis…
OBJECTIVES: We aimed to explore the epidemiological characteristics of suspected adenomyosis within a physical examination population in China. DESIGN: A retrospective, nested case-control study; we matched healthy people and those with po…
BACKGROUND: Endometrial carcinoma (EC) is a prevalent gynecological malignancy, necessitating accurate preoperative staging for effective treatment planning. This study explores the application value of multi-parameter MRI in diagnosing and…
The gut microbiota has been implicated in the context of sexual maturation during puberty, with discernible differences in its composition before and after this critical developmental stage. Notably, there has been a global rise in the prev…
ETHNOPHARMACOLOGICAL RELEVANCE: Gynecological disorders have the characteristics of high incidence and recurrence rate, which sorely affects female's health. Since ancient times, traditional Chinese medicine (TCM), especially tonic medicine…
Linear endoscopic ultrasonography (EUS) has been extensively utilized as a novel diagnostic and therapeutic modality across various fields. However, there have been relatively few studies focusing on lower gastrointestinal lesions. The aim …
Autophagy is an evolutionarily conserved cellular recycling process that maintains cellular homeostasis. Despite extensive research in endocrine contexts, the role of autophagy in ovarian and testicular steroidogenesis remains elusive. The …
Endometriosis is a prevalent and chronic inflammatory gynecologic disorder affecting approximately 6-10% of women globally, and has been associated with an increased risk of cancer. Nevertheless, previous studies have been hindered by metho…
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE: While there is evidence that gut microbiota (GM) and blood metabolites are associated with ovarian cancer (OC), the precise mechanisms underlying this relationship are still unclear. This study used Mendelian randomi…
Multiple primary malignant neoplasms are a rare gynecologic malignancy; particularly, cases originating from the heterologous organs, such as the ovary and cervix. Here, we report a case of two primary malignant neoplasms in a patient who h…
BACKGROUND: Endometriosis (EMS) is acknowledged as a risk factor for the development of endometrial cancer (EC), although the precise molecular mechanisms that underpin this association have yet to be fully elucidated. The primary objective…
BACKGROUND: To identify incidence and underlying risk factors for unsuspected placenta accreta spectrum (PAS) and compare the maternal outcomes between suspected and unsuspected cases in three large academic referral centers. METHODS: A re…
STUDY QUESTION: Which independent factors influence ICSI outcomes in patients with complete azoospermia factor c (AZFc) microdeletions? SUMMARY ANSWER: In patients with complete AZFc microdeletions, the sperm source, male LH, the type of i…
Endometriosis is a prevalent gynecological condition characterized by chronic pelvic pain, dysmenorrhea, and infertility, affecting ≈176 million women of reproductive age worldwide. Current treatments, including pharmacological and surgical…

OBJECTIVE: To explore the active substances and targets of Danbie Capsules in Endometriosis therapy. METHODS: This study was conducted through TCMSP and published literature screened and obtained 183 active substances of Danbie Capsules, c…
Abnormal trophoblast self-renewal and differentiation during early gestation is the major cause of miscarriage, yet the underlying regulatory mechanisms remain elusive. Here, we show that trophoblast specific deletion of Kat8, a MYST family…
中肾样腺癌是一种新近报道的罕见女性生殖系统肿瘤,因其组织学特点、免疫表型及分子改变均类似于起源于中肾管残件的宫颈中肾腺癌而得名,但是中肾样腺癌多发生于缺乏中肾管残件的子宫体和卵巢。因卵巢中肾样腺癌往往与子宫内膜异位症或苗勒管肿瘤相关而被认为其可能起源于苗勒管。中肾样腺癌多样性的组织结构与多种肿瘤形态存在交叉,极易误诊。现报道1例曾被误诊为尿路上皮癌的膀胱中肾样腺癌。本文将阐述其临床病理特征及鉴别诊断,并对中肾样腺癌起源加以探讨,以提高在临床诊疗过程中对该疾病的认识,避免漏诊误…
Mullerian adenosarcoma is rare, usually found in the uterine corpus and rarely in the cervix. Adenosarcoma that grows diffusely in the uterine cavity and the cervical canal is even rarer without symptoms. Herein, we report a rare case of mu…
BACKGROUND: Endometriosis, characterized by the presence of active endometrial-like tissues outside the uterus, causes symptoms like dysmenorrhea and infertility due to the fibrosis of endometrial cells, which involves excessive deposition …
Endometrial cancer (ECs) stands as one of the three major malignancies impacting females globally, with its incidence steadily increasing. ECs can be categorized into two types based on their clinicopathological features. Type I ECs typical…
Non-communicable diseases (NCDs), including cardiovascular diseases, cancer, metabolic diseases, and skeletal diseases, pose significant challenges to public health worldwide. The complex pathogenesis of these diseases is closely linked to …
BACKGROUND: Simnotrelvir is an oral 3-chymotrypsin-like protease inhibitor that has been found to have in vitro activity against severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) and potential efficacy in a phase 1B trial. METHO…
