RESEARCH QUESTION: Does ferroptosis resistance occur in patients with endometriosis, and can it be used as an indicator for diagnosis? DESIGN: Six datasets including 164 expression arrays from endometriosis studies were selected from the N…
BACKGROUND: In a previous study, we reported that amnion promotes endometrial cell growth by regulating cytokines. In this study, hierarchical cluster analysis enabled the evaluation of cytokine expression changes after amnion treatment to …
OBJECTIVE: Ovarian cancer (OC) is an intractable gynecological tumor, and frequent recurrence is experienced within a few years even after the complete eradication of tumor tissues by radical resection and neo-adjuvant chemotherapies. The c…
Estrogen therapy is widely used as a supplementary treatment after hysteroscopy for female infertility patients owing to its protective function that improves endometrial regeneration and menstruation, inhibits recurrent adhesions, and impr…
Earlier literature suggests that ovarian preservation in young premenopausal clinical stage I endometrioid endometrial carcinoma patients does not negatively impact prognosis. The main purpose of this study was to clarify the incidence of o…
Introduction: This study aimed to evaluate whether endometriosis could disturb the mental health and health-related quality of life (HRQoL) of patients and to provide a new prospective for further treatment of endometriosis. Methods: A comp…
BACKGROUND: The denomyotic junctional zone (JZ) plays an important role in the pathogenesis of adenomyosis. Proliferating cell nuclear antigen (PCNA) is an important nuclear marker of cell proliferation. This study aimed to evaluate the eff…
BACKGROUND: Decidualization is critical for embryo implantation and the success of pregnancy; however, the mechanisms underlying this process remain largely unknown. MATERIALS AND METHODS: In the present study, RNA sequencing was used to d…
RESEARCH QUESTION: Does connective tissue growth factor (CTGF) expression relate to adenomyotic fibrosis and determine the correlation between fibrosis with adenomyosis-associated dysmenorrhoea? DESIGN: Protein and mRNA expression of CTGF …
OBJECTIVE: The objective of the study was to synthesize the epidemiological findings for the associations between dysmenorrhea, including primary dysmenorrhea and endometriosis-associated dysmenorrhea and any chronic pain conditions, includ…
BACKGROUND: Cervical cancer is a frequent, common cancer in women, and causes high cancer-related deaths among women in our world. Accumulating studies provided an important evidence for long noncoding RNA (lncRNA) polymorphisms in the susc…
RESEARCH QUESTION: Is abnormal gene module expression in the eutopic endometrium related to the occurrence of endometriosis? DESIGN: Nine datasets of normal and eutopic endometrium were searched and collected through the National Center fo…
BACKGROUND: Yuzhi Zhixue Granule (YZG) is a traditional Chinese patent medicine for treating excessive menstrual flow caused by ovulatory dysfunctional uterine bleeding (ODUB) accompanied by heat syndrome. However, the underlying molecular …
Object: Is it possible to use different progestins cotreatment with human menopausal gonadotrophin (hMG) in women with advanced endometriosis but normal ovulation during controlled ovarian hyperstimulation (COH) in vitro fertilization (IVF)…
PURPOSE: To analyze the potential prognostic factors of epithelial ovarian cancer (EOC) in women aged under 35 compared to those aged 60-79. METHODS: Cases were retrospectively obtained from SEER database. Clinical characteristics, such as…
MethodsAP was induced in Balb/C mice by ten hourly intraperitoneal injections of caerulein (100 μg/kg) and LPS (5 mg/kg). The MMP inhibitor, BB-94 (20 mg/kg) was intraperitoneally administered 30 min before AP induction. Pancreatitis was co…
Recent advances suggest the fallopian tube as the main anatomic site for high-grade ovarian or pelvic serous carcinoma (O/PSC). Many studies on the biologic role of tubal secretory cells in O/PSC development has been performed in the last d…
The anatomical positions of pelvic floor organs are maintained mainly by ligaments and muscles. Long-term excessive mechanical tension stimulation of pelvic floor tissue beyond the endurance of ligaments or muscles will lead to the occurren…
BACKGROUND: We elucidated the role of specific MicroRNAs (miRNAs) in the development of polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) and explained the changes in the proliferation of granulosa cells. Excised ovarian cortex specimens were collected for …
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE: Macrophage infiltration and activation is a critical step during acute pancreatitis (AP). We have shown that pancreas-specific D2 receptor signalling protects against AP severity. As it is unclear to what extent myel…
We investigated the role of oestrogen receptor 1 (ESR1) in regulating the [Ca2+]i concentration in the junctional zone (JZ) and its effect on adenomyosis. JZ smooth muscle cells (JZSMCs) were isolated from 17 control and 24 adenomyotic uter…
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…
This study means to investigate a combination of noninvasive methods in diagnosis of minimal or mild endometriosis expecting to narrow down the range of laparoscopic exploration for female infertility.It is a retrospective case control stud…
