BackgroundCervical cancer is a common malignant tumor in the female. Interleukin (IL)-17A is a proinflammatory factor and exerts a vital function in inflammatory diseases and cancers. M2 macrophage has been confirmed to promote tumor develo…
Phenome-wide association studies (PheWAS) have been less focused on maternal diseases and maternal-newborn comorbidities, especially in the Chinese population. To enhance our understanding of the genetic basis of these related diseases, we …
BACKGROUND Tumor-infiltrating immune cells (TIICs) are implicated in the survival of ovarian cancer (OVCA) patients, but their prognostic significance in advanced or metastatic OVCA patients treated with neoadjuvant chemotherapy (NCAT) has …
Intra-abdominal adhesions have consistently posed a challenge for surgeons during procedures. This study aims to investigate the feasibility of utilizing indocyanine green (ICG) in conjunction with near-infrared imaging for the detection of…
Helicobacter pylori is a prevalent bacterial pathogen globally, implicated in various gastrointestinal disorders. Current recommended antibiotic therapies for H. pylori infection have been proven to be therapeutically insufficient, with low…
An accessory cavitated uterine mass (ACUM) is a very rare obstructive genital malformation characterized by pelvic pain and severe dysmenorrhea. It is easily mistaken for other obstructive genital malformations in women, such as cystic uter…
BackgroundOvarian cancer remains a leading cause of death among women, largely due to its asymptomatic early stages and high mortality when diagnosed late. Early detection significantly improves survival rates, and the Ovarian-Adnexal Repor…
Autophagy has emerged as an important process of cell metabolism. With continuous in-depth research on autophagy, TFEB has been a key transcription factor regulating autophagy levels in recent years. Studies have established that TFEB regul…
Follicle development refers to the process in which the follicles in the ovary gradually develop from the primary stage to a mature state, and most primary follicles fail to develop normally, without forming a dense granular cell layer and …
Abstract Objective This study aims to elucidate the spectrum of obstetrical complications in patients with endometriosis-associated infertility following complete laparoscopic excision of endometriosis lesions, and to assess the impact of…
Extracellular vesicles (EVs) play a key role in various diseases. However, their effect on endometriosis (EMs)-associated infertility is poorly understood. We co-cultured EVs from the female vaginal secretions with human sperm and also gene…
Previous studies have screened key candidate genes for litter size in sheep, including fibrillin-1 (FBN1), family with sequence similarity 184 member B (FAM184B) and zinc finger and AT-hook domain containing (ZFAT). Therefore, it is necessa…
Progesterone (P4) is required for the preparation of the endometrium for a successful pregnancy. P4 resistance is a leading cause of the pathogenesis of endometrial disorders like endometriosis, often leading to infertility; however, the un…
Follicular atresia occurs in every stage of ovarian development, which is relevant to female fertility. In the past decade, increasing studies have confirmed that miRNAs, a class of short non-coding RNAs, play an important role in follicula…
PURPOSE: The objective of this study was to investigate the key glycolysis-related genes linked to immune cell infiltration in endometriosis and to develop a new endometriosis (EMS) predictive model. METHODS: A training set and a test set …
The litter trait is one of the most important economic traits, and increasing litter size is of great economic value in the pig industry. However, the molecular mechanisms underlying pig litter traits remain elusive. To identify molecular m…
Although non-invasive and minimally invasive aesthetic procedures increasingly dominate the cosmetic market, traditional plastic surgery remains the most effective improvement method. One of the most common complications in plastic surgery,…
OBJECTIVE: To map the peritoneal autoantibody (AAb) landscape in women with endometriosis. DESIGN: Case-control laboratory study. SETTING: Academic medical and research units. PATIENT(S): Women who presented with or without endometriosis…
Adenomyosis has been associated with adverse fertility and pregnancy outcomes, and its impact on the outcomes of in vitro fertilization (IVF) has received much attention. It is controversial whether the freeze-all strategy is better than fr…
BackgroundConsiderable attention has been paid to reproductive toxicity of fine particulate matter (PM2.5). However, the relationship between prenatal PM2.5 exposure and anogenital distance (AGD) has not been well studied. We aim to investi…
Almost all eukaryotes need oxygen to maintain regular physiological activities. When the organism is under hypoxic situation for a persistent or periodic, it will induce irreversible physiological disorders and even pathological results. Hy…
BACKGROUND: The etiology of systemic lupus erythematosus is complex and incurable. A large number of systematic reviews have studied the risk factors of it. Mendelian randomization is an analytical method that uses genetic data as tool vari…
BackgroundChronic endometritis (CE) is a disease of continuous and subtle inflammation occurring in the endometrial stromal area, which is often asymptomatic or present with non-specific clinical symptoms.MethodsThis study investigated the …
OBJECTIVE: To investigate the roles of the cGAS-STING signal pathway and autophagy in the disease progression of endometriosis and to explore the regulatory mechanism of the cGAS-STING signal pathway on autophagy. DESIGN: A case-control ex…
ObjectiveOur study aimed to elucidate the effect of PAI-1 (Plasminogen Activator Inhibitor-1) and t-PA (Tissue-type Plasminogen Activator) in tissue remodeling in nasal polyps patients.MethodsSamples were streamed as early Nasal Polyps (eNP…
