BACKGROUND: Endometriosis (EMS) and inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) are both chronic inflammatory disorders with overlapping clinical features, suggesting a potentially shared etiology. Although epidemiological studies have reported an ass…

BACKGROUND: Endometriosis is a chronic gynecological disorder characterized by the presence of endometrial-like tissue outside the uterine cavity, causing chronic pain and infertility. Hypoxia plays a significant role in the progression of …

Background: The relationship between endometriosis and cardiovascular disease (CVD) is well established. However, the effects of various exercise training modalities and the anti-inflammatory effects of pentoxifylline (PTX) remain inadequat…

INTRODUCTION: Inflammatory mechanisms mediate neuropathies in patients with endometriosis. The ENA-78 and CGRP genes are involved in pain signaling and inflammatory responses in these patients. However, the regulatory role of miRNAs targeti…

Background: The interplay between breast cancer treatment and osteoporosis has important consequences for anticancer therapy and patient bone health. Many breast cancer therapies involve hormonal treatments that lower estrogen levels, which…

BACKGROUND: Recently, it has been suggested that microbial infections play a role in the pathogenesis of endometriosis. One of the most commonly suggested infections associated with the pathogenesis of endometriosis is human papillomavirus …

BACKGROUND: Endometriosis is a clinical condition associated with genetic, endocrine, and immunological factors, present in 6 to 10% of women of reproductive age. Currently, the human microbiota has been studied and associated with the evol…

Scutellaria (Lamiaceae), which contains over 350 species, usually known as skullcaps, is found throughout Europe, the United States, and East Asia. In traditional Chinese medicine, several species are used to wipe out heat-evil and remove s…

Background . Research into the pathogenesis of endometriosis would substantially promote its effective treatment and early diagnosis. Currently, accumulating evidence has shed light on the importance of endometrial stem cells within the men…

BackgroundIncreasing evidence has shown that necroptosis has enormous significance in the generation and deterioration of cancer, and miRNA molecular markers involved in necroptosis in low-grade gliomas (LGGs) have not been thoroughly repor…

ObjectiveTo use the logistic regression model to evaluate the value of ultrasound characteristics in the Ovarian-Adnexal Reporting and Data System ultrasound lexicon in determining ovarian solid component-containing mass benignancy/malignan…

ObjectiveTo investigate the risk of ovarian malignancy in middle-aged and elderly women with rheumatoid arthritis (RA) and its correlation with disease activity.Methods219 middle-aged and elderly (age ≥ 40) female RA patients who were treat…

The rapid detection of etiological agents is important for the successful treatment of iliopsoas abscess (IPA). The purpose of this study was to investigate the clinical utility of a real-time polymerase chain reaction (PCR) that targets th…

Background: Endometriosis (EMs) is a benign chronic condition that tends to recur in women of childbearing age, with an incidence of approximately 10%. It is a multifactorial disease for which the pathogenesis is currently unclear. This stu…

BackgroundPolycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) is the major reason for women's low fertility and the most frequent endocrine disorder in women of childbearing age. Homocysteine is an amino acid that contains sulfur that has been negatively corr…

ObjectiveTo investigate the effect of hysteroscopy surgery combined with Mirena on postoperative adverse reactions and recurrence rate of endometrial polyps (EP).MethodsA total of 312 patients who underwent hysteroscopic polypectomy of EP i…

EMs is a kind of benign disease with certain malignant behaviors. The adhesion, invasive growth, and angiogenesis of ectopic endometrial cells are the pathological basis of EMs occurrence, but its etiology and pathogenesis have not been com…

Uterine artery embolization (UAE) is a common minimally invasive treatment of different uterine pathologies, such as fibroids, adenomyosis, and menorrhagia. The procedure involves the injection of embolic agents into the uterine arteries, w…

PurposeMesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) and their derivant are among the promising treatments for intrauterine adhesion (IUA); they have been reported to repair the endometrial injury by proliferating endometrial cells. However, the signal pat…

ObjectiveTo compare hysterectomy by transvaginal natural orifice transluminal endoscopic surgery (VNOTES) versus transumbilical laparoscopic single-site surgery (LESS) as a minimal invasive technique. Materials and Method. The women undergo…

Emerging evidence has indicated that aberrantly expressed long noncoding RNAs (lncRNAs) play a vital role in various biological processes associated with tumorigenesis. Leukemia inhibitory factor receptor antisense RNA1 (LIFR-AS1) is a rece…

BACKGROUND: Palmitoylethanolamide is reported to solve pain and neuroinflammation in different models of chronic and neurodegenerative diseases. Some concerns have been illustrated for cautiously interpreting the available literature on the…

Primary dysmenorrhea (PD) is a prevalent problem in gynecologic clinics among adolescents and women of reproductive age. Several therapy modalities, including traditional Chinese medicine, are deemed adequate (TCM) and have been in practice…

Placental tissues encompass all the tissues which support fetal development, including the placenta, placental membrane, umbilical cord, and amniotic fluid. Since the 1990s there has been renewed interest in the use of these tissues as a ra…
