BACKGROUND: To explore the incidence of chronic endometritis (CE) in patients with infertility and different forms of adenomyosis and analyze potential high-risk factors for infection. METHODS: This retrospective cohort study included 154 …
BackgroundGrowth hormone (GH) could improve the outcomes of in vitro fertilization and embryo transfer (IVF-ET) in patients with decreased ovarian reserve (DOR), but which age group will benefit the most has remained controversial. This stu…
IntroductionPrimary cilia play an important role in the development of cancer by regulating signaling pathways. Several studies have demonstrated that women with BRCA mutations have, on average, 50% fewer ciliated cells compared with genera…
BackgroundMenopause significantly impacts the immune system. Postmenopausal women are more susceptible to infection. Nonetheless, the pattern of change in peripheral white blood cell counts around the menopause remains poorly understood.Met…
IntroductionMenstrual blood-derived stem cells (MenSCs) are vital in treating many degenerative and traumatic disorders. However, the underlying molecular mechanisms remain obscure in MenSCs-treating spinal cord injury (SCI) rats.MethodsMen…
PURPOSE: To assess the clinical characteristics and the risk factors related to the unfavorable prognosis of endometrioid ovarian carcinoma (EOVC) based on data from the Surveillance, Epidemiology, and End Results (SEER) database and two cl…
BackgroundLittle is known about the relationship between early life body size and occurrence of life-course multiple chronic diseases (multimorbidity). We aim to evaluate associations of birth weight, childhood body size, and their changes …
ObjectiveThis study aims to explore formula patterns and application rules for SP6 as the main acupoint in prescriptions, utilizing association rules.MethodsWe conducted an extensive search in databases including China National Knowledge In…
Endometriosis is a hormone-dependent disease in women of reproductive age and seriously affects women's health. To analyze the involvement of sex hormone receptors in endometriosis development, we performed bioinformatics analysis using fou…
PurposeTo compare the safety, feasibility, and effectiveness of transvaginal natural orifice transluminal endoscopic sacrocolpopexy (vNOTES-SC) and laparoendoscopic single-site sacrocolpopexy (LESS-SC) for pelvic organ prolapse (POP).Method…
PurposeThis study aimed to identify the risk factors and sonographic variables that could be integrated into a predictive model for endometrial cancer (EC) and atypical endometrial hyperplasia (AEH) in women with abnormal uterine bleeding (…
The well-known impact of ovarian endometriosis on female quality of life and the established role of lncRNA LINC01465 in ovarian cancer pathogenesis have been extensively documented; however, the relationship between LINC01465 and ovarian e…
Decidualization of endometrial stromal cells is a hallmark of endometrial receptivity for embryo implantation, and dysfunctional decidualization is associated with pregnancy failure. Protein glycosylation is an important posttranslational m…
PurposeTo evaluate whether outcomes of in vitro fertilization (IVF) are affected during the coronavirus disease-19 (COVID-19) pandemic.MethodsThis was a single-center, retrospective study. Embryo development, pregnancy, and live birth outco…
Evaluation of tubal patency is one of the vital steps in the process of female infertility management. Hysterosalpingo-contrast Sonography (HyCoSy) has become the first-line recommendation for evaluating tubal patency. However, there remain…
Background: Long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs) have been confirmed to play vital roles in tumorigenesis. LncRNA MYU has recently been reported as an oncogene in several kinds of tumors. However, MYU's expression status and potential involvement…
BACKGROUND/AIM: Endometriosis is an estrogen-dependent disease characterized by the ectopic implantation and growth of endometrial tissue outside the uterus. Endometrial stromal cells (ESCs) play a crucial role in the pathogenesis of endome…
Endometriosis is a common, estrogen-dependent chronic gynecological disease that endangers the reproductive system and systemic metabolism of patients. We aimed to investigate the differences in metabolic profiles in the follicular fluid be…
Ovarian clear cell carcinomas (OCCCs) are a subtype of ovarian epithelial tumors that arise from the malignant transformation of endometriosis (EMs). These tumors have distinctive molecular features, high malignant potential, low sensitivit…
Endometriosis, an estrogen-dependent chronic inflammatory disease characterized by the growth of endometrium-like tissues outside the uterine cavity, affects 10% of reproductive-age women. Although the pathogenesis of endometriosis is uncer…
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-…
INTRODUCTION: Endometriosis (EM) is an aggressive, pleomorphic, and common gynecological disease. Its clinical presentation includes abnormal menstruation, dysmenorrhea, and infertility, which seriously affect the patient's quality of life.…
Abstract Background Endometriosis development is associated with peritoneal immune microenvironment abnormality. However, the specific mechanism is uncertain. Investigating peritoneal immune microenvironment regulation mechanisms could intr…
BackgroundGlutathione-S transferases (GSTs) comprise a series of critical enzymes involved in detoxification of endogenous or xenobiotic compounds. Among several GSTs, Glutathione S-transferases mu (GSTM) has been implicated in a number of …
IntroductionCesarean scar defect (CSD) is a long-term outcome of cesarean section (CS) and associated with numerous gynecological and obstetric problems. Previous studies indicate that infection may be a risk factor for CSD. Adjunctive azit…
