High-grade serous ovarian cancer (HGSOC) is the most common type of epithelial ovarian cancer with insidious onset, rapid growth, and invasive spread. Here, we reported the diagnosis and treatment of a 53-year-old patient with a history of …
AIM: To share our experiences of resuming the treatments for gynecologic patients after lifting the lockdown in a hotspot area for the Coronavirus Disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic. METHODS: The triage process used to resume medical activit…
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…
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 …
Chronic inflammation is a well-known epidemiologic factor of ovarian clear cell carcinomas (OCCC), but has an uncertain role in prognosis. We developed a systemic inflammation score (SIS) based on preoperative serum albumin and neutrophil-t…
OBJECTIVES: Angiopoietins have been found to play essential roles in tumor angiogenesis. The present study was aimed at investigating the diagnostic and prognostic values of serum angiopoietin 1 and 2 (sAng-1 and sAng-2) in cervical cancer.…
BACKGROUND: Despite enormous efforts to dissect the role of endometriosis in ovarian cancer development, the difference in prognosis between ovarian cancer patients with or without endometriosis remains elusive. The purpose of this study is…
OBJECTIVE: To investigate soluble neuropilin-1 (sNRP-1) in circulating and NRP-1 protein in cervical tissues from patients with cervical cancer or cervical intraepithelial neoplasia (CIN). METHODS: sNRP-1 was measured in 64 preoperative pa…
Quantitative real-time PCR (qPCR) is a powerful and reproducible method of gene expression analysis in which expression levels are quantified by normalization against reference genes. Therefore, to investigate the potential biomarkers and t…
Omentum metastasis is a common occurrence in epithelial ovarian cancer (EOC), which is often accompanied by ascites that facilitates the spread of EOC cells. A subpopulation of fibroblasts-the cancer-associated fibroblasts (CAFs) are import…
OBJECTIVE: To construct a latent human soluble tumor necrosis factor receptor I (hsTNFRI) using the latency associated protein (LAP) of transforming growth factor-beta1 (TGF-beta1) fused via a matrix metalloproteinase (MMP) cleavage site to…
Tumor-associated lymphatic endothelial cells (TLEC) could play a key role in the process of tumor metastasis. The aim of this study was to investigate the effect of TLECs that were isolated from human epithelial ovarian tumor (EOT) on ovari…
【Objective】To investigate the clinical value of ultrasonic scalpel in laparoscopic hysterectomy(LH). 【Methods】The records of 125 patients with myoma, adenomyosis or cervical intraepithelial neoplasia (CIN) III who underwent laparoscopic hys…
There has been emergence of evidence suggesting that specific variants of the vascular endothelia growth factor (VEGF) family, based on their ability to regulate angiogenesis, would be pivotal in the pathogenesis of endometriosis. This stud…
