BACKGROUND: Tuberculosis (TB) is among the top 10 causes of global death, and patient delay is a key factor causing higher mortality. This study intends to analyze the associated factors with TB patient delay. METHODS: Embase, Cochrane Lib…

The paradigm shift of lactate from a mere metabolic byproduct to a pleiotropic signaling molecule, coupled with the discovery of lactylation, provides a crucial framework for understanding how metabolic reprogramming drives systemic patholo…

Endometriosis-associated ovarian cancer (EAOC) is a rare subtype of ovarian cancer arising from the malignant transformation of endometriosis (EMS). Despite growing clinical awareness, its underlying pathogenic mechanisms are not fully unde…

Endometriosis is characterized by progressive fibrosis and limited therapeutic options. Cuproptosis, a copper-dependent form of regulated cell death, has been implicated in multiple pathological conditions, but its relevance to fibroblast-m…

Transient receptor potential vanilloid subtype 1 (TRPV1), a polymodally activated, calcium-permeable non-selective cation channel, is broadly present in all parts of the body, with notable expression in the nociceptive neurons. Both physiol…

Long noncoding RNA (lncRNA) and N6-methyladenosine (m6A) methylation modification have recently been suggested as potential functional modulators in ovarian endometriosis, however, the function and mechanism of m6A-modified lncRNA in ovaria…

Endometriosis is a common gynecological endocrine disease with unclear pathogenesis. Evidence suggests enhanced aerobic glycolysis in ectopic endometrium of endometriosis. The role of N6-methyladenosine (m6A) modification in female reproduc…

BACKGROUND: Organochlorine pesticides (OCPs) are extensively dispersed throughout the environment, which potentially have harmful impacts on the female reproductive system. Therefore, the purpose of this study was to clarify the association…

Uterine mesothelial cysts (UMCs) are rare, benign lesions that arise from the mesothelial lining of the uterus and are only sporadically documented in the literature. Because of their extremely low incidence, the clinical presentation and i…

Endometriosis-related infertility is a prevalent reproductive health concern of global significance. Functional abnormalities of the endometrium are increasingly recognized as a pivotal contributor to infertility in affected individuals. In…

AIMS: The present study aimed to examine the roles of circRNA-circSMAD2 and its regulatory mechanisms in endometriosis (EMs). BACKGROUND: Evidence has confirmed that circRNAs play multiple roles in regulating the occurrence and development…

AIM: Endometriosis is an estrogen-dependent disease with unclear pathogenesis. Recent evidence suggests that ferroptosis plays an important role in the development of endometriosis. In this study, we aimed to explore whether membrane-bound …

Euodiae Fructus (EF) is the dried and nearly ripe fruit of Euodia rutaecarpa, first recorded in Shen Nong's Herbal Classic. EF is a versatile Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) known for the effects of dispelling colds and alleviating pain,…

Endometriosis is a chronic inflammatory gynecological condition marked by the presence of tissue similar to the endometrium grows outside the uterus, often leading pelvic pain and infertility. This study explores how enhancer of zeste homol…

BACKGROUND: endometriosis as a common gynecologic finding significantly affects the quality of life of many women. An accurate understanding of the epidemiological characteristics of endometriosis is essential for disease control and preven…

OBJECTIVE: To analyse global prevalence data for infertility due to endometriosis from 1990 to 2021, emphasising health inequalities. DESIGN: Population-based study. SETTING: Data from the Global Burden of Disease (GBD) database. POPULAT…

Autoimmune diseases are driven by a breach of self-tolerance, leading to chronic inflammation and organ damage. While the Th1 and Th17 paradigms have long dominated our understanding of T-cell-mediated pathology, a distinct subset of CD4+ T…

ABSTRACT: The effectiveness of the GnRH antagonist protocol remains controversial due to inconsistent conclusions and inadequate subgroup analyses. The aim of this study was to provide some references for clinicians when choosing the GnRH a…

BACKGROUND: Epithelial ovarian cancer (EOC) currently lacks highly specific biomarkers for clinical screening. This study aimed to identify and validate novel auxiliary diagnostic markers for EOC. METHODS: Through integrated analysis of tr…

Endometriosis (EMs) is a chronic inflammatory disorder featured by infertility and pain. The role of N6-methyladenosine (m6A) in EMs has been evidenced. This study investigated the molecular mechanism of METTL14-m6A-KLF4 modulating macropha…

OBJECTIVE: Effective early diagnosis and timely intervention in acute pancreatitis (AP) are essential for improving patient outcomes. This study aims to evaluate the clinical utility of the neutrophil CD64 index (nCD64) in stratifying patie…

BACKGROUND: Endometrial thickness measurement (EMT) is not a reliable predictor of clinical pregnancy in Asherman syndrome (AS) patients. The aim of this study is to investigate the impact of endometrial patterns on reproductive outcomes in…

BACKGROUND: Hydroxyurea (HU) is an antitumor drug. However, HU exposure is associated with diminished ovarian reserve (DOR). Zi Chong granules, a Chinese Medicine, can protect against DOR, but little is known regarding its underlying mechan…

Endometriosis is a benign gynecological disease that shares some common features of malignancy. Autophagy plays vital roles in endometriosis and influences endometrial cell metastasis, and hypoxia was identified as the initiator of this pat…

Epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT) is a vital pathological feature of silica-induced pulmonary fibrosis. However, whether circRNA is involved in the process remains unclear. The present study aimed to investigate the role of circPVT1 i…
