BACKGROUND: Elagolix and Myfembree are gonadotropin-releasing hormone (GnRH)-pathway therapies used for endometriosis, but their post-marketing safety reporting patterns remain incompletely characterized. Because spontaneous reporting datab…
OBJECTIVE: To investigate the effect of pelvic adhesions on reproductive outcomes following high-intensity focused ultrasound (HIFU) ablation in patients with adenomyosis. METHODS: A total of 396 patients with adenomyosis underwent HIFU, i…
Synopsis PET/CT can differentiate between endometriosis, the malignant progression of endometriosis, and ovarian cysts.
OBJECTIVE: To report the long-term re-intervention of patients with uterine fibroids after ultrasound-guided high-intensity focused ultrasound (USgHIFU) ablation and to analyse the influencing factors of re-intervention in patients in the N…
OBJECTIVE: To investigate the influencing factors of ultrasound-guided HIFU (USgHIFU) ablation for adenomyosis with a non-perfused volume ratio (NPVR)≥50%. METHODS: A total of 299 patients with adenomyosis who underwent USgHIFU ablation we…
Antibiotic therapy is the primary treatment for bovine mastitis, but the drawbacks of this strategy include poor cure rate and economic losses from the need to discard milk with antibiotic residues. Unfortunately, few other treatment option…
OBJECTIVE: To explore the influencing factors of decision-making in patients with adenomyosis, who are receiving high-intensity focused ultrasound (HIFU) treatment. METHODS: A total of 776 patients with adenomyosis were enrolled into HIFU …
OBJECTIVE: To compare the therapeutic effect of high-intensity focused ultrasound (HIFU) ablation and HIFU pretreated with gonadotropin-releasing hormone analogue (GnRH-a) in the treatment of hyperintense uterine fibroids on T2-weighted mag…
Objective: To evaluate factors in predicting the treatment outcome of ultrasound-guided high-intensity focused ultrasound (USgHIFU) ablation for uterine fibroids with a non-perfused volume ratio (NPVR) of at least 80%. Methods: One thousand…
BACKGROUND: Due to a lack of evidence from large-scale epidemiological studies by far on this issue, whether there is a link between Angelica sinensis exposure and breast cancer risk remained inconclusive. METHODS: We conducted a populatio…
Diabetic peripheral neuropathy (DPN) is caused by hyperglycemia, which induces oxidative stress and inflammatory responses that damage nerve tissue. Excessive generation of reactive oxygen species (ROS) and NOD-like receptor protein 3 (NLRP…
OBJECTIVE: This meta-analysis aims to investigate serum androgen profiles (testosterone, dehydroepiandrosterone sulfate, androstenedione, and sex hormone-binding globulin) in women with premature ovarian failure and to establish if there is…
OBJECTIVES: The aim of this study was to evaluate the effect of abdominal liposuction on sonographically guided high-intensity focused ultrasound (HIFU) ablation. METHODS: A total of 10 women with uterine fibroids or adenomyosis who had re…
BACKGROUND: Each organ has a specific function in the body. "Organ-specificity" refers to differential expressions of the same gene across different organs. An organ-specific gene/protein is defined as a gene/protein whose expression is sig…
OBJECTIVE: To assess the midterm outcomes after ultrasound-guided high-intensity focused ultrasound (HIFU) ablation in treatment of patients with symptomatic adenomyosis. DESIGN: A prospective clinical trial. SETTING: University teaching …
