Lymph node metastasis (LNM) confers significant treatment failure and adverse clinical outcomes in cervical cancer (CCa). However, large unknown lies in the mechanisms underlying LNM in CCa. In this study, we discovered that PRDX3 is elevat…
Phthalate esters (PAEs), frequently detected in various environmental media, are associated with multiple health issues, particularly reproductive toxicity. This study employed molecular docking and molecular dynamics simulations to investi…
BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES: Multimorbidity is increasingly prevalent among the middle-aged population, yet it is largely often overlooked. We aimed to explore and compare the differences in multimorbidity patterns by sex and age among middle…
BACKGROUND: Multimorbidity substantially increases health and economic burdens, and reduces productivity in working-age individuals. We conducted a study using data from 393,170 working-age inpatients (18-59 years) in Shaanxi, China, collec…
Endometriosis is a chronic, estrogen-dependent condition affecting over 190 million women globally, characterized by the ectopic presence of endometrial-like tissue that leads to inflammation, pain, and infertility. Despite its prevalence, …
BACKGROUND: The comorbidity of rheumatoid arthritis (RA), a chronic autoimmune disease, with cervical cancer has garnered a lot of attention. Cervical cancer is much more common in RA patients than in the general population, which may be ca…
Suicide is a complex behavior strongly associated with depression. Despite extensive research, an objective biomarker for evaluating suicide risk precisely and timely is still lacking. Using the precision resting-state fMRI method, we studi…
STUDY OBJECTIVE: To analyze trends in surgical management of uterine fibroids and identify factors influencing surgical decisions among Chinese women over the past decade. DESIGN: Retrospective cohort study. SETTING: Four campuses of Tong…
Menstruation is a key indicator of female reproductive health, yet clinical features and underlying mechanisms associated with menstrual changes following the coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) infection remain unclear. Here, we recruited …
This study investigated the prognostic impact of lymph node dissection (LND) in patients with stage I ovarian endometrioid carcinoma (OEC) and aimed to identify the optimal LND range for improved survival. By analyzing data from the Surveil…
Extracellular vesicles (EVs), including exosomes, ectosomes, and apoptotic bodies, are released by various cells. Among these subtypes, exosomes have been extensively studied and demonstrated to be crucial mediators of intercellular communi…
