Peptide- and protein-based therapeutics offer realized and potential benefits to health, due to their potent bioactivity, high specificity, and favorable safety characteristics. However, their widespread clinical application is constrained …
RATIONALE: Sepsis following hysteroscopy is an rare complication, with current evidence suggesting that routine prophylactic antibiotic administration may not be warranted. However, this does not imply that we should disregard vigilance reg…
Through a combination of single-cell/single-nucleus RNA-Seq (sc/snRNA-Seq) data analysis, immunohistochemistry, and primary macrophage studies, we have identified pathogenic macrophages characterized by Tet methylcytosine dioxygenase 3 (TET…
Ovulatory dysfunction (OD) is one of the main causes of infertility in women of childbearing age, which not only affects their reproductive ability, but also physical and mental health. Traditional treatment strategies have limited efficaci…
OBJECTIVE: To analyze the expression levels of the oocyte-secreted factors growth differentiation factor-9 (GDF-9) and bone morphogenetic protein-15 (BMP-15) in cumulus cells (CCs) under different controlled ovarian stimulation (COS) protoc…
BACKGROUND: This study explores the potential molecular mechanisms underlying the pathogenesis of gastric cancer induced by plasticizers, with particular emphasis on the interactions between plasticizers and key genes and signaling pathways…
BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES: Myocardial ischemia/reperfusion injury (MIRI) is an important factor affecting therapeutic effect and prognosis of acute myocardial infarction. Here, the effects of up-frameshift 1 (UPF1) on cardiomyocyte apoptosi…
INTRODUCTION: The primary clinical challenge associated with follicular thyroid carcinoma (FTC) lies in accurately diagnosing the condition, particularly in distinguishing it with follicular thyroid adenoma (FTA) due to their overlapping cy…
The objective of this study was retrospectively to analyze the clinical characteristics and 18F-FDG PET/CT findings in Meigs syndrome (MS) patients. A total of 21 patients with MS induced by ovarian stromal tumors and 69 patients with pseud…
PurposeEarly detection of hyperlipidemic acute pancreatitis (HLAP) with exacerbation tendency is crucial for clinical decision-making and improving prognosis. The aim of this study was to establish a reliable model for the early prediction …
AIM: We aimed to compare the diagnostic performance of transvaginal sonography (TVS) versus magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) in identifying deep infiltrating endometriosis (DIE) in the rectovaginal septum (RVS) of affected patients. MATERI…
