To investigate the association between widespread use of mifepristone in abortions and risk of uterine leiomyomas.We conducted a case-control study of 305 patients with uterine leiomyomas between January 2011 and July 2012; 311 women with o…
In order to determine the effect of B7‑H4 on the development of human hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC), the expression levels of B7‑H4 were evaluated using reverse transcription‑polymerase chain reaction and flow cytometry in HL‑7702 and Huh7…
BACKGROUND: To evaluate the short-term and long-term outcomes after laparoscopic hysterectomy (LH) compared with abdominal hysterectomy (AH) in case of benign gynecological disease. METHODS: A multi-center cohort retrospective comparative …
The aim of the present study was to investigate the association between serum vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) and insulin-like growth factor 1 (IGF-1) levels and the prognosis of patients with uterine fibroids following uterine ar…
Aims. To observe the effects of Guizhi Fuling Capsule (GZFLC) drug serum on uterine leiomyoma cells and explore its mechanism. Main Methods. Sixty Sprague Dawley rats were randomly divided into two groups (normal saline lavage group and GZF…
Previous studies suggest that the RAD51 gene 135G/C polymorphism could be potentially associated with the risk of ovarian cancer. However, results from observational studies are conflicting rather than conclusive. We performed a meta-analys…
AIMS: This study is to investigate the expression levels of vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) and cancer antigen 125 (CA125) in serum of adenomyosis patients before and after interventional therapy. The role of serum levels of VEGF …
Liver cancer is one of the most lethal cancers, but our knowledge of the molecular mechanism underlying this process remains insufficient. Through deep sequencing and expression regulation analysis in liver cancer cells, we identified two n…
The objective of our study is to assess the association of endometriosis risk and genetic polymorphisms involving biosynthesis of sex steroids and their receptors. A systematic search of three databases was conducted. Twenty-seven studies o…
OBJECTIVE: To study erythrocyte immune function of patients with endometriosis and explore the pathogenesis of endometriosis. METHODS: 38 patients with endometriosis diagnosed by laparoscopy or laparotomy and 21 normal women as the control…
OBJECTIVE: To explore the mechanism of treating endometriosis by tonifying Kidney and removing blood stasis with Neiyixiao Recipe (NYXR). METHODS: One hundred and three patients of endometriosis were divided randomly into the NYXR group (5…
Endometriosis (EM) is characterized by the aberrant growth of endometrial cells at sites outside the uterus. We showed previously that peritoneal leukocyte interleukin-6 (IL-6) production is altered in women with EM relative to that in norm…
