BackgroundThe aim of this study was to develop a new model constructed by logistic regression for the early prediction of the severity of acute pancreatitis (AP) using magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) and the Acute Physiology and Chronic He…
Objective: To investigate the relationship between embryo implantation site and adenomyotic lesions in pregnant patients with adenomyosis and its effects on pregnancy outcomes. Methods: Between January 2018 and December 2020, the clinical d…
Objective: To further understand the current status of diagnosis and treatment of endometriosis in China, the implementation of guideline in different levels of hospitals, and the need for continuing education in endometriosis among primary…
BACKGROUND: A cystic lesion arising from the myometrium of the uterus, termed as cystic adenomyosis, has chocolate-like, thick viscous contents and contains various amounts of endometrial stroma below the glandular epithelium. It is an extr…

Objective: To determine the levels of coagulation and inflammatory factors in women with moderate and severe ovarian endometriosis so as to investigate the possible role of coagulation and inflammatory factors in the pathogenesis, diagnosis…
Endometriosis is an estrogen-dependent disease. Previous research has shown that abnormal enzymes associated with estrogen (E2) metabolism and an increased number of mast cells (MCs) in endometriomas are implicated in the pathogenesis of en…
Acute pancreatitis (AP) is a complex disease that results in significant morbidity and mortality. For many decades, it has compelled researchers to explore the exact pathogenesis and the understanding of the pathogenesis of AP has progresse…
Endometriosis, a pathological condition in which the endometrium grows outside the uterus, is one of the most common causes of female infertility; it is diagnosed in 25-40% of infertile women. The mechanism by which endometriosis affects th…
OBJECTIVE: To investigate the role of mast cells in the pathogenesis of estrogen-mediated experimental endometriosis in rats. METHODS: Endometriosis model was established by transplanting autologous fragments of uterus to the inner surface…
OBJECTIVE: To investigate the effect of sodium cromoglycate on experimental endometriosis in rats. METHODS: Endometriosis model was established in 36 unpregnant female SD rats by transplanting autologous fragments of endometrium to the inn…
To reduce the side effects and improve the lack of clinical treatment countermeasures in endometriosis chemotherapy, a polymeric micelle gene delivery system composed of lipid grafted chitosan micelles (CSO-SA) and the pigment epithelium de…
OBJECTIVE: To evaluate the quality of literatures and the accuracy of ultrasonography in diagnosis of deeply infiltrating endometriosis (DIE). METHODS: The database of Medline (1966 to 2009), the excerpta medica database (EMBASE, 1980 to 2…
OBJECTIVE: To investigate the expression of phosphatase of regenerating liver-3 (PRL-3) in ectopic, eutopic, and normal endometria and explore its relationship with endometriosis. DESIGN: A clinical retrospective and molecular study. SETT…
OBJECTIVE: To investigate the association between distribution of protein gene product (PGP) 9.5-immunoactive nerve fibers in peritoneal endometriotic lesions and disease-associated pain symptoms. METHODS: Thirty two peritoneal endometriot…
The phenomenon of accessory ovary, initially described in 1864, is extremely rare. We report a case of an accessory ovary in a round ligament with endometriosis. At the time of laparoscopy a firm 2- to 3-cm mass was noted within the round l…
OBJECTIVE: To investigate nerve fibers distribution in endometrium of adenomyosis and their relationship with dysmenorrhea. METHODS: Endometrial tissue was sampled from 74 hysterectomy specimens including 32 cases with adenomyosis and 42 c…
The purpose of this study was to investigate the relationship between IL-10 promoter gene polymorphism and the susceptibility to endometriosis (EMs) in Chinese population. Amplification refractory mutation system polymerase chain reactions …
OBJECTIVE: To investigate the metabolism of lipid, calcium and phosphorus in women with endometriosis. METHODS: Clinical data of 223 patients with endometriosis and 200 patients without endometriosis were retrospectively analyzed. Electroc…
OBJECTIVE: To investigate whether interleukin-1 beta (IL-1beta ) and interleukin-1 receptor antagonist (IL-1RA) gene polymorphisms are associated with endometriosis (EMs) in Chinese women. METHODS: One hundred and thirty-eight patients wit…
OBJECTIVE: To investigate the role of interleukin-17 (IL-17) in the pathogenesis of endometriosis. METHODS: Enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) was used to detect the concentrations of IL-17 in peritoneal fluid of 36 patients with di…
OBJECTIVE: To investigate the role of interleukine-16 (IL-16) in the pathogenesis of endometriosis. METHODS: Enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) was used to determine the levels of IL-16 in peritoneal fluid and serum specimens of 22 …
