AIMS/HYPOTHESIS: Menstrual cycle dysfunction has been associated with many endocrine-related diseases, but evidence linking menstrual cycle dysfunction with gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM) is scant. The current study investigated the as…
Adenomyosis (ADS) is a commonly encountered benign gynecological disorder. Epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT) may serve a pivotal role in the pathogenesis of ADS. Talin1 has been identified to be implicated in multiple human carcinomas…
BACKGROUND: The denomyotic junctional zone (JZ) plays an important role in the pathogenesis of adenomyosis. Proliferating cell nuclear antigen (PCNA) is an important nuclear marker of cell proliferation. This study aimed to evaluate the eff…
A time-lapse system (TLS) with a well-of-the-well (WOW) dish, which allows individual identification and the possibility of autocrine and paracrine signaling between group-cultured embryos, has been widely used in clinic. However, there is …
BACKGROUND: This study aimed to investigate the specific vaginal microbiome in the differential diagnosis of endometriosis/adenomyosis (EM/AM)-associated chronic pelvic pain (CPP) from other types of CPP, and to explore the role of the vagi…
BACKGROUND: We aimed to investigate the efficacy and safety of echo contrast-enhanced ultrasound (CEUS) during high-intensity focused ultrasound (HIFU) ablation therapy for abdominal wall endometriosis (AWE). METHODS: A total of 67 patient…
Cytochrome b reductase 1 (CYBRD1) promotes the development of ovarian serous cystadenocarcinoma (OV). We assessed the function of CYBRD1 in OV underlying The Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA) database. The correlation between clinicopathological c…
BACKGROUND: Let-7a is a small non-coding RNA that has been found to take part in cell proliferation and apoptosis. The hippo-YAP1 axis, known as a tumour suppressor pathway, also plays an important role in cell proliferation and apoptosis. …
Adenomyosis (ADS) is an estrogen-dependent gynecological disease with unspecified etiopathogenesis. Local hyperestrogenism may serve a key role in contributing to the origin of ADS. Talin1 is mostly identified to be overexpressed and involv…
Abstract Adenomyosis (ADS) is an estrogen-dependent gynecological disease with unspecified etiopathogenesis. Local hyperestrogenism may serve a central role in contributing the origin of ADS. Talin1 is mostly identified to be overexpressed …
RESEARCH QUESTION: Does connective tissue growth factor (CTGF) expression relate to adenomyotic fibrosis and determine the correlation between fibrosis with adenomyosis-associated dysmenorrhoea? DESIGN: Protein and mRNA expression of CTGF …
BACKGROUND: Endometriosis (EMS) is a gynecological disease defined by the translocation and growth of endometrial tissue in other tissues or organs outside the uterus. Its clinical manifestations are dysmenorrhea, irregular menstruation, an…
The aim of this study was to investigate the relationship between blood lipid level and the parameters of embryo morphology of in vitro fertilization (IVF).A total of 488 patients undergoing conventional IVF were divided into pregnant (n = …
Low back pain is a chronic, highly prevalent, and hard-to-treat condition in the elderly. Clinical studies indicate that AXL, which belongs to the tyrosine kinase receptor subfamily, mediates pathological pain. However, it is not clear exac…
Objective: To explore the clinical characteristics of patients with pre-malignant or malignant transformation in ectopic endometrium of adenomyosis. Methods: A retrospective study was performed on 4 818 patients received surgical treatment …
AIMS: To identify the common and specific molecular mechanisms of three well-defined subtypes of endometriosis (EMs): ovarian endometriosis (OE), peritoneal endometriosis (PE), and deep infiltrating endometriosis (DIE). METHODS: Four micro…
RESEARCH QUESTION: Is abnormal gene module expression in the eutopic endometrium related to the occurrence of endometriosis? DESIGN: Nine datasets of normal and eutopic endometrium were searched and collected through the National Center fo…
Endometriosis is an estrogen-dependent inflammatory disorder, usually causing infertility, pelvic pain, and ovarian masses. This study intended to investigate the implication of N6-methyladenosine (m6A) regulators in endometriosis. We acqui…
Objective: To observe the expression, correlation and significance of chemokine (C-X-C motif) ligand 12 (CXCL12) and chemokine (C-X-C motif) receptor 4 (CXCR4) in endometrium and myometrium of adenomyosis. Methods: Totally 38 patients were …
BACKGROUND: Dysregulated circular RNAs (circRNAs) are involved in the development of glioma. This paper aims to analyze the role and mechanism of circRNA tau tubulin kinase 2 (circ-TTBK2) in glioma progression. METHODS: The glioma samples …
The current study intended to explore the interaction of the long non-coding RNA (lncRNA), microRNA (miRNA), and messenger RNA (mRNA) under the background of competitive endogenous RNA (ceRNA) network in endometriosis (EMs). The differentia…
BACKGROUND: Women with endometriosis and previous cystectomy may respond less well to gonadotropin stimulation, which results in fewer oocytes retrieved and poor pregnancy outcomes. Choosing an appropriate protocol for such populations is e…
Long noncoding RNAs (lncRNAs) modulate endometriosis. The current study investigated the mechanisms and effects of SNHG4 on endometriosis. The qRT-PCR was conducted to examine the miR-148a-3p and SNHG4 expressions in endometriosis tissues. …
Pelvic mass onset following a hysterectomy due to benign disease is not rarely seen. Appropriate diagnosis and treatment are of great importance.This study aims to analyze the clinicopathological features of patients who have received surge…
Ovarian hyperstimulation syndrome (OHSS) is one of the most life-threatening and potentially fatal complications associated with controlled ovarian hyperstimulation (COH) during in vitro fertilization (IVF) treatment. Although the pathogene…
