Abstract Background: To share our experiences of resumption of the treatment for gynecologic patients after lifting lockdown in a hotspot area of the Corona Virus Disease 2019 (COVID-19)pandemic.Methods: The triage process used to resume t…
The use of Shi Xiao San (SXS), composed of Pollen Typhae Angustifoliae and Faeces Trogopterori, can be traced back to the Song dynasty. Traditionally, SXS has been used to treat irregular menstruation, pelvic pain, progressive dysmenorrhea,…
BACKGROUND: Nearly all uterine cervical cancer (UCC) cases result from human papillomavirus (HPV) infection. After high-risk HPV infection, most HPV infections are naturally cleared by humoral and cell-mediated immune responses. Thus, cervi…
Human urine is traditionally considered to be sterile, and whether the urine harbours distinct microbial communities has been a matter of debate. Potential links between female urine and reproductive tract microbial communities is currently…
Colorectal cancer (CRC) is one of the leading causes of cancer mortality. Angiogenesis is a rate-determining step in CRC development and metastasis. The balance of angiogenic and antiangiogenic factors is crucial in this process. Angiogenes…
AIM: To evaluate the diagnosis value of serum human epididymis protein 4 (HE4), cancer antigen 125 (CA125), the Risk of Ovarian Malignancy Algorithm (ROMA), and Copenhagen Index (CPH-I) at early stages for differentiating borderline ovarian…
AIM: Previous studies have revealed that loss of cell apical-basal polarity contributed to the early stages of tumorigenesis. Adenomyosis involves a down-growth and aberrant implantation of the endometrial basalis into the myometrium. This …
BACKGROUND: Recurrent implantation failure (RIF) remains a critical and challenging problem in assisted reproductive technology mainly due to impaired decidualization. The endocytic and transcytotic activity in the endometrium are crucial f…
Growing evidence indicates that the tumor biomarker cytokeratin 19 fragment (CYFRA21-1) is significant for a variety of cancers. However, its role in epithelial ovarian cancer (EOC) has rarely been reported. In this study, a receiver operat…
Endometriosis is a common chronic gynecologic disorder characterized by the presence and growth of endometrial-like tissue outside of the uterine cavity. Although the exact etiology remains unclear, epigenetic modifications, such as DNA met…
Uterine cervical cancer (UCC) causes more than one quarter of a million deaths per year in many developing countries. Nearly all cases of cervical cancer result from infection with the human papillomavirus. After high-risk HPV infection, mo…
Purpose: Long noncoding RNAs (lncRNAs) have recently received more attention for their roles in tumor progression. LINC00261 was studied in this research to identify how it affects the progression of non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). Meth…
Ovarian cancer is the most lethal gynecological malignancy worldwide. Most patients are diagnosed at late stages because of atypical symptoms and the lack of effective early diagnostic measures. The mechanisms underlying the oncogenesis and…
Impaired decidualization has been considered a major cause of infertility in adenomyosis. However, the mechanism remains poorly understood. Recent studies suggest that microRNAs (miRNA) play a crucial role in embryo implantation. The aim of…
CONTEXT: Despite extensive searches for novel noninvasive diagnostics, laparoscopy remains the reference test for endometriosis. Circulating miRNAs are purported endometriosis biomarkers; however, the miRNA species and their diagnostic accu…
OBJECTIVE: To establish a model for predicting revised American Society of Reproductive Medicine (rASRM) scores before endometrioma surgery based on serum anti-Müllerian hormone (AMH) level and to identify factors that might reliably predic…
Abstract Background: Serum levels of cancer antigen 125 (CA125) are reportedly closely associated with the extent of adenomyosis. However, the association between serum CA125 levels before hormone replacement therapy (HRT) and the clinical…
BACKGROUND: Chemokines are small chemotactic cytokines involved in inflammation, cell migration, and immune regulation in both physiological and pathological contexts. Here, we investigated the profile of chemokines during primary HIV infec…
Abstract Background This retrospective study aimed (1) to evaluate the value of enhanced T2 star-weighted angiography (ESWAN) in diagnosis Adenomyosis(AM). And (2) to estimate the differences of focal AM patients lesion and the peripheral t…
Recent research revealed that tissue spray mass spectrometry enables rapid molecular profiling of biological tissues, which is of great importance for the search of disease biomarkers as well as for online surgery control. However, the payb…
In recent years, the study of oxidative stress (OS) has become increasingly popular. In particular, the role of OS on female fertility is very important and has been focused on closely. The occurrence of OS is due to the excessive productio…
Endometrial cancer is the most commonly diagnosed cancer of the female reproductive tract in developed countries. Through genome-wide association studies (GWAS), we have previously identified eight risk loci for endometrial cancer. Here, we…
Recurrent implantation failure (RIF) caused by various etiological factors remains a challenge for fertility clinicians using assisted reproductive technology (ART) worldwide. Dysregulation of leukemia inhibitory factor (LIF) in the endomet…
Increasing evidence suggests that metformin use is associated with a decreased risk of cancer. The traditional therapies for gastric cancer (GC) are gastrectomy and chemoradiotherapy; however, these therapies may cause certain adverse effec…
PURPOSE: The purpose of this study was to determine the heterotopic pregnancy rate using fresh versus frozen-thawed embryo transfers and factors associated with heterotopic pregnancy (HP). Management and clinical outcomes after heterotopic …
