This study aimed to investigate the clinical factors affecting pregnancy rates following the surgical removal of intrauterine adhesions (IUAs) and subsequent in vitro fertilization and embryo transfer (IVF-ET). We retrospectively evaluated …
Different sizes of uterine septum between infertile women and patients with abortions may have a clinical relevance in reproductive performance after surgery. This study aimed to assess if the fecundity of women after surgical correction of…
A recent hypothesis-free pathway-level analysis of genome-wide association study (GWAS) datasets suggested that the overall genetic variation measured by single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) in the nucleotide excision repair (NER) pathway…
MicroRNA (miRNA) expression profiles in tubal endometriosis (EM) are still poorly understood. In this study, we analyzed the differential expression of miRNAs and the related gene networks and signaling pathways in tubal EM. Four tubal epith…
Huaier, as known as Trametes robiniophila Murr, is a traditional Chinese medicine. Various studies have demonstrated that Huaier could inhibit cancer progression and improve the prognosis of patients. In the present study, we comprehensivel…
PURPOSE: The risks of gynecologic cancer have not been well established in women with endometriosis. The objective of the present study was to investigate the influence of endometriosis on the risk for three gynecologic cancer (ovarian canc…
Recently, long noncoding RNAs (lncRNAs) have become the key gene regulators and prognostic biomarkers in various cancers. Through microarray data, Linc00339 was identified as a candidate oncogenic lncRNA. We compared the expression levels o…
OBJECTIVE: Endometriosis is a common gynecologic disease that frequently leading to chronic pelvic pain, severe dysmenorrhea, and subfertility. As first-line hormonal treatment can interfere with ovulation and may cause recurrent pelvic pai…
Macrophages play an essential role in skeletal muscle regeneration. The phagocytosis of muscle cell debris induces a switch of pro-inflammatory macrophages into an anti-inflammatory phenotype, but the cellular receptors mediating this phago…
Members of the interleukin (IL)-10 family of cytokines play important roles in regulating immune responses during host defense but also in autoimmune disorders, inflammatory diseases, and cancer. Although IL-10 itself primarily acts on leuk…
Abstract Background Several studies had investigated the role of serum Ca-125 in clinical pregnancy of patients undergoing in vitro fertilization (IVF); however, their conclusions had been inconsistent. This study aimed to evaluate the cor…
OBJECTIVE: The study aimed to investigate the impact of the peak E2 level during controlled ovarian hyperstimulation (COS) on the cumulative live birth rate (cLBR) in non-PCOS women with normal ovarian reserve. MATERIALS AND METHODS: Women…
Abstract Background This retrospective study aimed (1) to evaluate the value of enhanced T2 star-weighted angiography (ESWAN) in diagnosis Adenomyosis(AM). And (2) to estimate the differences of focal AM patients lesion and the peripheral t…
The application of photothermal therapy to treat bacterial infections remains a challenge, as the high temperatures required for bacterial elimination can damage healthy tissues. Here, we develop an exogenous antibacterial agent consisting …
The aim of the present study was to explore the influence of positive simple thyroid peroxidase antibody (TPO-Ab) on female infertility. Venous blood was collected on an empty stomach from infertile female patients (all of whom were in line…
The present study examined whether bufalin could induce human esophageal carcinoma ECA109 cells apoptosis via inhibiting the activation of mechanistic target of rapamycin (mTOR)/p70 S6 kinase (p70S6K) pathway is discussed in this article. T…
This retrospective analysis aimed to clarify the clinical and pathologic features of ovarian clear cell carcinoma (OCCC), and to determine the factors predictive of survival.Data waereextracted from OCCC patients who underwent primary surge…
OBJECTIVE: To investigate the relationship between the transcription of ANRIL, P15, P14 and P16 at the same locus and the regulation mechanism of ANRIL. METHODS: Publicly available database of Cancer Cell Line Encyclopedia (CCLE) was used …
BACKGROUND: In some in vitro fertilization (IVF) or intracytoplasmic sperm injection (ICSI) cycles, we may consider transferring one poor-quality embryo with one good-quality embryo. Previous studies have indicated that the poor-quality emb…
The present study investigated the effects of endometrial stem cell (EnSCs) transplantation combined with estrogen in the repair of endometrial injury. A total of 30 patients with intrauterine adhesions (IUA) and 30 healthy individuals were…
BACKGROUND: Considered as the precursor lesion of a subset of ovarian clear cell carcinoma (OCCC), the prognostic role of endometriosis in OCCC patients remains controversial. This study aimed to investigate the prognostic role of coexistin…
OBJECTIVE: To compare the treatment efficacy and safety of high intensity focused ultrasound (HIFU) on its own, HIFU combined with levonorgestrel-releasing intrauterine system (LNG-IUS) and HIFU combined with gonadotropin-releasing hormone …
Metabolomics is an emerging and robust discipline and involves the comprehensive evaluation of small molecule endogenous metabolites and enables the exploration of the pathogenesis of diseases. For example, endometriosis - a common disease …
BACKGROUND: In the assisted reproduction, the infertile molecules of spermatozoa from normozoospermic men who underwent the unexplained failure of in vitro fertilization (IVF) due to the lack of sperm binding to the normal zona pellucida, a…
Podocyte apoptosis is considered as the important element that promotes the development and progress of membranous nephropathy (MN). Unfortunately, the underlying mechanism of podocytes apoptosis in MN remains elusive. We compared the renal…
