BACKGROUND: Gynecological disorders are a wide range of health problems affecting the female reproductive system, which poses substantial health challenges worldwide. Increasing number of observational studies have associated mood instabili…
PurposeTo develop a deep learning (DL) model for differentiating between benign and malignant ovarian tumors of Ovarian-Adnexal Reporting and Data System Ultrasound (O-RADS US) Category 4 lesions, and validate its diagnostic performance.Met…
PurposeStruma ovarii is a highly specialized teratoma consisting primarily of mature thyroid tissue. However, malignant struma ovarii coexisting with thyroid carcinoma, not to mention autoimmune disease, is uncommon. Malignant struma ovarii…
Endometriosis-associated ovarian cancer (EAOC) is a unique subtype of ovarian malignant tumor originating from endometriosis (EMS) malignant transformation, which has gradually become one of the hot topics in clinical and basic research in …
BackgroundLaser-assisted hatching (LAH) stands as the predominant technique for removing the zona pellucida (ZP) in embryos, primarily consisting of two methods: drilling laser-assisted hatching (D-LAH) and thinning laser-assisted hatching …
Abstract Background Increasing number of observational studies have associated mood instability to common female diseases, but the underlying causal relationship remains unclear. In this work, Mendelian randomization (MR) analysis was appli…
BackgroundThe role of ovulation in epithelial ovarian cancer (EOC) is supported by the consistent protective effects of parity and oral contraceptive use. Whether these factors protect through anovulation alone remains unclear. We explored …
Wound healing is a tandem process involving inflammation, proliferation, and remodeling, through which damage is repaired and ultimately scar tissue is formed. This process mainly relies on the complex and extensive interaction of growth fa…
Acute pancreatitis (AP) is one of the most common acute abdominal diseases characterized by an injury and inflammatory disorder of the pancreas with complicated pathological mechanisms. Long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs) have been shown to play…
BackgroundDensity gradient centrifugation (DGC) and swim-up (SU) are the two most widely used sperm preparation methods for in vitro fertilization (IVF) and intracytoplasmic sperm injection (ICSI). However, existing comparisons of IVF/ICSI …
AbstractThe nonstructured abstract were supplied as following: Estrogen receptor is involved in the pathogenesis of recurrent spontaneous abortion (RSA). The ESR1 and ESR2 genes can mediate nongenomic estrogen responses. This study aimed to…
OBJECTIVE: This study explores the feasibility and value of three-dimensional ultrasound virtual organ computer-aided analysis (3D-VOCAL) combined with contrast-enhanced ultrasound (CEUS) for measuring the non-perfused volume (NPV) after mi…
Acute pancreatitis (AP) is a common disorder with significant hospital admission and mortality. Due to the unclarified pathological mechanism, there is still no effective and specific treatment for AP. Recently, autophagy has been found to …
BackgroundOvulatory disturbance is a key diagnostic feature of polycystic ovarian syndrome (PCOS), leading to infertility and correspondingly heavy disease burden. Many therapeutic strategies have been used to induce ovulation for women wit…
Severe acute pancreatitis (SAP) is the most serious type of pancreatitis with high morbidity and mortality. The underlying mechanism behind SAP pathogenesis is complex and remains elusive. Circular RNAs (circRNAs) are emerging as vital regu…
PROBLEM: To explore whether the thrombospondin-1(TSP1)-CD47-signal regulatory protein alpha (SIRPα) signaling pathway has impacts on the development of endometriosis. METHOD OF STUDY: Endometrial stromal cells (ESCs) originated from ectopic…
Endometriosis is a common gynecologic disorder with enigmatic etiopathogenesis and is characterized by tumor-like biological behaviors. Epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT) has been recognized as a core mechanism of endometriosis. Recent…
ObjectivesTo explore the prevalence of primary dysmenorrhea (PD), the characteristics of PD and self-care strategies for managing PD among Chinese college girls.DesignCross-sectional study.SettingChangsha, China.ParticipantsA total of 2555 …
Polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) is a chronic metabolic disease that is associated with obesity and adipose tissue dysfunction. This study aimed to explore the roles of Dicer (an enzyme that processes primary microRNAs) and microRNAs in PCO…
BackgroundOvulatory disturbance is a key diagnostic feature of polycystic ovarian syndrome (PCOS), leading to infertility and correspondingly heavy disease burden. Many therapeutic strategies have been used to induce ovulation for women wit…
The object of this study is to investigate the prognosis and potential histologic origin of uterine intravenous leiomyomatosis (IVL). We retrospectively analyzed the clinicopathologic and immunohistochemical features of 13 cases of IVL from…
Endometriosis is a common gynecological disease and the pathogenesis is not clearly understood. Previous studies have demonstrated via microarray techniques that microRNA (miR)‑449b was significantly downregulated both in ectopic and eutopi…
Endometriosis is a benign disease, with malignant properties. A necessary step in the progression of endometriosis is tissue remodeling, which is coordinated by the activities of matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs) and tissue inhibitors of mat…
Abstract Foxp3 + regulatory T (T reg ) cells contribute to the local dysfunctional immune environment in endometriosis, an estrogen-dependent gynecological disease, which affects the function of ectopic endometrial tissue clearance by the i…
