RationaleThe accurate classification of retroperitoneal neoplasms remains challenging, particularly when distinguishing between epithelioid leiomyoma and perivascular epitheloid cell tumor (PEComa) due to significant histological and immuno…

This study aims to assess associations of dyslipidemia with in vitro fertilization/intracytoplasmic sperm injection outcomes in women undergoing their first ovarian stimulation and whether age, body mass index, or lipid levels modify these …

RATIONALE: Adenomyosis and simple endometrial hyperplasia are common benign gynecological conditions. However, atypical presentations with extreme endometrial thickening and associated diagnostic challenges have rarely been reported. PATIE…

BACKGROUND: Endometriosis (EMs) is a common gynecological disorder associated with impaired fertility and reduced quality of life. This study investigated abnormal spindle-like microcephaly-associated protein (ASPM), identified as a hub gen…

Pelvic inflammatory disease (PID), a prevalent gynecological ailment compromising women's health, demonstrates established risk mitigation from dietary trace minerals. However, iron's role in PID pathogenesis remains unestablished. The Nati…

Research on the association between urinary heavy metals, phthalates, phytoestrogens (PEs), polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs), and endometriosis (EM) is limited. Data were from the National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey 1999…

Identification of appropriate biomarkers is of great clinical significance for early diagnosis of endometriosis (EMs). This study aimed to comprehensively analyze the association between EMs and blood and urine biomarkers (BUB). Candidate E…

The C-reactive protein-triglyceride glucose index (CTI) is a novel marker that integrates systemic inflammation and insulin resistance, both of which are associated with renal injury. However, population-based data on its associations with …

It has been proved that lipids have an effect on endometriosis, and the plasma atherosclerosis index (AIP), as a new lipid index, has not been proved to be correlative to endometriosis. The National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey f…
