Different metabolic and hormonal disorders like type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM), obesity, and polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) have tangible socio-economic impact. Prevalence of these metabolic and hormonal disorders is steadily increasing among women. There are clinical evidences that these physiological conditions are related to the manifestation of different gynecological cancers and their poor prognosis. The relationship between metabolic and hormonal disorders with gynecological cancers is quite complex. The need for gene level association study is extremely important to find markers and predicting risk factors. In the current work, we have selected metabolic disorders like T2DM and obesity, hormonal disorder PCOS, and 4 different gynecological cancers like endometrial, uterine, cervical, and triple negative breast cancer (TNBC). The gene list was downloaded from DisGeNET database (v 6.0). The protein interaction network was constructed using HIPPIE (v 2.2) and shared proteins were identified. Molecular comorbidity index and Jaccard coefficient (degree of similarity) between the diseases were determined. Pathway enrichment analysis was done using ReactomePA and significant modules (clusters in a network) of the constructed network was analyzed by MCODE plugin of Cytoscape. The comorbid conditions like PCOS-obesity found to increase the risk factor of ovarian and triple negative breast cancers whereas PCOS alone has highest contribution to the endometrial cancer. Different gynecological cancers were found to be differentially related to the metabolic/hormonal disorders and comorbid condition.

Background: Randomized clinical trials (RCTs) are fundamental to evidence-based medicine, but their real-world impact on clinical practice often remains unmonitored. Leveraging large-scale real-world data can enable systematic monitoring of RCT effects. We aimed to develop a reproducible framework using real-world data to assess how major RCTs influence medical practice, using two pivotal surgical RCTs in gynaecologic oncology as an example-the LACC (Laparoscopic Approach to Cervical Cancer) and LION (Lymphadenectomy in Ovarian Neoplasms) trials.

Ovarian cancer (OC) remains one of the most lethal gynecological malignancies, largely due to its late-stage diagnosis and high recurrence rates. Chronic inflammation is a critical driver of OC progression, contributing to immune evasion, tumor growth, and metastasis. Inflammatory cytokines, including IL-6, TNF-α, and IL-8, as well as key signaling pathways such as nuclear factor kappa B (NF-kB) and signal transducer and activator of transcription 3 (STAT3), are upregulated in OC, promoting a tumor-promoting environment.

Background: Soluble N-ethylmaleimide-sensitive factor attachment protein receptor (SNARE)-mediated membrane fusion is crucial for autophagy, making YKT6, a key modulator of cell membrane fusion, a potential target for cancer therapy. However, its oncogenic role across different cancers remains unclear. This study was to investigate the prognostic value and potential immunological functions of YKT6, including cervical squamous cell carcinoma and endocervical adenocarcinoma (CESC).

Objective: To investigate the correlation between endometriosis (EMs) severity and placenta accreta spectrum (PAS) risk in the subsequent pregnancy.
Method: Clinical records of 2,142 patients who underwent laparoscopic surgery for EMs at Fujian Provincial Maternal and Child Health Hospital from January 2014 to January 2018, who had achieved pregnancy and were delivered, were analyzed. Baseline data, EMs stage, The Revised American Fertility Society (R-AFS) score, levels of serum indexes, and pregnancy and neonatal outcomes were recorded.
