N6-metyladenosine (m6A), one of the most common RNA methylation modifications in mammals, has attracted extensive attentions owing to its regulatory roles in a variety of physiological and pathological processes. As a reversible epigenetic …
This study aimed to investigate effects of pulmonary fractalkine (FKN/CX3CL1) on angiogenesis and tube formation. Tube forming capability of pulmonary vascular endothelial cells (PVECs) was evaluated. CCK-8 assay was used to evaluate prolif…
Ossification of the posterior longitudinal ligament of the spine (OPLL) is an intractable disease leading to severe neurological deficits. Its etiology and pathogenesis are primarily unknown. The relationship between OPLL and comorbidities,…
Cystic adenomyosis is a rare type of uterine adenomyosis, mainly seen in young women, which is often characterized by severe dysmenorrhea. The quality of life and reproductive function of young women could be affected by misdiagnosis and de…
Abstract This study aimed to investigate the clinical efficacy of endometrial ablation with high-intensity focused ultrasound (HIFU) for symptom relief in women with adenomyosis. Between July 2014 and July 2020, 167 patients with adenomyosi…
OBJECTIVE: To compare the clinical efficacy of High intensity-focused ultrasound(HIFU) for different types of adenomyosis classified by magnetic resonance imaging (MRI). METHODS: A total of 227 patients with adenomyosis who underwent HIFU …
Endometriosis is an estrogen-dependent chronic inflammatory disease. Hormonal and surgical treatments are the most commonly used clinical therapies, but they have many sides effects or are traumatic to the body. Therefore, specific drugs fo…
Endometriosis is a common gynecological disease with an enigmatic pathogenesis. This work explored the function of hsa_circ_0005991 in ovarian endometriosis. High-throughput RNA-Seq was conducted in five matched ectopic (EC) and eutopic (EU…
ObjectiveTo simulate hysteroscopic suturing in vitro and analyze the learning curve of gynecologists with different experience levels.MethodsThree gynecologists were trained on uterine models in a circulating water box. The posterior uterin…
BackgroundThe clinical application of autologous leukocyte-poor platelet-rich plasma (LP-PRP) in patients with recurrent implantation failure (RIF) is rare. This retrospective observational cohort study aimed to evaluate the efficacy of LP-…
BackgroundChildbearing in women with advanced maternal age (AMA) has increased the need for artificial reproductive technology (ART). ART and oxidative stress are associated with many pregnancy complications. Paraoxonase (PON) 1 is one of t…
It has been demonstrated that scar tissue and fibrosis may increase the likelihood of developing malignancies. Specifically, scar tissue has been linked to the occurrence and progression of lung cancer (LC), though the precise mechanisms ne…
Tumor models in vitro are conventional methods for developing anti-cancer drugs, evaluating drug delivery, or calculating drug efficacy. However, traditional cell line-derived tumor models are unable to capture the tumor heterogeneity in pa…
RESEARCH QUESTION: What role, if any, does histone deacetylase 3 (HDAC3) play in adenomyosis-associated heavy menstrual bleeding (HMB)? DESIGN: Seventy-two women with adenomyosis-associated HMB were recruited. Of these, 37 women reported m…
The retrotransposon known as long interspersed nuclear element-1 (LINE-1), which is currently the sole autonomously mobile transposon in the human genome, can result in insertional mutations, chromosomal rearrangements, and genomic instabil…
BackgroundEruptive syringoma (ES) is a clinical variant of the appendageal tumor syringoma. Around 75% of ES arise in the head or neck, which makes them unsightly. ES is common in patients with amyloidosis, diabetes, and Down's syndrome, su…
The oral microbiome has been implicated in a growing number of diseases; however, determinants of the oral microbiome and their roles remain elusive. Here, we investigated the oral (saliva and tongue dorsum) metagenome, the whole genome, an…
We investigated whether anogenital distance (AGD) is associated with adenomyosis, endometriosis and uterine leiomyomas (UL, also called uterine fibroids). We recruited 81 women with UL, 105 with ovarian endometrioma (OE), 116 with adenomyos…
High-intensity focused ultrasound (HIFU) has emerged as a promising uterus-sparing and possibly fertility-sparing treatment modality for women with adenomyosis, especially those who desire to conceive. We conducted this systematic review an…
Millions of women worldwide suffer from infertility associated with gynecologic disorders such as premature ovarian insufficiency, polycystic ovary syndrome, Asherman syndrome, endometriosis, preeclampsia, and fallopian tube obstruction. Th…
BACKGROUND: Women with endometriosis have been shown to have a reduced vagal tone as compared with controls and vagotomy promoted while vagus nerve stimulation (VNS) decelerated the progression of endometriosis in mice. Extensive research a…
Artificial intelligence (AI)-aided general clinical diagnosis is helpful to primary clinicians. Machine learning approaches have problems of generalization, interpretability, etc. Dynamic Uncertain Causality Graph (DUCG) based on uncertain …
