Asymmetric septate uterus, commonly known as Robert's uterus, is an exceedingly rare uterine malformation described for the first time in 1970 by Robert H. Currently, surgery is the therapy of choice for Robert's uterus, with surgical choic…
Endometriosis remains a widespread but severe gynecological disease in women of reproductive age, with an unknown etiology and few treatment choices. The menstrual reflux theory is largely accepted as the underlying etiology but does not ex…
Background: Treatment with gonadotropin-releasing hormone (GnRH) antagonists is a powerful strategy to suppress gonadotropin activity in women with sex hormone-dependent disorders. Herein, we provide the safety, pharmacokinetics (PK), and p…
BACKGROUND: Adenomyosis is an estrogen-dependent gynecological disease. The pathogenesis of chronic pain, the main clinical symptom of adenomyosis, remains undefined. As a combination lymphocyte with both T-cell and natural killer (NK)-cell…
Abstract Background and objective: Li Chong Wan (Li Chong pill, LCP) origin from Yi Xue Zhong Zhong Can Xi Lu, (Records of Chinese Medicine with Reference to Western Medicine), widely used in the treatment of endometriosis (EM) in China. Th…
Endometriosis (EM) is a common and benign estrogen-dependent gynecological disorder among women of reproductive age, and secondary dysmenorrhea is one of the more severe symptoms. However, the mechanism behind the development of dysmenorrhe…
BackgroundEnhanced recovery after surgery (ERAS) pathways have been shown to improve clinical outcomes after surgery. Considering the importance of patient experience for patients with benign surgery, this study evaluated whether improved c…
Objective: The formyl peptide receptor-1 (FPR-1) has been reported to be implicated in the regulation of inflammatory disorders, while its role in cigarette smoke (CS)-induced airway inflammation has not been fully explained. In this study,…
Background and aimsPrimary adenosquamous carcinoma (ASC) is a rare liver malignancy with very little data published so far. We describe the clinical characteristics of this tumor and analyze its survival pattern to improve the diagnosis and…
IntroductionPerioperative infections may be considered predictors of caesarean scar defect (CSD), and multidose antibiotics have a protective effect against CSD. However, the ability of adjunctive azithromycin combined with cephalosporin to…
Abstract Background: And the incidence of endometriosis has been increased in recent years. Deep infiltrating endometriosis is the most advanced type of endometriosis. The treatments for patients with DIE and fertility desire are controvers…
BackgroundYolk sac tumors (YSTs) are the second most common germ cell malignancy of the ovaries generally present in children and young women. YSTs arising in combination with epithelial ovarian carcinoma (EOC) in older women are rarely rep…
Ovarian fibroma/fibrothecoma with elevated serum OC125 antigen (CA125) is rarely encountered in clinical practice, and also easily misdiagnosed as epithelial ovarian carcinoma (EOC). The aim of this study was to investigate the clinicopatho…
Primary dysmenorrhoea, defined as painful menstrual cramps in the absence of pelvic pathology, is a common problem in women of reproductive age. Its aetiology and pathophysiology remain largely unknown. Here we performed a two-stage genome-…
Endometriosis is a benign gynecologic disorder causing dysmenorrhea, pelvic pain, and subfertility. Receptors for the growth hormone-releasing hormone (GHRH) were found in endometriotic tissues. Antagonists of GHRH have been used to inhibit…
Acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL) is the most common hematological malignancy in pediatric patients. Despite advances in the treatment of this disease, many children with T-cell ALL (T-ALL) die from disease relapse due to low responses to …
BackgroundHeredity and environmental exposures may contribute to a predisposition to allergic rhinitis (AR). Autoimmunity may also involve into this pathologic process. FCRL3 (Fc receptor-like 3 gene), a novel immunoregulatory gene, has rec…
Since its discovery, diverse functions have been attributed to the G0/G1 switch gene 2 (G0S2), from lipid metabolism to control of cell proliferation. Our group showed for the first time that G0S2 promotes quiescence in hematopoietic stem c…
BackgroundPolycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) is a heterogeneous disorder because of the variable criteria used for diagnosis. Therefore, International Classification of Diseases 9 (ICD-9) codes may not accurately capture the diagnostic criter…
The association of low-grade endometrioid carcinoma with undifferentiated carcinoma (UC) was first reported in endometrium carcinoma, termed with dedifferentiated carcinoma (DC). However, the coexistence of low-grade endometrioid carcinoma …
Estrogens are the primary female sex hormones and play important roles in both reproductive and non-reproductive systems. Estrogens can be synthesized in non-reproductive tissues such as liver, heart, muscle, bone and brain, and tissue-spec…
Endometriosis (EM) is one of the common and frequently encountered gynecological diseases that seriously influences women's health. Its morbidity reaches 10%-15% in women at reproductive ages, and shows an evident rising tendency. In recent…
BackgroundGlucocorticoids down-regulate cytokine synthesis and suppress inflammatory responses. The glucocorticoid receptor (GR) antagonist RU486 may exacerbate the inflammatory response, and concerns over this exacerbation have limited the…
ObjectiveTo investigate the clinicopathologic features of atypical endometriosis (AEM) and to discuss the relationship between AEM and tumors.MethodsA retrospective analysis was performed of 163 cases of AEM, which were retrieved from the D…
