Research questionWhich metabolites are altered in the peritoneal cavity of women with endometriosis? Could the mouse endometriosis model simulate these alterations?DesignThirteen women with endometriosis and seven women with other benign gy…

Major depressive disorder (MDD) is highly prevalent and is a significant cause of mortality and morbidity worldwide. Currently, conventional pharmacological treatments for MDD produce temporary remission in < 50% of patients; therefore, the…

Endometriosis is a common and benign gynecological disorder but exhibits malignant features. However, the underlying pathogenesis and pathophysiology of endometriosis remain unclear. Circular RNAs have been demonstrated to participate in th…

BACKGROUND: The management of ground-glass opacities (GGOs) depends mainly on personal experience. In clinical practice, benign GGOs are not rare in resected specimens, for which operations may be avoided. We retrospectively compared the cl…

Objective: To explore the effects of free perforator propeller flap from buttock in repairing deep wound of buttock. Methods: From February 2016 to May 2018, 27 patients with buttock skin and soft tissue defects caused by various reasons we…

BackgroundGastric cancer (GC) is one of the major public health problems worldwide with high morbidity and mortality. Nowadays, traditional medicine may hold promise for the treatment of cancers. Gossypol-acetic acid (GAA) is a male contrac…

Abstract Background: Endometriosis is a progressive and benign disease characterized by the presence of endometrial glands and stroma tissue outside of the uterine cavity. Though endometriosis is a benign disease, it has the characteristics…

AIMS: To compare the efficacy of gonadotropin-releasing hormone agonist (GnRH-a) and GnRH-a + levonorgestrel-releasing intrauterine system (LNG-IUS) after adenomyomectomy for improved adenomyosis-associated symptoms. METHODS: Overall, 193 p…

BACKGROUND: Circular RNAs (circRNAs) with miRNA response elements (MREs) could function as competing endogenous RNA (ceRNA) in regulating gene expression, thus playing vital roles in pathogenesis and progression of many diseases. However, t…

Pancreatic disease, including pathologies such as acute pancreatitis (AP), chronic pancreatitis (CP), and pancreatic cancer (PC), is a complicated and dangerous clinical condition involving the disruption of exocrine or endocrine function. …

Endometriosis is one of the most common benign gynecological diseases. It shows similar attributes to those of some fatal tumors if it is becomes malignant. These attributes include invasion, implantation, and recurrence. Epidemiological, c…

Endometriosis is a common multifactorial gynecological disorder defined as the proliferation of endometrial tissue outside of the uterine cavity. Neuroangiogenesis (co-recruitment of nerves and blood vessels) is believed to play an integral…

Endometriosis (Ems) is a condition that refers to the ectopic implantation and growth of endometrial tissue outside the uterine cavity. The aim of the present study was to investigate the role of microRNA‑138 (miR‑138) in Ems and the possib…

STUDY QUESTION: Do exosomes play a role in the pathogenesis of endometriosis in a murine model? SUMMARY ANSWER: Exosomes from endometriosis (EMS) can alternatively activate macrophages and thus contribute to the development of lesions in mi…

Abstract Endometrial cells and microenvironment are two important factors in the pathogenesis of adenomyosis. Our previous study demonstrated that macrophages can induce eutopic epithelial cells of adenomyosis to suffer from epithelial–mese…

STUDY QUESTION: What happens to the gut microbiota during development of murine endometriosis? SUMMARY ANSWER: Mice with the persistence of endometrial lesions for 42 days develop a distinct composition of gut microbiota. WHAT IS KNOWN ALRE…

OBJECTIVE: The aim of this study was to evaluate the association between -1195 A/G polymorphism in cyclooxygenase-2 (COX-2) gene and the risk of pain occurrence in women with endometriosis (EM). MATERIALS AND METHODS: -1195 A/G polymorphism…

Osteonecrosis of the femoral head (ONFH) is a common hip joint disease, and steroid-induced ONFH accounts for a large number of cases. Here, we examined eight previously-identified single-nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) in the MPP2 and MPP9…

ObjectiveTo investigate the therapeutic effect and safety of high-intensity focused ultrasound (HIFU) therapy combined with gemcitabine in treating unresectable pancreatic carcinoma.MethodsThe 45 patients suffering from pancreatic carcinoma…

Adenomyosis is a nonneoplastic condition characterized by the benign invasion of ectopic endometrium into the myometrium. Macrophages play significant roles in epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT) and adenomyosis. An EMT associated with …

Endoscopic submucosal dissection (ESD) is an innovative advance in the treatment of early gastrointestinal (GI) cancer without lymph node metastases and precancerous lesions as it is an effective and safe therapeutic method. ESD has also be…

Polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) progression involves abnormal insulin signaling. SH2 domain-containing adaptor protein (Lnk) may be an important regulator of the insulin signaling pathway. We investigated whether Lnk was involved in insuli…

The concurrent increases in global population and sexually transmitted infection (STI) demand a search for agents with dual spermicidal and microbicidal properties for topical vaginal application. Previous attempts to develop the surfactant…

STUDY QUESTION: What are the features of peritoneal macrophage subgroups and T helper cells in the development of murine endometriosis? SUMMARY ANSWER: ) cells are increased. WHAT IS KNOWN ALREADY: Numerous studies investigating the etiolog…
