This study aimed to uncover effects of non-coding RNA transcripts on ovarian endometriosis (OEM) development. Two transcription datasets (GSE105764 and GSE105765) about OME were downloaded from Gene Expression Omnibus (GEO) database and the…
BackgroundNecrotizing enterocolitis (NEC) is the leading cause of death among preterm infants born at < 30 weeks' gestation. The incidence of NEC is reduced when infants are fed human milk. However, in many neonatal intensive care units (NI…
BackgroundLower serum homocysteine (Hcy) levels are found to correlate with a better chance of clinical pregnancy and better embryo grades in assisted reproductive technology (ART). However, there is little knowledge on the association betw…
BACKGROUND: The management of ground-glass opacities (GGOs) depends mainly on personal experience. In clinical practice, benign GGOs are not rare in resected specimens, for which operations may be avoided. We retrospectively compared the cl…
BackgroundWhile single embryo transfer (SET) is widely advocated, double embryo transfer (DET) remains preferable in clinical practice to improve IVF success rate, especially in poor prognosis patients with only poor quality embryos (PQEs) …
ObjectiveIn the present study, we aimed to determine whether pregravid obesity independently predicts increased risks of perinatal complications following in vitro fertilization (IVF) and the weight loss goals to reduce the risk of poor pre…
PurposeTo examine the expression of MUC16 in the endometrium peri-implantation period in three different cohort studies.MethodsThis was a retrospective observational cohort study. A total of 245 participants were recruited in three separate…
BackgroundEctopic pregnancy (EP) is a common complication in women undergoing assisted reproductive treatment, but the underlying causes for this remain unclear. This study aimed to explore factors affecting the incidence of EP in in vitro …
BackgroundWith the rapid development of whole embryo freezing technology, more and more frozen-thawed embryo transfer (FET) was used in assisted reproductive technology. However, the best FET program for elderly women has not been finalized…
BackgroundDue to the high morbidity and poor clinical outcomes, early predictive and prognostic biomarker identification is desiderated in colorectal cancer (CRC). As a homologue of the Deleted in Colorectal Cancer (DCC) gene, the role of N…
AIM: To study the involvement and interrelationship of epithelial cell adhesion molecule (EpCAM) and epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT) in endometriosis. METHODS: Samples from 114 patients undergoing endometrial biopsy or operation for…
Objective To investigate the association between body mass index (BMI) and ectopic pregnancy (EP) following embryo transfer (ET). Design Retrospective cohort study. Setting University‐affiliated hospital. Population A total of 16 378 pregna…
Abstract Endometriosis is a common, chronic gynaecologic disease affecting up to 10% of women in their reproductive age and leading to pain and infertility. Oestrogen (E 2 )‐induced epithelial‐mesenchymal transition (EMT) process has been c…
IntroductionRobotic hysterectomy may offer advantages for complex cases over the conventional laparoscopic approach.ObjectiveTo assess the association of surgical approach (robotic vs conventional) with blood loss, risks of readmission, reo…
ObjectivesTo retrospectively analyze the correlation between anti-Müllerian hormone (AMH) and the number of oocytes obtained by controlled ovarian hyperstimulation (COH) in women of different ages and explore the factors affecting in vitro …
BackgroundEstradiol (E2 ) is an important hormone in women. Changes of serum E2 levels may affect the endometrial receptivity for embryo implantation and thus affect pregnancy outcomes. This study was to assess the association between serum…
BACKGROUND: Endometriosis (EMS) is a prevalent gynecological condition characterized by the growth of endometrial tissue outside the uterine cavity. This study aimed to clarify the targeted therapeutic effect of sunitinib in an endometriosi…
Background: Tripterygium wilfordii Hook F can cause adverse effects (AEs) in clinical application and may be harmful to human health. This study aim to summarize the AEs caused by T. wilfordii tgpolyglycoside (TWP), the most common preparat…
Non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) is one of the most lethal cancers worldwide. Inhibitor of differentiation 1 (Id1) is the member mostly linked to tumorigenesis in Id family and a potential molecular target in cancer therapy. In the curren…
BackgroundAcross major races in the United States (U.S.), ovarian cancer incidence is low among Asian American women. However, this observation aggregates Asian Americans as a single group despite their heterogeneity. Disaggregating the eth…
PURPOSE: To investigate the expression of annexin A2 (ANXA2) in ectopic and eutopic endometrium and serum of women with adenomyosis, and their relationships with adenomyosis-associated dysmenorrhea. METHODS: The expression of ANXA2 was dete…
BackgroundDespite therapeutic advancements (e.g. B-RAF inhibitors) targeting cutaneous melanoma, many cellular processes, including inducible heme oxygenase 1 (HO-1), counteract treatments for malignancies. So there is an urgent need to fin…
OBJECTIVE: To investigate the mechanism of LncRNA H19 in Th17 cell differentiation and endometrial stromal cells (ESCs) proliferation in endometriosis (EMS). METHODS: LncRNA H19, miR-342-3p and IER3 expressions were detected by qRT-PCR and …
Endometriosis is associated with benign but adversely developed cysts in the extrauterine environment. The oxidative imbalanced environment induces DNA damage and affects cell cycle progression of endometrial stromal cells (ESCs) and endome…
