Negative energy balance (NEB) during the perinatal period leads to metabolic and immunological disorders in dairy cows, resulting in systemic responses and inflammation. The innate immune system is crucial for the host's protection and infl…
BACKGROUND: To clarify clinical importance of serum CA19-9, CA-125, and plasma D-dimer (D-D) levels in detecting spontaneously ruptured ovarian endometriosis (OE). MATERIALS AND METHODS: We retrospectively examined 173 patients with endome…
Background and aimsFemale fertility is a heterogeneous condition of complete psychosocial and physical well-being. Observational studies have revealed that women with infertility have varying degrees of poor mental status and lifestyle choi…
We aimed to estimate the diagnostic value of DNA methylation levels in cytological samples of endometrial cancer (EC) and atypical hyperplasia (AH). Two hypermethylated genes, namely, cysteine dioxygenase type 1 (CDO1) and zinc finger prote…
Objectives: In this research, we aim to explore the bioinformatic mechanism of infertile endometriosis in order to identify new treatment targets and molecular mechanism. Methods: The Gene Expression Omnibus (GEO) database was used to downl…
MALAT1, microRNA (miR)-142-3p, and CXCR7 are critical molecules mediating endometriosis progression, and their correlation in endometriosis has been barely discussed. Thus, this research sought to survey the impact of MALAT1 on endometrial …
Surgical management for cervical malformation remains as the main therapeutic challenge for gynecologists. A theoretical alternative is to generate a bioengineered uterus cervix, which requires scaffold structure and appropriate cellular co…
Ovarian cancer is the most common and lethal gynecological tumor in women worldwide. High-grade serous ovarian carcinoma (HGSOC) is one of the histological subtypes of epithelial ovarian cancer, accounting for 70%. It often occurs at later …
Abstract Background: Ovarian endometriosis (OE) is a common type of endometrioma, which is a benign disease of gynecology. For the diagnosis of OE, ultrasonography is a very effective and straightforward. OE rupture is rare, and there is st…
BackgroundA key step in embryo implantation is the adhesion to and invasion of the endometrium by the blastocyst trophectoderm. The envelope proteins of HERV-W and -FRD (human endogenous retrovirus-W and -FRD), syncytin-1 and syncytin-2, ar…
Vaginal cancer is a rare disease of the lower genital tract. We present the case of a 54-year-old woman with occult vaginal cancer after hysterectomy for cervical intraepithelial neoplasia (CIN) III. Despite persistently negative cytology a…
RATIONALE: Recurrent massive hemorrhagic ascites secondary to endometriosis is extremely rare in the medical literature. PATIENT CONCERNS: We report the case of a 24-year-old nulliparous woman presenting with severe abdominal distention, ma…
ObjectiveThere are still contradictory opinions on the success rates of uterine artery embolization (UAE) for the treatment of myomas. In this scenario, our study aims to assess the effect of UAE on myoma shrinkage.Materials and methodsThe …
Expression of estrogen receptors is correlated with breast cancer risk, but inconsistent results have been reported. To clarify potential estrogen receptor (ESR)-related breast cancer risk, we analyzed genetic variants ofESR1 in association…
This study aims to determine whether clinical evaluation of improved MyoSure hysteroscopic tissue removal system can remove type II submucosal myomas with safety and high success rate of the first operation.Fifty-three patients with type II…
BackgroundShift work disrupts the circadian rhythm and may cause menstruation disorders. This study assessed the impact of shift work on menstrual cycle in a population of Chinese nurses.MethodsQuestionnaires on menstrual characteristics an…
BackgroundKey opinion leaders (KOLs) are people who can influence public opinion on a certain subject matter. In the field of medical and health informatics, it is critical to identify KOLs on various disease conditions. However, there have…
Risk of Ovarian Malignancy Algorithm (ROMA) combing human epididymis secretary protein 4 (HE4) and CA125 showed better diagnostic accuracy for epithelial ovarian cancer (EOC) when compared with HE4 or CA125 alone; however, other studies sho…
Previous studies have demonstrated the involvement of nerve repellent factors in regulation of the imbalanced innervation of endometriosis. This prospective study aims to explore the role of Sema 3A in regulating aberrant sympathetic innerv…
OBJECTIVE: To investigate the therapeutic mechanism of letrozole, the third-generation aromatase inhibitor, on endometriotic lesions in a rat model and its effect on the apoptosis of ectopic endometrial cells. METHODS: Endometriosis was ind…
Malignant change of endometriosis in a cesarean scar (CS) is rare. We report a case of carcinosarcoma arising from atypical endometriosis in a CS scar, which was successfully treated with complete excision of the lesion and repair of the ab…
OBJECTIVE: To investigate the malignant potential of ovarian atypical endometriosis and ovarian endometrioid adenocarcinoma. METHODS: 12 cases of ovarian endometroid adenocarcinoma with associated endometriosis were reviewed retrospectively…
