Effect of baseline prolactin levels on the pregnancy outcomes after fresh embryo transfer.

Background And Aims: There is clinical disagreement on whether to treat hyperprolactinemia with medication before embryo transfer. The aim of this study is to identify the impact of basal prolactin (PRL) levels on pregnancy outcomes in fresh embryo transfer cycles.

Methods: This retrospective study involved 2,648 women who underwent basal PRL level testing and fresh embryo transfer between January 2015 and December 2020 at our Hospital's Department of Assisted Reproduction.

Integrated Analysis of a Competing Endogenous RNA Network Revealing a Prognostic Signature for Cervical Cancer.

Given the high morbidity and the trend of younger individuals being affected observed in cervical cancer, it is important to identify sensitive and effective biomarkers for predicting the survival outcome of patients. Based on data from 307 cervical cancer cases acquired from The Cancer Genome Atlas portal, 1920 differentially expressed mRNAs, 70 microRNAs(miRNAs), and 493 long non-coding(lncRNAs) were screened by comparing cervical cancer tissues with paracancerous tissues. A competing endogenous (ceRNA) network containing 50 lncRNAs, 16 miRNAs, and 81 mRNAs was constructed.

functions as a key candidate gene in cervical cancer as determined by integrated bioinformatic analysis.

Background: Cervical cancer, one of the leading causes of female deaths, remains a top cause of mortality in gynecologic oncology and tends to affect younger individuals. However, the pathogenesis of cervical cancer is still far from clear. Given the high incidence and mortality of cervical cancer, uncovering the causes and pathogenesis as well as identifying novel biomarkers are of great significance and are desperately needed.

Oxidative Stress in the Rostral Ventrolateral Medulla Contributes To Cardiovascular Regulation in Preeclampsia.

It has been demonstrated that preeclampsia, a pregnancy-specific hypertension disorder, is characterized by high blood pressure (BP) and sympathetic overactivity. Increased reactive oxygen species (ROS) in the rostral ventrolateral medulla (RVLM), a key region for controlling sympathetic tone, has been reported to contribute to high level of BP and sympathetic outflow. The aim of the present study was to determine the role of the RVLM ROS in mediating the preeclampsia-associated cardiovascular dysfunction.

Cuprous oxide nanoparticles inhibit the growth of cervical carcinoma by inducing autophagy.

Cervical carcinoma is one of the main causes of women's cancer, and substantial side effects from standard treatment including platinum-based chemotherapy limit the options for escalation. In this paper, using cervical cancer cell lines and tumor-bearing mice as models, we report that CONPs could inhibit the proliferation of cancer cells and . Especially CONPs could inhibit tumor growth as cisplatin without weight loss.
