Programmed cell death 4 (PDCD4) has been identified as a tumor‑suppressor gene that inhibits neoplastic transformation, tumor progression, and protein translation. It has been reported that multiple factors participate in the regulation of …
MRgFUS is a non-invasive, safe and effective treatment for both uterine fibroids and adenomyosis. Compared with uterine fibroids, MRgFUS treatment of adenomyosis has some disadvantages such as higher energy, lower ablation efficiency and mo…
Acute pancreatitis is an acute abdominal disease, with 10-20% of the cases deteriorating rapidly, accompanied by persistent organ failure and further development into severe acute pancreatitis (SAP). The aim of the present study was to inve…
Von Hippel-Lindau (VHL) disease is a rare autosomal-dominant inherited tumor syndrome. We aimed to analyze the correlations between frequent VHL mutations and phenotypes in Chinese VHL families. We screened 540 patients from 187 unrelated C…
BACKGROUND: Endometriosis is defined as a chronic inflammatory disease. Recent studies have shown that increased coagulation parameters including fibrinogen and platelets are associated with endometriosis. The objective of this study was to…
Abstract Background: Endometriosis is a common disease in reproductive-age women and usually causes pelvic pain. Endometriosis pain is considered as a kind of neuropathic pain and infiltrating nerve fiber in endometriotic lesions may play a…
Impaired decidualization has been considered a major cause of infertility in adenomyosis. However, the mechanism remains poorly understood. Recent studies suggest that microRNAs (miRNA) play a crucial role in embryo implantation. The aim of…
PurposeTo identify the disease-causing gene in a family with female infertility and fertilization failure.MethodsWhole-exome sequencing and Sanger sequencing were used to identify the disease-causing gene in a female with infertility and fe…
Ovarian Clear Cell Carcinoma (OCCC) displays distinctive clinical and molecular characteristics and confers the worst prognosis among all ovarian carcinoma histotypes when diagnosed at advanced stage, because of the lack of effective therap…
BackgroundEmbryonic mortality is a major concern in the commercial swine industry and primarily occurs early in gestation, but also during mid-gestation (~ days 50-70). Previous reports demonstrated that the embryonic loss rate was signific…
Protein interactions are crucial for maintaining homeostasis. Heat shock factor 1 (HSF1), a transcription factor that interacts with various proteins, is highly expressed in squamous cell carcinoma (SCC) of the cervix. The aim of the presen…
Long noncoding RNAs have been widely accepted to play important roles in acute myocardial infarction (AMI). The dysregulation of cyclin-dependent kinase inhibitor 2B antisense RNA 1 (ANRIL) was discovered in AMI patients. Nevertheless, the …
ObjectiveTo compare the diagnostic accuracy of different hormonal biomarkers and to find the most effective hormonal biomarker for the diagnosis of endometriosis.Data sourcesWe conducted a systematic search using PubMed, EMBASE, Cochrane Li…
Worldwide, infertility affects 8-12% of couples of reproductive age and has become a common problem. There are many ways to treat infertility, including medication, intrauterine insemination, and in vitro fertilization. In recent years, ste…
An uncontrolled inflammatory response has been implicated in the progression of acute liver failure through poorly understood mechanisms. The aim of our study was to investigate whether suramin attenuates inflammation-mediated hepatocyte ap…
Endometriosis is a condition characterized by the presence of endometrial tissues outside the uterus. Endometriotic stromal cells (ESCs) are known to undergo regeneration and are linked to the causation of endometriosis. Activation of strom…
BackgroundPredicting drug-disease interactions (DDIs) is time-consuming and expensive. Improving the accuracy of prediction results is necessary, and it is crucial to develop a novel computing technology to predict new DDIs. The existing me…
Polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) is a prevalent endocrine disorder in reproductive-aged women. Clinical manifestations include hyperandrogenism, chronic anovulation, polycystic ovaries and being frequently accompanied by insulin resistance …
ObjectiveThe aim of this study was to examine the effect of TRIB3 on proliferation, apoptosis, and migration of endometrial cancer (EC) cells and explore the relationship between TRIB3 and AKT signaling pathway in EC progression.MethodsImmu…
BackgroundIntrauterine adhesions (IUA) are the most common cause of uterine infertility and are caused by endometrium fibrotic regeneration following severe damage to the endometrium. Although current stem cell treatment options using diffe…
BackgroundThe aim of this study was to investigate the prevalence and risk factors of symptomatic pelvic organ prolapse in obese Chinese women.Subjects and methodsWe performed a secondary analysis of 3,105 obese women from an observational …
BACKGROUND: To investigate the effect of applying doctor-nurse-patient integration management mode to patients with endometriosis (EMT). METHODS: A total of 160 patients with EMT from the Department of Neurology of The Fifth Affiliated Hosp…
Interleukin-1 (IL-1) gene is known to be implicated in tuberculosis (TB). The present case-control study was designed to investigate whether IL-1 polymorphisms associated with TB susceptibility in a Chinese Tibetan cohort. 300 Tibetan tuber…
Endometriosis (ENDO) is a common gynecological disease that causes infertility in many women. Previous studies noted that the dysregulation of Homeo box A10 (HOXA10) in the endometrium of women with ENDO was involved in the failure of embry…
