OBJECTIVE: Polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) is a leading cause of female infertility, and early pregnancy outcomes in affected women are affected by multiple interactive factors; however, no well-established predictive tools are available. …
Ovarian clear cell carcinoma (CCC) is an aggressive subtype of ovarian cancer that is resistant to conventional chemotherapy, resulting in poor prognosis. CCC develops from endometriosis, which exposes tumor cells to a hypoxic microenvironm…
Uterine adenomyosis is a widespread condition that impairs female fertility, with elevated serum levels of cancer antigen 125 (CA125) and prolactin (PRL) often observed in affected women. Mifepristone has been investigated as a potential th…
BACKGROUND: Ovarian endometriosis (OEMs) is a primary cause of female infertility and is driven primarily by fibrosis, which disrupts the ovarian follicular microenvironment. Pirfenidone (PFD), an FDA-approved antifibrotic drug, holds promi…
Angiogenesis plays a significant role in the occurrence and development of some difficult-to-treat diseases, including wound healing, cancer, and ischemic diseases. Ginsenosides, the primary active components of Panax ginseng Meyer, exhibit…
Immune escape is a phenomenon in which tumor cells or infections evade detection and clearance by the host immune system in various ways. During an antitumor immune response, cells increase the concentration of pentameric stalk, which enhan…
BACKGROUND: Limited clinical research has focused on women with chronic kidney disease (CKD) undergoing assisted reproductive technology (ART). We aim to investigate the kidney outcome and the adverse pregnancy-related outcomes of CKD women…
BACKGROUND: Elevated systemic oxidative stress contributes to endometrial damage. Individuals with obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) exhibit significantly elevated oxidative stress; however, the potential role of oxidative stress in OSA-induced…
INTRODUCTION: Weight loss is often recommended as the primary intervention for infertility in individuals with high body mass index. However, focusing on body mass index might overlook other important factors like cardiometabolic health. Th…
BackgroundRecent studies have suggested that cell death may be involved in bone loss or the resolution of inflammation in periodontitis. Immunogenic cell death (ICD), a recently identified cell death pathway, may be involved in the developm…
CONTEXT: Polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS), a common endocrine disorder in women of reproductive age, is closely associated with chronic low-grade inflammation and metabolic disturbances. In PCOS mice, dietary inulin has been demonstrated to…
BACKGROUND: Xanthogranulomatous cholecystitis (XGC) and gallbladder carcinoma (GBC) share similar imaging and serological profiles, posing significant challenges in accurate preoperative diagnosis. This study aimed to identify reliable indi…
IMPORTANCE: Chronic pelvic pain (CPP) is the main sequela of pelvic inflammatory disease (PID), with no established treatment. ZY5301 tablets, an effective part preparation extracted from Ajuga decumbens Thunb. (jingucao), are being tested …
OBJECTIVE: Ovarian cancer (OC) is usually called the "silent killer" due to its asymptomatic characteristics until advanced stages, thus being a significant threat to female health worldwide. In this work, we characterized an oncogenic DARS…
BACKGROUND: To explore the effects of microRNA (miR)-27b-3p-mediated homeobox A10 (HOXA10) on the proliferation, migration, and invasion of endometriosis cells (hEM15A). METHODS: First, quantitative polymerase chain reaction (qPCR) was per…
BACKGROUND: Cervical cancer is a frequent, common cancer in women, and causes high cancer-related deaths among women in our world. Accumulating studies provided an important evidence for long noncoding RNA (lncRNA) polymorphisms in the susc…
OBJECTIVE: Premature ovarian insufficiency (POI) is a refractory disease that seriously affects female fertility. Growing body of evidence has indicated mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) as promising resources in regenerative medicine. In this …
Neuroimaging technology is an important technology used to explore the neural mechanisms of acupuncture analgesia. In this study, we extracted original studies published in Chinese and English focusing on the use of neuroimaging technology …
In last few years, therapeutic peptides/proteins are rapidly growing in drug market considering their higher efficiency and lower toxicity than chemical drugs. However, the administration of therapeutic peptides/proteins is mainly limited i…
OBJECTIVES: To assess the efficacy and safety of focused ultrasound therapy (FU) and microwave therapy (MW) for cervical ectopy (CE). METHODS: We searched PubMed, EMbase, the Cochrane Library, Chinese Biomedical Literature Database (CBM), …
Advanced abdominal pregnancy is rare. The low incidence, high misdiagnosis rate, and lack of specific clinical signs and symptoms explain the fact that there are no standard diagnostic and treatment options available for advanced abdominal …
