BACKGROUND: Endometriosis is a common benign gynecological disorder with high risk of recurrence and adverse impact on fertility-sparing. This study aims to evaluate the effectiveness and safety of SanJieZhenTong Capsules, a traditional Chi…
Objective: Endometriosis is a benign gynecological disease characterized by distant metastasis. Previous studies have discovered abnormal numbers and function of immune cells in endometriotic lesions. We aimed to find potential biomarkers o…
Abstract Objective To investigate the expression of nuclear actor-k-gene binding(NF-κB) and immediate early response 3(IER3) in nuclear factor-activated B cells in ovarian endometrioid cysts. To analyze the correlation between the express…
Abstract Background Endometriosis is a common disease and was considered a chronic, debilitating disease affecting an estimated 1790 million women worldwide. Observational studies have shown a link between endometriosis and ovarian cancer. …
Background: Endometriosis (EMS), a typical endocrine immune disorder, associates with dramatically increased estrogen production and disorganized immune response in ectopic focus. Peritoneal regulatory T cells (Tregs) expansion in women wit…
Abstract Background: Endometriosis (EMS), an estrogen-dependent disease, is characterized by dysregulated inflammation and increased estrogen in ectopic lesions. However, the crosstalk and pathogenic mechanism of inflammation and estrogen h…
BACKGROUND: Endometriosis (EMS), an endocrine-related inflammatory disease, is characterized by estrogen and progesterone imbalance in ectopic lesions. However, its pathogenic mechanism has not been fully elucidated. While SCM-198 is the sy…
Abstract Objective: To compare the efficacy of the traditional Chinese medicine SanJieZhenTong (SJZT) capsules versus gonadotropin-releasing hormone analogs (GnRHa) or oral contraceptives (OCs) in the postoperative treatment of moderate-to-…
The relevance of miRNA- (miR-) 342 to endometriosis has been highlighted, while its function in regulating the malignant-like phenotype of endometrial stromal cells which demonstrate epigenetic abnormalities that alter expression of transcr…
BACKGROUND: Improved patient outcomes and satisfaction associated with enhanced recovery after surgery protocols have increasingly replaced traditional perioperative anesthesia care. Fast-track surgery pathways have been extensively validat…
PURPOSE: To explore the mechanism of levonorgestrel (LNG)-ameliorating adenomyosis through long non-coding RNA H19 (lncRNA H19)/miR-17/Toll-like receptor 4 (TLR4) pathway. PATIENTS AND METHODS: A total of 71 cases of adenomyosis and 54 case…
Objective To investigate the protective effect of laparoscopic water separation and removal combined with suture hemostasis on ovarian reserve function after bilateral ovarian endometriotic cyst (OEC) stripping. Methods From January …
PurposeTo explore the trends of oocyte and pregnancy outcomes over the ovulation trigger-OPU (oocyte pickup) time interval in four mainly used COH protocols.MethodsThis retrospective study was conducted between January 2013 and July 2018. T…
Pain is the most pronounced complaint of women with endometriosis, however the underlying mechanism is still poorly understood. In the present study, the authors evaluate the effect of transient receptor potential vanilloid type 1 (TRPV1) o…
Brain-derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF) is a member of the neurotrophin growth factors family. Recent studies indicated that the level of BDNF in follicular fluid is a marker for oocyte quality and infertility. Here, we intend to further i…
Objective: To study the correlation of matrix metalloproteinase expression and oxidative \nstress in ectopic endometrial tissue with pelvic adhesion and pelvic pain in patients \nwith endometriosis (EMs). Methods: A total of 67 patients wit…
Objective. To evaluate the effect of GuiXiong Xiaoyi Wan (GXXYW) on the development of endometriosis in a rat model. Methods. Sprague-Dawley rats with surgically induced endometriosis were randomly treated with low-dose GXXYW, high-dose GXX…
OBJECTIVE: To clarify the clinicopathological features of ovarian clear cell carcinoma derived from endometriotic cyst (EC-OCCC). METHODS: Totally 54 cases of EC-OCCC were recruited in the current retrospective study. The relation between a…
which permits unrestricted use, distribution, and reproduction in any medium, provided the original work is properly cited. Objective. To evaluate the effect of GuiXiong Xiaoyi Wan (GXXYW) on the development of endometriosis in a rat model.…
Vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) receptor-2 plays an essential role in angiogenesis, and it also expressed in the glandular epithelium and stromal cells of ectopic endometrium. Cediranib is a protein tyrosine kinase inhibitor that …
It has reported that interleukin-22 (IL-22) promotes the invasion of tumor cells. IL-22 in the endometriotic milieu stimulates the proliferation of human endometrial stromal cells (ESCs). The present study aimed to elucidate whether and how…
The ectopic endometrial tissues lining the lumen of the fallopian tubes are currently defined as either "endometrial colonization" or "endometriosis" on the basis of their location within or beyond the isthmic portion of the fallopian tubes…
