Genetic Abnormalities and Clinical Management of Fetal Genitourinary System Anomalies in Eastern China

open access: yesAmerican Journal of Medical Genetics Part A, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT To investigate the correlation between genetic abnormalities and fetal genitourinary (GU) anomalies in Eastern China and to provide assistance for the clinical management of fetuses with different types of GU anomalies. Five hundred forty‐five fetuses with GU anomalies were enrolled, undergoing karyotyping, copy number variation sequencing ...

Quality of life and marital sexual satisfaction in women with polycystic ovary syndrome.

open access: yesFolia Histochemica et Cytobiologica, 2008
Polycystic ovary syndrome affects 5-10% of women in the developed world, making it the most common endocrine disorder among women of reproductive age. The symptoms typically associated with polycystic ovary syndrome: amenorrhea, oligomenorrhea, hirsutism,

Optimization and verification of high‐fat diet formulation for establishing a rat model of obesity‐related precocious puberty

open access: yesAnimal Models and Experimental Medicine, EarlyView.
We identified 45% HFD as the optimal formulation to establish a juvenile rat model of obesity‐related precocious puberty. It elicits robust phenotypic (early vaginal opening, obesity), histological (advanced ovarian development), and endocrine (elevated HPG axis hormones) alterations, with leptin‐mediated GnRH secretion as a core mechanistic driver ...

Metformin enhances external urethral sphincter integrity and restores continence via AMPK activation in a rat model of stress urinary incontinence

open access: yesAnimal Models and Experimental Medicine, EarlyView.
The pathogenesis of stress urinary incontinence (SUI) is intimately associated with injury to the external urethral sphincter (EUS). In this study, we established an SUI model induced by double vaginal distension and demonstrated that metformin treatment activated the AMPK signaling in the EUS tissue.

Association between circulating adiponectin levels and polycystic ovarian syndrome [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
Background: Low adiponectin levels in polycystic ovarian syndrome (PCOS) have been largely attributed to obesity which is common among these patients. In addition, evidence also suggests that low adiponectin in PCOS may be related to insulin resistance (

Exposure‐adjusted safety and efficacy of GLP‐I and GLP‐1/GIP receptor agonists compared with non‐GLP‐I for weight management and type 2 diabetes: Based on FDA medical and statistical reports of 34 280 safety and 36 312 efficacy subjects

open access: yesBritish Journal of Clinical Pharmacology, EarlyView.
Aims This work aimed to contextualize glucagon‐like peptide‐1 receptor agonists (GLP‐1 RAs) and glucose‐dependent insulinotropic polypeptide (GIP) receptor agonists safety and efficacy regarding weight management (WM); we analysed Food and Drug Administration (FDA) Medical Reviews to analyse 14 medications using patient‐exposure year normalization and ...

Is polycystic ovary syndrome a sexual conflict? A review [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
Several studies have attempted to explain the high overall prevalence of polycystic ovary syndrome among women worldwide (about 4-10%) despite its link to subfertile phenotypes. For this reason, it is considered an evolutionary paradox.
