BACKGROUND: Numerous studies have explored the histological overlap between endometrial carcinoma and adenomyosis, yet the clinical implications of their co-occurrence remain ambiguous. This study aims to evaluate the impact of adenomyosis …
OBJECTIVES: To explore the clinical relevant factors of patients with recurrent and non-recurrent abdominal wall endometriosis after surgical treatment, to further study the relevant risk factors of abdominal wall endometriosis recurrence, …
BACKGROUND: Uterine fibroids present significant obstetric challenges, particularly in late pregnancy. This study compared the outcomes of cesarean section combined with myomectomy (CS+M) versus cesarean section followed by elective myomect…
Oocyte aging is closely related to a decline in female fertility, accompanied by increased reactive oxygen species levels and changes in protein posttranslational modifications. However, the role of protein palmitoylation in oocyte aging ha…
OBJECTIVES: To evaluate pregnancy outcomes and influencing factors in adenomyosis patients undergoing high-intensity focused ultrasound (HIFU) treatment with fertility requirements. MATERIALS AND METHODS: From April 2012 to December 2022, …
BACKGROUND: The chronic inflammatory immune response is a significant factor in the pathogenesis of benign gynecological diseases. The systemic immunoinflammatory index (SII) and the platelet-to-lymphocyte ratio (PLR) are commonly available…
OBJECTIVE: The aim of this retrospective study was to investigate the short-term and long-term efficacy of high-intensity focused ultrasound (HIFU) therapy for abdominal wall endometriosis (AWE) and explore its potential influencing factors…
BACKGROUND: Epithelial ovarian cancer (EOC) remains an unmet medical challenge due to its insidious onset, atypical symptoms, and increasing resistance to conventional chemotherapeutic agents. It is imperative to explore novel biomarkers an…
PurposeThis study aims to share the experience of minimally invasive ultrasound-guided methotrexate intervention in the treatment of heterotopic interstitial pregnancy (HIP) with good pregnancy outcomes, and to review the treatment, pregnan…
EP2 is a G protein-coupled receptor for prostaglandin E2 (PGE2) derived from cell membrane-released arachidonic acid upon various harmful and injurious stimuli. It is commomly upregulated in tumors and injured brain tissues, as its activati…
OBJECTIVE: Adenomyosis is characterized by the presence of endometrium or endometrium-like glands and stroma within the myometrium. In this study, we aimed to investigate whether the cGAS-STING pathway was activated and correlated with clin…
OBJECTIVE: To investigate the long-term clinical outcomes of patients with adenomyosis treated by high-intensity focused ultrasound (HIFU). MATERIALS AND METHODS: From June 2012 to January 2020, 2311 patients with adenomyosis were treated …
Objective: The aim of this study was to compare the treatment effects of high-intensity focused ultrasound (HIFU) and laparoscopic excision (LE) in patients with adenomyosis and infertility.Materials and methods: A total of 93 patients with…
BackgroundManagement of intrauterine adhesions (IUAs) is challenging, mainly because there is no ideal method to prevent its recurrence. Recurrence of moderate to severe IUAs after conventional treatments entails a poorer prognosis in these…
BACKGROUND: Alpha protein kinase 2 (ALPK2) was known to play a vital role in cancer by regulating cell cycle and DNA repair. Ovarian cancer (OC) is one of the most lethal malignancies in the female reproductive system. The emphasis of this …
Medicinal plants are a vital source of natural products (NPs) that can cure cancer through modulation of different pathways, including oxidative stress, extrinsic and intrinsic apoptosis, cell cycle, inflammation, NF-kB, PI3K/AKT/mTOR, AMPK…
BACKGROUND: This study aimed to investigate potential factors, especially early-life exposures, associated with endometrioma (OMA) and/or deep infiltrating endometriosis (DIE) in Chinese women. METHODS: This is a subgroup analyses of the F…
During a minimally invasive tumor resection procedure, it is still a challenge to rapidly and accurately trace tiny malignant tumors in real time. Fluorescent molecular imaging is considered an efficient method of localizing tumors during s…
This study aimed to compare the levels of interleukin (IL)-1β, IL-6, IL-10, and IL-37 in the serum and peritoneal fluid of women with and without endometriosis. In addition, it aimed to determine the diagnostic values of the cytokines with …
BACKGROUND: To compare potential factors associated with deep infiltrating endometriosis (DIE) versus ovarian endometrioma (OMA) among endometriosis patients in China. METHODS: A subgroup analysis of factors associated with DIE versus OMA …
Endometriosis (EMs) is a chronic inflammatory condition. Interleukin (IL)-37 is a member of the IL-1 family and an anti-inflammatory cytokine. This study aimed to evaluate the possible role of IL-37 in the EMs pathogenesis. We investigated …
OBJECTIVE: The aim of this study was to compare the therapeutic outcomes of high-intensity focused ultrasound (HIFU) and surgical treatment for abdominal wall endometriosis. DESIGN: A retrospective study. SETTING: Gynaecological departmen…
Previous studies have shown that alterations of cytokines might play a role in the pathogenesis of adenomyosis. This study aims to investigate the expression of interleukin-37 (IL-37), an anti-inflammatory cytokine, in the eutopic and ectop…
