Background/Objectives: Guizhi Fuling Capsule (GZFL), a Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) formula, is widely used for primary dysmenorrhea and other blood-stasis gynecological disorders. This study aimed to characterize its material basis, …
OBJECTIVE: Our study aims to establish and validate a diagnostic scoring system for distinguishing malignant cystic ovarian tumors (MCOTs) from benign cystic ovarian tumors (BCOTs). METHODS: The study population was sourced from two indepe…
BACKGROUND: To a large extent, the ovarian reserve determines a woman's reproductive potential. The etiological and pathological mechanisms of diminished ovarian reserve (DOR) remain unclear, and no reliable treatment is currently available…
Fibrosis, marked by excessive extracellular matrix (ECM) accumulation, underlies functional decline in numerous diseases and often presents with sex-specific differences in severity. Although biochemical pathways have been widely studied, t…
BACKGROUND: Adenomyosis is a common benign gynecological disease. Patients often experience abnormal uterine bleeding, dysmenorrhea, and infertility. Percutaneous microwave ablation (PMWA) is a minimally invasive method used for treating ad…
STUDY OBJECTIVE: To evaluate and compare the clinical efficacy of transabdominal ultrasound-guided percutaneous microwave ablation (PMWA) in the treatment of symptomatic focal and nonfocal adenomyosis. DESIGN: Retrospective cohort study. …
OBJECTIVE: This study evaluated the clinical efficacy of myometrial and endometrial microwave ablation (MEWA) for treating adenomyosis in patients with anemia. METHODS: This retrospective study enrolled 64 patients with adenomyosis who had…
OBJECTIVE: This study explores the feasibility and value of three-dimensional ultrasound virtual organ computer-aided analysis (3D-VOCAL) combined with contrast-enhanced ultrasound (CEUS) for measuring the non-perfused volume (NPV) after mi…
FBXO protein 45 (FBXO45), a substrate-recognition subunit of E3 ligases, has been characterised to have pivotal roles in many human diseases, including nervous system diseases, inflammatory diseases and human malignancies. In this article, …
BACKGROUND/AIMS: T-cell immunoglobulin and mucin domain 3 (Tim-3) assumedly play a crucial immunomodulatory role in inflammatory response. Data on the potential role of soluble Tim-3 (sTim-3) in acute pancreatitis (AP) are scarce. We conduc…
OBJECTIVE: Protease-activated receptor 2 plays an important role in the pathogenesis of endometriosis. We studied the effect of ENMD-1068, a protease-activated receptor 2 antagonist, on the development of endometriosis in a noninvasive fluo…
PROBLEM: Little is known about the roles of TF and PAR-2 in endometriosis. This article investigated the expression of TF and PAR-2 in ectopic and eutopic endometrium with endometriosis and their relationship with the menstrual cycle. METH…
