Acute pancreatitis (AP) is a common systemic inflammatory disease resulting from the activation of trypsinogen by various incentives in ICU. The annual incidence rate is approximately 30 out of 100,000. Some patients may progress to severe …

The application of immune checkpoint inhibitor (ICI) using monoclonal antibodies has brought about a profound transformation in the clinical outcomes for patients grappling with advanced gastric cancer (GC). Nonetheless, despite these achie…

The most common epigenetic modification of messenger RNAs (mRNAs) is N6-methyladenosine (m6A), which is mainly located near the 3' untranslated region of mRNAs, near the stop codons, and within internal exons. The biological effect of m6A i…

BACKGROUND: Adenomyosis is a commonly observed benign gynecological disease that affects the quality of life and social psychology of women of childbearing age. However, because of the unknown etiology and incidence of adenomyosis, its path…

Background The association between menstrual cycle characteristics and cardiovascular outcomes remains unclear. This study was undertaken to evaluate whether menstrual cycle regularity and length throughout the life course are associated wi…

Pelvic organ prolapse (POP) is a conventional gynecological condition and the mechanism is not entirely clear. Although an increasing number of studies revealed that long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs) have essential functions in many diseases, …

BACKGROUND: Surgery in elder patients with intermural fibroids delays pregnancy, and GnRH-a can shrink uterine fibroids to a certain extent; therefore, for geriatric patients with fibroids, determining whether GnRH-a pretreatment before fro…

INTRODUCTION: Stage IB (deep myometrial invasion) high-grade endometrioid adenocarcinoma (EA), regardless of LVSI status, is classified into high-intermediate risk groups, requiring surgical lymph node staging. Intraoperative frozen section…

BACKGROUND: Endometriosis is a common and complex syndrome characterized by the presence of endometrial-like tissue outside the uterus. Chinese medicine has been recently found to show good efficacy in treating endometriosis. Our previous r…

The sirtuin family, a group of NAD+-dependent class 3 histone deacetylases (HDACs), was extensively studied initially as a group of longevity genes that are activated in caloric restriction and act in concert with nicotinamide adenine dinuc…

BackgroundThe debate over the impact of vitamin D in assisted reproduction continues. The purpose of our study was to assess embryo quality and pregnancy outcomes among groups with different levels of vitamin D after the first in vitro fert…

Abstract Background Adenomyosis is a commonly observed benign gynecological disease that affects the quality of life and social psychology of women of childbearing age. However, because of the unknown etiology and incidence of adenomyosis…

Appropriate clinical management of adnexal masses requires a detailed diagnosis. We retrospectively collected ultrasound images of 1559 cases from the first Center of Chinese PLA General Hospital and developed a fully automatic deep learnin…

OBJECTIVE: To observe the effect of herbal-cake-separated moxibustion on changes of vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF)/VEGF receptor(VEGFR) in endometriosis (EMs) model rats, so as to analyze the regulatory mechanism of herbal-cake-s…

Chronic pancreatitis (CP) is a chronic progressive inflammatory disease of the pancreas, caused by multiple factors and accompanied by irreversible impairment of pancreatic internal and external secretory functions. Pathologically, atrophy …

BACKGROUND: To determine differences in endometrial cavity anteroposterior diameter, thickness, volume, and diameter lines of uterine body and thickness, and volume of upper, middle, and lower regions of the endometrium in infertile women u…

The immune response is associated with the progression and prognosis of epithelial ovarian cancer (EOC). However, the roles of infiltrated immune cells and immune-related genes (IRGs) in EOC have not been reported comprehensively. In the cu…

Endometriosis（EM）is a non-cancerous and intractable disease in clinic due to the ambiguity of its etiology and mechanism. Surgical removal of the lesions is more efficient method for EM treatment compared with pharmacological intervention. …

BACKGROUND: To summarize our experience with the Boari flap-psoas hitch and compare the indications, perioperative data and outcomes between open and laparoscopic procedures. METHODS: This study retrospectively reviewed 35 patients with co…

Metastasis-associated lung adenocarcinoma transcript 1 (MALAT1), a known long noncoding RNA, was reported to play a crucial role in follicular growth and ovarian disease. However, the physiological function of MALAT1 in mouse granulosa cell…

Endometriosis is a common reproductive disorder in women, with a global prevalence of 10-15%. Long noncoding RNAs (lncRNAs) are critical to gene transcription, cell cycle modulation and immune response. The lncRNA metastasis-associated lung…

Objective: This study aims to retrospectively analyze the clinical curative effects of surgery, uterine artery embolization (UAE), and high-intensity focused ultrasound (HIFU) in order to provide the theory and evidences for selecting the o…

Background WT1 is a transcription factor with versatile cellular functions in embryonic development, maintenance of adult tissue functions and regenerations. WT1 is known to be regulated by progesterone and it is abundantly expressed in en…

A 61-year-old Chinese man with a history of tuberculosis was found to have a large mass in the left lower lobe and multiple ground-glass nodules (GGNs) on lung computed tomography (CT). Post-operative pathology showed lung squamous carcinom…
