STUDY QUESTION: What is the current landscape of randomized controlled trials (RCTs) evaluating stem cell-based therapies for women's reproductive diseases, and how effectively has preclinical research informed their clinical translation? …

BACKGROUND: Endometriosis (EMs) is a common condition that causes dysmenorrhea, chronic pelvic pain, and infertility, affecting millions of women worldwide. Despite the use of assisted reproductive technology, EMs patients often experience …

PURPOSE: Hydrosalpinx reduces the pregnancy outcomes of in vitro fertilization and embryo transfer (IVF-ET). Tubal occlusion has been shown to improve IVF-ET success; however, the optimal timing of oocyte retrieval and the molecular changes…

RATIONALE: Ichthyosis uteri is a rare pathological condition characterized by the replacement of the endometrial lining by stratified squamous epithelium. Yet its occurrence with endometrial adenocarcinoma is very rare. PATIENT CONCERNS: A …

BACKGROUND: Afferent neuronal hypersensitization via P2X3 receptor signaling has been implicated as a driver of several disorders, including refractory chronic cough, endometriosis, diabetic neuropathic pain, and overactive bladder. Eliapix…

Previous ultrasound studies suggest that patients with adenomyosis (AM) exhibit increased uterine cavity stiffness, although direct evidence regarding extracellular matrix (ECM) content and its specific impact on endometrial stiffness remai…

OBJECTIVE: Endometriosis (EMS) is an estrogen-dependent condition with unclear pathogenesis. Recent findings suggest implicate autophagy and ferroptosis in EMS development. METHODS: We assessed autophagy and ferroptosis proteins in EMS pat…

OBJECTIVE: To investigate the outcome of total laparoscopic hysterectomy (TLH) and postoperative pain characteristics and compare the pain severity after TLH for adenomyosis or uterine fibroids. METHODS: This prospective observational stud…

Granular parakeratosis is a rare dermatosis characterized by erythematous scaly patches or papules, and plaques, often involving intertriginous areas. In this work, a 73-year-old Chinese male patient presented with a 6-month history of prur…

This study aimed to explore the effects of endometriosis (EMS)-derived exosomes and miR-301a-3p on the polarization of macrophages and investigate the involved molecular mechanism. The exosomes were isolated from ectopic endometrial tissues…

BACKGROUND: Our previous work revealed the high expression of fibrinogen alpha chain (FGA) in patients with endometriosis (EM) and that it could promote the migration and invasion of endometrial stromal cells. Angiogenesis is the key condit…

e22517 Background: Uterine adenomyosis is a benign condition in which endometrium-like epithelial and stromal tissue appear in the myometrium, but easily concurrent with uterine cancer and other diseases. To date, few investigations have ex…

BACKGROUND: The aim of our present study was to investigate the clinical characteristics, treatment status and complications in women with endometriosis (EM) and tube ovarian abscess (TOA) to determine the possible association between TOA a…

Purpose: To study the effect of bazedoxifene on the expressions of vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF), soluble vascular endothelial growth factor receptor 2 (sVEGFR2), cyclooxygenase synthase 2 (COX-2) and inflammatory factors in a r…

High-intensity focused ultrasound (HIFU) therapy is a noninvasive alternative to conventional abdominal surgery in obstetrics and gynecology. The aim of this study is to evaluate the reduction of pain intensity with bowel manipulation befor…

BACKGROUND: The management of adenomyosis is challenging and limiting. Qiu's Neiyi recipe (Qiu) is a traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) prescription clinically used for endometriosis treatment in China, but the effect and mechanism of Qiu o…

Abstract Background : The aim of our present study was to investigate the clinical characteristics, treatment status and complications in women with endometriosis (EM) and tube ovarian abscess (TOA) to determine the possible association bet…

Abstract Background : The aim of our present study was to investigate the clinical characteristics, treatment status and complications in women with endometriosis and tube ovarian abscess (TOA) to determine the possible association between …

Abstract Background : The aim of our present study was to investigate the clinical characteristics, treatment status and complications in women with endometriosis (EM) and tube ovarian abscess (TOA) to determine the possible association bet…

Fibrinogen alpha chain (FGA), a cell adhesion molecule, contains two arginyl-glycyl-aspartic acid (RGD) cell adhesion sequences. Our previous study demonstrated that FGA, as an up-regulated protein in endometriosis (EM), was closely related…

RATIONALE: Uterine adenosarcoma (UA) with sarcomatous overgrowth (ASSO) is a rare and aggressive disease. Herein, wereported the case of a young patient with advanced uterine ASSO. PATIENTS CONCERNS: A 29-year-old woman with the diagnoses …

RESEARCH QUESTION: In the group's previous study, fibrinogen alpha chain (FGA) was identified as an up-regulated differential protein that was highly expressed in women with endometriosis. The current study investigated the expression and e…

PURPOSE: Endometriosis is one of the most common, difficult, and complicated gynecological disorders. Vascular cell adhesion molecule 1 (VCAM-1) has been reported to be aberrantly expressed in patients with endometriosis. However, the exact…
