Abstract BackgroundThe immune mechanism was shown to be involved in the development of adenomyosis. The current study aims to evaluate the expression of immune checkpoint B7-H2, B7-H3, B7-H4 and PD-L2 in adenomyosis and to explore the effec…
OBJECTIVES: Plasma microRNAs are considered potential diagnostic biomarkers for endometriosis. Increasing evidence has shown that a huge number of miRNAs are abnormally expressed in endometriosis plasma and play irreplaceable roles in diagn…
BACKGROUND: This cross-sectional study aimed to evaluate the levels of tumor necrosis factor-alpha (TNF-ɑ), interleukin-8 (IL-8), interleukin-6 (IL-6), and transforming growth factor-beta 1 (TGF-β1) in patients with primary and secondary tu…
BACKGROUND: Previous cesarean scar defect (PCSD) is a gynecological disease that can cause bleeding after intercourse, prolonging menstrual period, intermenstrual bleeding, dysmenorrhea, and even lead to infertility. Chinese herbal medicine…
OBJECTIVE: We aimed to assess whether endometrial cancer (EC) can be detected in shed DNA collected with vaginal tampon by analyzing copy number, methylation markers, and mutations. METHODS: Tampons were collected prior to hysterectomy fro…
OBJECTIVE: This study aimed to find out the regulatory mechanism of miR-194-5p targeting STAT1/mTOR signaling pathway on the biological characteristics of endometrial epithelium cells from mice with endometriosis (EMs). METHODS: Mouse mode…
Cryoablation, as a well-characterized technology, has multifarious clinical applications. But few are reported on ureteral endometriosis. Thus, we examined the feasibility and safety of cryotherapy with a novel balloon cryoprobe on ureter i…
BACKGROUND: Chronic pelvic inflammatory disease (CPID) is one of common diseases of department of gynaecology, point to female inside genital and circumferential organization to suffer from infection of all sorts of pathogenic bacteria and …
INTRODUCTION: The aim of this study was to screen the leading compounds of natural origin with anti-angiogenic potential and to investigate their anti-angiogenic mechanism preliminarily. MATERIALS AND METHODS: An initial screening of 240 c…
BACKGROUND: GAS5 contains a hormone response element that can induce cell apoptosis in breast cancer. It is known that cell apoptosis and hormone response play crucial roles in polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS), indicating the potential invo…
The enhanced migratory ability of endometrial stromal cells (ESCs) is a key factor in the formation of functional endometrium‑like tissues outside the uterine cavity during endometriosis (EMS). Although accumulating evidence has suggested t…
Abstract BackgroundPlasma microRNAs are considered to be potential diagnostic biomarkers for endometriosis. Increasing evidence has shown that a huge amount of miRNAs are abnormally expressed in endometriosis plasma and play irreplaceable r…
子宫内膜异位症是一种常见的妇科疾病,发生在约10%的生育期妇女。通常局限于盆腔,卵巢最常见,但异位组织有时也可生长在其他部位,如剖宫产术后的腹部瘢痕、消化道、泌尿生殖道,甚至胸腔和肺。真正发生在肺实质的子宫内膜异位症却少见。肺子宫内膜异位症可导致月经期咯血,通常在症状出现后几个月后才能确诊。组织学特征是诊断的关键。该文报道1例因消化系统症状入院,影像学检查发现肺结节影,而无任何呼吸系统症状的肺子宫内膜异位症,探讨其临床病理特征,以提高对该疾病的认识。.
Abstract Background: Endometriosis is a complex disease in the field of gynecology that has certain limitations for its interim treatment. Resveratrol has been recently used for the treatment of endometriosis in experimental and clinical s…
Recently, a growing body of evidence has suggested that abnormal ovarian angiogenesis, secondary to the imbalance between various angiogenic markers, is involved in the pathogenesis of PCOS, and this has led to the use of various interventi…
BACKGROUND: Incarceration of the gravid uterus is a rare obstetric disorder that contributes to pregnancy-related complications. To understand its clinical characteristics and managements, we have reviewed the etiology, risk factors, clinic…
Plasma microRNAs are considered to be potential diagnostic biomarkers for endometriosis. Increasing evidence has shown that a huge amount of miRNAs are abnormally expressed in endometriosis plasma and play irreplaceable roles in diagnosis. …
Objectives To identify factors predicting maternal sex steroid hormone concentrations in early pregnancy. Methods The Infant Development and the Environment Study recruited healthy pregnant women from academic medical centers in four US cit…
Immunologic disorder has been reported to promote the progression of endometriosis (EMT). It has been known that myeloid-derived suppressor cells (MDSCs) drive the progression of many types of diseases. Few studies have shown the relation b…
Chronic postsurgical pain (CPSP) occurs in up to 50% of individuals after surgeries and 32% after hysterectomy, leading to major adverse effects on quality of life and socioeconomic burden. Little is known about whether and how large-scale …
We aimed to validate the prognostic association of p16 expression in ovarian high-grade serous carcinomas (HGSC) and to explore it in other ovarian carcinoma histotypes. p16 protein expression was assessed by clinical-grade immunohistochemi…
BACKGROUND: Epidemiological studies have clarified the potential associations between regular aspirin use and cancers. However, it remains controversial on whether aspirin use decreases the risk of cancers risks. Therefore, we conducted an …
Epithelial-to-mesenchymal transition (EMT) is postulated to be a prerequisite for the establishment of endometriosis (EMS), a common reproductive disorder in women. Our previous studies have demonstrated the elevated expression of transmemb…
BACKGROUND This randomized, controlled trial was designed to assess whether acupuncture plus an oral administration of Chinese herbal medicine provides greater relief of symptoms than oral administration of Chinese herbal medicine alone for…
