Small extracellular vesicles (sEVs) are the key mediators of intercellular communication. They have the potential for clinical use as diagnostic or therapeutic biomarkers and have been explored as vectors for drug delivery. Identification o…
Objective: To establish a predictive model distinguishing focal mass-forming pancreatitis (FMFP) from pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC) based on computed tomography (CT) radiomics and clinical data. Methods: A total of 78 FMFP patient…
BACKGROUND: The aim of this retrospective study was to investigate whether oral antibiotics (doxycycline and metronidazole) combined with intrauterine perfusion (gentamicin and dexamethasone) are beneficial for patients with repeated implan…
BACKGROUND: The mortality rate of ovarian cancer ranks first among three common gynecological malignant tumors due to insidious onset and lack of effective early diagnosis methods. Borderline epithelial ovarian tumor (BEOT) is a type of low…
Intrauterine adhesion (IUA) is primarily caused by endometrial injury, and hysteroscopic adhesiolysis is presently the main treatment. However, postoperative recurrence and poor pregnancy outcomes remain intractable. In this study, we aim t…
OBJECTIVE: To study the correlation of Triclosan (TCS) exposure with typing and staging of endometriosis, and with other potential influencing factors. METHODS: This was a retrospective study. Thirty two patients that were diagnosed with e…
An RNA modification known as N6-methyladenosine (m6A) interacts with a range of coding and non-coding RNAs. The majority of the research has focused on identifying m6A regulators that are differentially expressed in endometriosis, but it ha…
STUDY OBJECTIVE: To develop a noninvasive predictive model based on patients with infertility for identifying minimal or mild endometriosis. DESIGN: A retrospective cohort study. SETTING: This study was conducted at a tertiary referral ce…
Endoscopic ultrasound-guided fine-needle aspiration/biopsy (EUS-FNA/FNB) is very safe and has a high diagnostic rate for upper gastrointestinal lesions, especially pancreatic lesions, but its application in the lower gastrointestinal tract …
The immune system contributes to the pathophysiology of endometriosis. The role of ThGM cells, which produce granulocyte macrophage-colony-stimulating factor (GM-CSF), in the pathogenesis of endometriosis remains unknown. To analyze the fea…
Human amniotic membrane (hAM) is a promising material for tissue engineering due to several benefits, including desirable biocompatibility, stem cell source, antibacterial activity, etc. However, because of its low elasticity, the clinical …
STUDY QUESTION: What are the dynamic expression features of plasma microRNAs (miRNAs) during the peri-implantation period in women with successful pregnancy via single frozen-thawed blastocyst transfer? SUMMARY ANSWER: There is a significa…
IMPORTANCE: Adenomyosis is a common chronic gynecological disorder, and its treatment is an unmet need. New therapies need to be developed. Mifepristone is being tested for adenomyosis treatment. OBJECTIVE: To determine whether mifepriston…
BACKGROUND: Preimplantation genetic testing for aneuploidy (PGT-A) was demonstrated to be superior to conventional IVF in reducing the incidence of miscarriage and abnormal offspring after the first embryo transfer (ET). PGT-A requires seve…
IntroductionThe clinical impact of SARS-CoV-2 infection on human reproduction remains controversial. This prospective cohort study aimed to assess the effect of prior female SARS-CoV-2 infection on subsequent in vitro fertilization (IVF) ou…
BACKGROUND: Significant lower genital tract (LGT) dysbiosis and an associated lower rate of clinical pregnancy after in vitro fertilization-frozen embryo transfer (IVF-FET) among polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) patients have been previousl…
OBJECTIVE: Systematic evaluation of the efficacy and safety of robotic-assisted laparoscopic myomectomy (RALM) versus laparoscopic myomectomy (LM). METHODS: PubMed, Embase, The Cochrane Library, and Web of Science database were searched by…
Abstract Background: To study whether ILs/TNFs in the follicular fluid (FF) of women with EMs are responsible for impaired follicular development or (and) ovulation or not, and then to explore the underlying mechanisms. Methods: follicular …
BACKGROUND: Adenomyosis is a frequent finding in endometrial carcinoma patients. Endometrioid adenocarcinoma is the most common type of endometrial carcinoma; however, endometrioid adenocarcinoma arising from adenomyosis is extremely rare. …
Abstract Despite its prevalence and the severity of symptoms, little is known about the pathogenesis and etiology of adenomyosis. In our previous study, Scribble localization has been found to be partially translocated to cytoplasm, however…
Despite its prevalence and the severity of symptoms, little is known about the pathogenesis and etiology of adenomyosis. In our previous study, Scribble localization has been found to be partially translocated to cytoplasm; however, its reg…
Vitamin D plays a role in anti-inflammatory processes, and the alteration of its metabolism is associated with the inflammatory processes of pancreatitis. This study was performed to evaluate the expression of the vitamin D receptor (VDR) a…
Dynamic changes in the endometrium are crucial for establishing early pregnancy in ruminants. Blastocyst elongation and implantation require hormones and nutrients to be secreted from the maternal endometrium. The fatty acid-binding protein…
OBJECTIVE: Several studies have reported the association between gut microbiota and infertility; however, the causal association between them remains unclear. This study aimed to explore the causal relationship between gut microbiota and in…
