The methyltransferase-like (METTL) family members are the central ‘writers’ of epitranscriptome modifications, catalyzing N6-methyladenosine (m6A), N7-methylguanosine (m7G), 3-methylcytosine (m3C) and other chemical markers that modify DNA,…
OBJECTIVE: To evaluate the current treatment status and management deficiencies of adenomyosis in Luzhou, China. MATERIALS AND METHODS: A small-scale observational cross-sectional study of patients whose imaging suggests adenomyosis from J…
OBJECTIVE: The aim of this study was to enhance the precision of categorization of endometrial lesions in ultrasound images via a data enhancement framework based on deep learning (DL), through addressing diagnostic accuracy challenges, con…
OBJECTIVE: To report the long-term re-intervention of patients with uterine fibroids after ultrasound-guided high-intensity focused ultrasound (USgHIFU) ablation and to analyse the influencing factors of re-intervention in patients in the N…
Oxidative stress disturbs the balance between the production of reactive oxygen species (ROS) and the detoxification biological process. It plays an important role in the development and progression of many chronic diseases. Upon exposure t…
SEM) group was duplicated from the second panel of 5B (SCEA) group.Additionally, the third panel of 5B (SCEA group) was partially duplicated from the first panel of 5C (SCEB group).The original Figure 5 and accompanying legend appear below.
RationaleCervical gastric-type adenocarcinoma shows gastric differentiation, and the tumor cell morphology appears benign and unrelated to human papillomavirus, which makes cervical gastric-type adenocarcinoma highly susceptible to misdiagn…
OBJECTIVE: This study aimed to evaluate the effectiveness and safety of coils plus glue (CPG) in slope embankment technology vs coils plus sclerosant (CPS) in treating reflux-type pelvic venous disorders. METHODS: The analysis included pat…
The study aims to identify potential drug targets for endometrial cancer (EC) subtypes through a Mendelian randomization (MR) approach, assessing their clinical relevance. We utilized genetic instruments for 4,907 plasma proteins from the d…
Polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) is the most common and multifactorial endocrine disease among women of reproductive age. Aberrant folliculogenesis is a common pathological characteristic of PCOS, but the underlying molecular mechanism rema…
INTRODUCTION: Macranthoidin B is one of the primary and unique triterpenoid saponin metabolites from Lonicera macranthoides Hand. -Mazz, which is used to treat endometriosis (EMS) in traditional Chinese medicine. However, the effect of macr…
Endometriosis (EMs) is an inflammatory, estrogen-dependent disease characterized by the growth of endometrial-like tissue outside the uterus. Despite many efforts to develop effective treatment regimens, the overall response to halting EMs …
Abstract Objectives To inform dysmenorrhea for exploring the possible pathogenesis of adenomyosis based on MRI classification criteria and serum CA125. Methods Patients before focused ultrasound ablation surgery were categorized into …
BACKGROUND AND AIMS: Hepatic fibrosis (HF) is a critical step in the progression of hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). Gene associated with retinoid-IFN-induced mortality 19 (GRIM19), an essential component of mitochondrial respiratory chain c…
The Mucin (MUC) family, a range of highly glycosylated macromolecules, is ubiquitously expressed in mammalian epithelial cells. Such molecules are pivotal in establishing protective mucosal barriers, serving as defenses against pathogenic a…
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 …
Diseases of the female reproductive system, especially malignant tumors, pose a serious threat to women's health worldwide. One of the key factors limiting research progress in this area is the lack of representative models. Organoid techno…
BACKGROUND: Chronic endometritis (CE), frequently asymptomatic, is associated with female infertility. Fallopian tube obstruction (FTO) is also one of the factors contributing to female infertility. More than 90% of cases of proximal FTO ca…
There is limited research on risk factors for chronic endometritis regarding reproductive history and clinical symptoms. Thus, this nested case-control study identified risk factors for chronic endometritis in women who have undergone hyste…
BACKGROUND: This study investigates the differences in the cost, time, pre-operative education and patient satisfaction levels of patients requiring a second hysteroscopic surgery using a full-service model of remote preoperative assessment…
The vaginal microbiome plays an essential role in the reproductive health of human females. As infertility increases worldwide, understanding the roles that the vaginal microbiome may have in infertility and in vitro fertilization (IVF) tre…
BACKGROUND: To develop the preoperative prediction of ovarian lesions using regression-based statistics analyses and machine learning methods based on multiple serological biomarkers in China. METHODS: 1137 patients with ovarian lesions in…
BACKGROUND: Declining oocyte quality in women with advanced age has been a major impediment to assisted reproductive treatments' (ART) success rate. However, aging is often accompanied by a diminished ovarian reserve (DOR). Cumulus cells (C…
BackgroundTuberculosis (TB), a multisystemic disease with protean presentation, remains a major global health problem. Although concurrent pulmonary tuberculosis (PTB) and extrapulmonary tuberculosis (EPTB) cases are commonly observed clini…
OBJECTIVES: The aim of this study was to determine whether, on the day of human chorionic gonadotropin (hCG) injection, the progesterone to number of mature oocytes index (PMOI) can be used alone or together with other parameters in a fresh…
