BACKGROUND: Ovarian cancer remains the most lethal gynecological cancer, with fewer than 50% of patients surviving more than 5 years after diagnosis. This study aimed to analyze the global epidemiological trends of ovarian cancer from 1990 …

BACKGROUND: Endometriosis is benign, but it is associated with an increased risk of clear-cell and endometrioid ovarian carcinoma. Several multivariable prediction models have been developed to identify malignant transformation or different…

To explore the material basis and network mechanism of the Guizhi Fuling pills in the treatment of endometriosis and endometrial polyps based on network pharmacology and machine learning. The effective constituents and targets of the Guizhi…

Severe acute pancreatitis (SAP), a life-threatening inflammatory disease of the pancreas, has a high mortality rate (∼40 %). Current therapeutic approaches, including antibiotics, trypsin inhibitors, fasting, rehydration, and even continuou…

OBJECTIVES: The aim of this study was to cross-culturally translate a questionnaire about gynecological and pelvic pain symptoms (ENDOPAIN-4D) patient-reported outcome measurement (PROM) into Chinese and evaluate its reliability and validit…

OBJECTIVE: To compare surgical outcomes of laparoendoscopic single-site myomectomy (LESS-M) for uterine myomas using barbed suture versus conventional suture. METHODS: Data were collected from all women with uterine myomas who underwent LE…

In clinical drug development, two fundamental questions must be addressed: what is the success rate of drugs in clinical trial; how does such rate change over time. Here, a dynamic strategy for calculating clinical trial success rate (ClinS…

Epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT) is known to play a crucial role in the development of endometriosis (EMs). However, the exact mechanisms involved in EMT regulation in EMs are not well understood. In this study, we performed comprehe…

PURPOSE: To develop a deep learning (DL) model for differentiating between benign and malignant ovarian tumors of Ovarian-Adnexal Reporting and Data System Ultrasound (O-RADS US) Category 4 lesions, and validate its diagnostic performance. …

BACKGROUND: Telocytes (TCs), a novel interstitial cell type in the reproductive tract, participating in pathophysiology of intrauterine adhesions (IUA). This study further investigates the hypothesis that TCs, a source of Wnt, promote the r…

AIM: To explore whether sequential embryo transfer benefits patients with repeated implantation failure (RIF) undergoing frozen-thawed embryo transfer (FET) cycles. METHODS: We included 311 patients with a history of RIF in this retrospect…

BACKGROUND: Balloon dilation is a commonly used minimally invasive endourological treatment of ureteral stricture, but the postoperative recurrence rate is relatively high. And factors contributing to recurrence after treatment are poorly u…

Ovarian cancer (OC) is one of the most common malignant tumors in women. OC is associated with the activation of oncogenes, the inactivation of tumor suppressor genes, and the activation of abnormal cell signaling pathways. Moreover, epigen…

BACKGROUND: Pain sensitization processing in the central nervous system may be related to endometriosis-associated pain in patients. The purpose of this study was to understand the alterations in the abnormal pain response in central brain …

Zheng P, Jia S, Guo D, et al. J Pain Res. 2020;13:95–107.During the final editing stages of manuscript preparation, the authors mistakenly repeated the Pain Cg1 and Tha images used in Figure 6 on page 103. The correct Figure 6 is shown belo…

BackgroundPatients with severe acute pancreatitis (SAP), which is characterized by high morbidity and mortality, account for an increasing medical burden worldwide. We previously found that mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) could attenuate SAP …

Biotransformation is important in the metabolism of endobiotics and xenobiotics. This process comprises the activity of phase I and phase II enzymes. Estrogen sulfotransferase (SULT1E1 or EST) is a phase II conjugating enzyme that belongs t…

BACKGROUND: Non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) are frequently prescribed drugs and can cause drug-induced liver injury. Although patients with drug-induced liver injury from NSAIDs often recover spontaneously, 3% of them require…

PURPOSE: To assess the clinical outcomes and fertility of young women with stage I low-grade endometrial stromal sarcoma (ESS) treated with fertility-sparing surgery. RESULTS: Seventeen patients with stage I low-grade ESS (stage IA, n = 6;…

BACKGROUND: Fertility-sparing surgery is indicated for patients with stage I epithelial ovarian cancers. We sought to evaluate the clinical outcomes and oncofertility in a cohort of patients of reproductive age with stage I epithelial ovari…

PURPOSE: Primary endometrioid stromal sarcomas (ESS) of the ovary are rare mesenchymal tumors with scarce data on their behavior and optimal treatment. We aimed to describe the clinicopathologic features and outcome among patients with prim…

Endometriosis is an estrogen-dependent disease that involves the adhesion, invasion, and angiogenesis of endometrial tissues outside of the uterine cavity. We hypothesized that a link exists between estrogen and beta-catenin (β-catenin) sig…

BACKGROUND: Endometriosis is a common cause of pain including radicular pain. Ectopic endometrial tissue may directly affect peripheral nerves including the sciatic, which has not been modelled in animals. METHODS: We developed a rat model…
