Female reproductive disorders present significant challenges worldwide. Transfer RNA-derived small RNAs (tsRNAs), a structurally diverse class of non-coding RNAs mainly comprising tRNA halves (tiRNAs) and tRNA-derived fragments (tRFs), have…
Emerging but inconsistent evidence suggests that glyphosate (GLY)-based herbicides (GBHs) are more toxic than the active ingredient, GLY alone. Polyoxyethylene tallow amines (POEAs) are surfactants most widely used in GBH formulations, maki…
PURPOSES: The mediating effect of social support on the relationship between intimacy and perceived partner responsiveness (PPR) was examined among the endometriosis women of childbearing age. METHOD: 201 endometriosis (EM) women of childb…
BACKGROUND: Intrauterine adhesions (IUAs) are a common illness of the uterine cavity. Endometrial fibrosis is the main pathological feature. In addition to a high recurrence rate, patients with severe IUAs have a low pregnancy rate. However…
BACKGROUND: This study aimed to identify the diagnostic value of models constructed using computed tomography-based radiomics features for discrimination of benign and early stage malignant ovarian tumors. METHODS: The imaging and clinicop…
Effective health interventions are a priority for future infertility research, and effective interventions in patient-centered care are still needed. A multi-center prospective study was conducted in order to investigate the effects of a ph…
BACKGROUND: Unsubstantiated concerns have been raised on the potential correlation between severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) vaccination and infertility, leading to vaccine hesitancy in reproductive-aged populatio…
Ruxolitinib is a safe and effective therapy of myeloproliferative neoplasm-associated (MPN) myelofibrosis. However, often there are dose reductions and/or therapy interruptions because of therapy-related adverse events (AEs), especially ane…
Polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) affects 8-13% of reproductive-age females worldwide and mutations or aberrant expression of androgen receptor (AR) may cause the onset of this disease. In the present study, 258 samples from Han Chinese pati…
The placenta plays a central role in the epigenetic programming of neurodevelopment by prenatal stress (PS), but this pathway is not fully understood. It difficult to study in humans because the conditions for intense, traumatic PS are almo…
Purpose: Breast cancer is among the leading causes of cancer-related death; discovery of novel prognostic markers is needed to improve outcomes. Combining systems biology and epidemiology, we investigated miRNA-associated genes and breast c…
Protein phosphatase 2, regulatory subunit A, α (PPP2R1A) and β (PPP2R1B) are paralogous subunits of the heterotrimeric protein phosphatase 2 (PP2A) holoenzyme that catalyzes the dephosphorylation of target substrate proteins. Subtype‑specif…
Objective: To evaluate the effect of IL-8 gene polymorphisms in the pathogenesis of endometriosis.Methods: The distribution of IL-8 gene-251A/T polymorphisms in 152 specimens of endometriosis and 134 specimens of normal endometrium was dete…
