PTEN as a predictive marker of response to conservative treatment in endometrial hyperplasia and early endometrial cancer. A systematic review and meta-analysis [PDF]
OBJECTIVE: Several markers have been studied to predict the responsiveness of endometrial hyperplasia (EH) and early endometrial cancer (EEC) to progestin therapy. PTEN has played a major role in this field, although its predictive significance is still

Abstract Objective To analyze independent risk factors for endometrial cancer (EC), a common female cancer globally, and construct individualized prediction models for EC recurrence. Methods The EC patients from the medical record system were divided into low‐grade (n = 392) and high‐grade (n = 183) groups.

Oral contraceptive progestins and angiotensin-dependent control of the renal circulation in humans [PDF]
Oral contraceptive (OC) use is associated with increased intra-renal renin-angiotensin-aldosterone system (RAA System) activity and risk of nephropathy, though the contribution of progestins contained in the OC in the regulation of angiotensin-dependent ...
