Macrophages, as the predominant phagocytes, play an essential role in pathogens defense and tissue homeostasis maintenance. In the context of cancer, tumor-associated macrophages (TAMs) have evolved into cunning actors involved in angiogene…

Ovarian endometrioma (OMA), an estrogen-dependent gynecological disorder, is characterized by the presence of abundant free iron resulting from recurrent hemorrhage of endometrial cells within the cyst, which adversely affects ovarian funct…

Molecular classification has emerged as a critical tool for guiding personalized treatment in endometrial cancer (EC) and atypical endometrial hyperplasia (AEH). This retrospective study aimed to assess the impact of molecular classificatio…

Guillain-Barré syndrome (GBS) and autoimmune gastritis (AIG) are both autoimmune diseases (ADs) that have a low prevalence in China. Both conditions involve the immune system mistakenly attacking the body's own tissues. GBS primarily affect…

BackgroundVaginectomy has been shown to be effective for select patients with vaginal high-grade squamous intraepithelial lesions (HSIL) and is favored by gynecologists, while there are few reports on the robotic-assisted laparoscopic vagin…

A 35-year-old woman with a history of laparoscopic myomectomy presented with repeated abdominal pain. Contrast-enhanced abdominal and pelvic CT showed multiple enhancing solid or mixed cystic and solid peritoneal masses, and an enhancing ut…

The aim of this study was to explore whether the presence of intra-cavitary fluid (ICF) influences the pregnancy outcomes of patients with caesarean section (CS) in embryo transfer cycles. A total of 8494 transferred cycles of 4924 women we…

Backgroundthe 18-kDa translocator protein (TSPO) is a mitochondrial outer membrane protein, and its expression tends to increase in response to inflammatory stimulation, rapidly. However, the role of TSPO in inflammation and pyroptosis is n…

Background: It has not been fully elucidated whether the change of the uterus flora is correlated to impaired fecundity. This case-control study aimed to analyze the differences in uterus microbial flora between women with post-cesarean sec…

ObjectiveTo examine potential risk factors associated with the success rate following fallopian tube recanalization (FTR) in infertile women with obstruction of the proximal fallopian tube.MethodsWe retrospectively studied patients who unde…

OBJECTIVE: To investigate the mechanism of LncRNA H19 in Th17 cell differentiation and endometrial stromal cells (ESCs) proliferation in endometriosis (EMS). METHODS: LncRNA H19, miR-342-3p and IER3 expressions were detected by qRT-PCR and …

ObjectiveTo study the structural relationship between annexin A4 and the Lewis y antigen and compare their expression and significance in ovarian clear cell carcinoma, and to explore how annexin A4 fucose glycosylation effects the interacti…

OBJECTIVE: To compare the in vitro fertilisation (IVF) outcomes of poor ovarian responders among women with laparoscopically diagnosed minimal-mild endometriosis (Group A), moderate-severe endometriosis (Group B) and those without endometri…

BackgroundIt is well-known that the treatment and monitoring methods are limited for advanced stage of endometrial carcinoma. Biological molecules with expression changes during tumor progression become potential therapeutic targets for adv…

Aims. The aim of this study is to compare our results of preoperative chemotherapy followed by pancreaticoduodenectomy (PD) with those of surgery alone in patients with localized resectable pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC). Methods. …

OBJECTIVES: We aimed to investigate the nature of endometrial stromal sarcoma (ESS) arising from endometriosis. METHODS: The clinical data of 5 patients with ESS arising from endometriosis were reviewed retrospectively. The expression of C…
