BackgroundSyndrome differentiation in Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) is pivotal to clinical practice and dictates the efficacy of medicinal treatments. However, precision diagnostic models for TCM syndromes, constructed from biomarkers …
BackgroundUreteral reimplantation plays a crucial role in distal ureteral reconstruction, and the integration of robotic systems has greatly enhanced minimally invasive surgical techniques. This pilot study aims to evaluate the technically …
BACKGROUND: EMS (Endometriosis) is characterized by the presence of functional endometrial tissue outside the uterus and is one of the most common gynecological disorders. SOX18 (SYR-related high-mobility group box 18) is a transcription fa…
RationaleClear cell carcinoma (CCC) is a highly invasive malignant tumor. CCCs of the female reproductive system occur mostly in the endometrium and ovaries and rarely in the cervix. So, it is difficult to diagnose cervical clear cell carci…
RationaleMalignant mixed Mullerian tumor (MMMT) is also known as carcinosarcoma, mostly occurring in the uterus, and occurred in ovary is very rare. The disease is highly aggressive. Two cases of MMMT of ovary and their imaging characterist…
Extracellular vesicles (EVs), the lipid bilayer membranous structures of particles, are produced and released from almost all cells, including eukaryotes and prokaryotes. The versatility of EVs has been investigated in various pathologies, …
STUDY OBJECTIVE: To study the rate and risk factors for short-term postoperative complications of patients undergoing minimally invasive surgery (MIS) for endometriosis in the United States. DESIGN: Retrospective cohort study. SETTING: Am…
IntroductionRobotic ureteral reconstruction (RUR) has been widely used to treat ureteral diseases. To summarize the surgical techniques, complications, and outcomes following RUR, as well as to compare data on RUR with open and laparoscopic…
BackgroundThe KangDuo-Surgical Robot-01 (KD-SR-01) system is a new surgical robot recently developed in China. The aim of this study was to present our single-center experience and mid-term outcomes of urological procedures using the KD-SR-…
Liquid biopsy has been rapidly developed in recent years due to its advantages of non-invasiveness and real-time sampling in cancer prognosis and diagnosis. Exosomes are nanosized extracellular vesicles secreted by all types of cells and ab…
BackgroundTo describe our initial experience with robotic ureteral reimplantation for the management of ureterovaginal fistulas.MethodsBetween January 2018 and January 2020, four patients received robotic ureteral reimplantation for uretero…
Polydatin (PD), a small natural compound from Polygonum cuspidatum, has a number of biological functions. However, the anticancer activity of PD has been poorly investigated. In the present study, thiazolyl blue tetrazolium bromide assay wa…
