BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVE: Diagnosis and treatment strategies for adenomyosis are influenced by multiple factors, including patient preferences, adenomyosis subtype, and disease progression, with no standardized protocol currently establishe…

Abstract Objective This study aims to systematically compare the short-term efficacy and safety differences between daily oral 2 mg Dienogest (DNG) and daily oral 10 mg Mifepristone (MIF) in the treatment of patients with symptomatic aden…

BACKGROUND: Small cell carcinoma of the ovary (SCCO) is a rare, highly aggressive malignancy comprising pulmonary type (SCCOPT) and hypercalcemic type (SCCOHT). Clinical presentations are nonspecific, and CT features remain poorly defined. …

IntroductionThe identification of severe acute pancreatitis (SAP) is paramount for effective patient management, but the gold standard for diagnosing SAP requires over 48 h of organ failure, which may delay timely treatment. Hence, this stu…

Systems biology is primarily concerned with the dynamic study of biochemical metabolic processes in physical systems, the interplay of multiple signal transduction routes, gene regulatory networks, and disease causes, among other things. It…

Clinical application of mesenchymal stem cells for endometrial repair has been hampered by variability in cell quality, large-scale production, and uncertainty regarding the optimal delivery route. In this study, we investigated the therape…

PURPOSE: Adenomyosis (AM) with dysmenorrhea (AMD) is a global public health concern that may involve abnormal brain function and heightened vulnerability to anxiety and depression. This study aimed to investigate static and dynamic regional…

BACKGROUND: The abdominal wall is one of the rare sites of endometriosis, and its clinical incidence is increasing year by year with the increasing cesarean section rate nowadays. METHODS: A retrospective analysis was made on patients with…

ObjectivesAcute pancreatitis, recurrent acute pancreatitis, and chronic pancreatitis are recognized as a continuum of pancreatic diseases. Recurrence increases the risk of progression to chronic pancreatitis. The aim of this study was to se…

Thoracic endometriosis syndrome is a rare form of endometriosis in which endometrial tissue is thought to migrate to the lungs and, with the onset of menstruation, the ectopic foci bleed, causing a range of pulmonary manifestations. In this…

This study investigates changes in regional homogeneity (ReHo) of the brain in patients with adenomyosis accompanied by dysmenorrhea (AMD) before and after uterine artery embolization (UAE) surgery. ReHo is a resting-state functional magnet…

ObjectiveTo evaluate the early pregnancy loss (EPL) rates in women with and without low molecular weight heparin (LMWH) treatment during early pregnancy.MethodsA retrospective, non-randomized study was conducted at Guangzhou Women and Child…

We report the findings of a genome-wide association study (GWAS) meta-analysis of endometriosis across 14 biobanks worldwide, including 32% non-European patient participants, as part of the Global Biobank Meta-Analysis Initiative (GBMI). Ou…

BACKGROUND: Adenomyosis is a prevalent gynecological condition among women of reproductive age and is commonly associated with heavy menstrual bleeding, severe dysmenorrhea, and infertility. These symptoms impose a substantial burden on bot…

ObjectiveThe potential association between rheumatoid arthritis (RA) and cervical cancer risk is still debated and necessitates additional clinical investigations. This study aimed to explore this relationship using Mendelian randomization …

BackgroundAberrant N6-methyladenosine (m6A) modification is linked to cancer development and progression. However, the role of YTH N6-methyladenosine RNA binding protein F2 (YTHDF2), an m6A 'reader protein', in nasopharyngeal carcinoma (NPC…

This report described three cases with long-term severe dysmenorrhea, and these cases were referred to our department for medical help. The diagnosis of accessory cavitated uterine malformation (ACUM) was considered based on symptoms and ul…

Abstract Objective To analyse and summarise the clinical characteristics, diagnosis, treatment and prognostic features of abdominal wall endometriosis. Methods A retrospective analysis of patients with abdominal wall endometriosis who atte…

OBJECTIVE: To establish a rat model of pharmacological ovariectomy by GnRH-a injection and to preliminarily investigate the reproductive endocrine effects of Xiangshao granules on pharmacologically ovariectomized rats. METHODS: A rat model …

Endometriosis is a complex and heterogeneous condition affecting 10% of reproductive-age women, and yet, it often goes undiagnosed for several years. Limited observed heritability (7%) of large genetic association studies may be attributabl…

BACKGROUND: Endometriosis affects 10% of reproductive-age women, and yet, it goes undiagnosed for 3.6 years on average after symptoms onset. Despite large GWAS meta-analyses (N > 750,000), only a few dozen causal loci have been identified. …

We report the findings of a genome-wide association study (GWAS) meta-analysis of endometriosis consisting of a large portion (31%) of non-European samples across 14 biobanks worldwide as part of the Global Biobank Meta-Analysis Initiative …

BACKGROUND: Ovarian endometriotic cysts (OEC) represent the primary manifestation of endometriosis, constituting a hormonally dependent inflammatory disorder in gynecology. It significantly affects the quality of life and reproductive healt…

Insulin-like growth factor 2 mRNA binding protein 2 (IGF2BP2), a significant member of the conserved RNA-binding protein family, plays various roles in numerous physiological and pathological processes. However, the specific function of IGF…
