BACKGROUND: This meta-analysis was performed using Stata (15.0), and sought to systematically evaluate the domestic application value of the gonadotropin-releasing hormone agonist (GNRH-a) after cervical cancer, and explore its protective e…
OBJECTIVE: To use the Morphological Uterus Sonographic Assessment (MUSA) criteria to evaluate the impact of adenomyosis on the live birth rate after donor egg embryo transfer. DESIGN: Retrospective cohort study. SETTING: Tertiary fertilit…
BACKGROUND: Many factors can affect the recurrence of endometriosis after surgery, however, whether endometriotic cyst fluid contributes to endometriosis recurrence after surgical excision of ovarian endometriomas remains unclear. The objec…
OBJECTIVE: The aim of this study was to systematically summarize and form an expert consensus on the theoretical experience of tongue and facial features for the identification of nine types of traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) constitutio…
BACKGROUND: Undifferentiated pleomorphic sarcoma (UPS) is a malignant tumor that originates in the mesenchymal tissue and is common in the extremities and retroperitoneum. Primary UPS of the duodenal papilla is rare and a distinct clinical …
Endometriosis is a chronic inflammatory disease with pelvic pain and uncharacteristic accompanying symptoms. Endometriosis-associated pain often persists despite treatment of the disease, thus it brings a deleterious impact on their persona…
(1) The accuracy of patient-derived xenografts (PDXs) in predicting ADP-ribose polymerase inhibitor (PARPi) efficacy in ovarian cancer was tested, novel biomarkers were investigated, and whether PARPis could replace platinum-based chemother…
BACKGROUND: To determine whether the embryo developmental stage affects biochemical or clinical pregnancy loss in young women undergoing frozen-thawed embryo transfer (FET) and to investigate the underlying mechanism. METHODS: This was a r…
BACKGROUND: Postpartum subinvolution of the uterus is a more common condition after cesarean section. Auricular acupressure (AA) is widely used for the treatment of postpartum diseases. However, few studies have explored the effects of AA a…
BACKGROUND: Endometriosis is a refractory and recurrent disease and it affects nearly 10% of reproductive-aged women and 40% of infertile patients. The commonly accepted theory for endometriosis is retrograde menstruation where endometrial …
This study aimed to explore common molecular changes in the infertile endometrium from women with and without endometriosis (EM). By analyzing the dataset GSE120103 from Gene Expression Omnibus, a total of 3252 shared differentially express…
Recurrent pregnancy loss (RPL) is a common reproductive problem affecting around 5% of couples worldwide. At present, about half of RPL cases remained unexplained. Previous studies have suggested an important role for genetic determinants i…
Aberration in microRNA expression or DNA methylation is a causal factor for polycystic ovarian syndrome. However, the epigenetic interactions between miRNA and DNA methylation remain unexplored in PCOS. We conducted a novel integrated analy…
BACKGROUND: Endometriosis-associated pain can be considered a type of neuropathic pain. Netrin-1 is an axon guidance cue that regulates axonal attraction or rejection in neural injury and regeneration. However, whether netrin-1 plays a role…
Abstract The endometrium, the mucosal lining of the uterus, undergoes dynamic changes throughout the menstrual cycle in response to ovarian hormones. We have generated single-cell and spatial reference maps of the human uterus and 3D endome…
Endometriosis is an estrogen-dependent gynecological disease. The pathogenesis of endometriosis remains controversial, although it is generally accepted that the inflammatory immune response plays a crucial role in this process. Mast cells …
Endometriosis is a benign, chronic inflammatory disease that commonly occurs in reproductive-aged women. Epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT) of endometrial epithelial cells plays an important role in the development of endometriosis. Re…
Natural orifice specimen extraction surgery (NOSES) is especially suitable for colorectal surgery. Until now, most of the reports published were about laparoscopic NOSES, the reports about robotic NOSES are extremely rare. This study aims t…
BACKGROUND: In-vitro-grow (IVG) of preantral follicles is essential for female fertility preservation, while practical approach for improvement is far from being explored. Studies have indicated that neurotrophin-4 (NT-4) is preferentially …
To screen the key immune genes in the development of cervical cancer, construct immune related gene pairs (IRGPs), and evaluate their influence on the prognosis of cervical cancer. Tumor Genome Atlas (TCGA) database and geo database were do…
Abstract BackgroundEndometriosis is a refractory and recurrent disease and it affects nearly 10% of reproductive-aged women and 40% of infertile patients. The commonly accepted theory for endometriosis is retrograde menstruation where endo…
STUDY QUESTION: Does P2X ligand-gated ion channel 3 (P2X3) play a role in endometriosis pain? SUMMARY ANSWER: Upregulation of P2X3 in dorsal root ganglia (DRG) tissues via the activating transcription factor 3 (ATF3)/activator protein (AP)…
OBJECTIVE: There is a need for early detection of colorectal cancer (CRC) at precancerous-stage adenoma. Here, we identified novel faecal bacterial markers for diagnosing adenoma. DESIGN: This study included 1012 subjects (274 CRC, 353 ade…
BACKGROUND: Primary fallopian tube carcinoma (PFTC) is a malignant tumor of the female genital tract that mostly presents intraperitoneal dissemination in clinical practice. The incidence of upper anterior mediastinal metastasis in PFTCs is…
OBJECTIVE: Premature ovarian insufficiency (POI) is a refractory disease that seriously affects female fertility. Growing body of evidence has indicated mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) as promising resources in regenerative medicine. In this …
