Endometrial function in women with polycystic ovary syndrome: a comprehensive review
AbstractBACKGROUNDPolycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) is the most common cause of anovulatory infertility. An endometrial component has been suggested to contribute to subfertility and poor reproductive outcomes in affected women.OBJECTIVE AND RATIONALEThe aim of this review was to determine whether there is sufficient evidence to support that endometrial function is altered in women with PCOS, whether clinical features of PCOS affect the endometrium, and whether there are evidence-based interventions to improve endometrial dysfunction in PCOS women.SEARCH METHODSAn extensive literature search was performed from 1970 up to Ju...

Using Age-Related Gene Expression Changes to Search for Drugs to Slow Aging
In this study, using gene expression data for human brain ageing, we aimed to discover not only new pro-longevity drugs but also those that can improve health during ageing. The biological processes showing a change in expression include pathways related to synaptic and cognitive functions as well as proteostasis, suggesting gene expression changes in the ageing brain could be used as a surrogate to find drugs to target detrimental effects. Using multiple gene expression datasets from brain tissue, taken from patients of different ages, we first identified the expression changes that characterise ageing. Then, we c...

A Systematic Review of Cost-Effectiveness of Sodium-Glucose Cotransporter Inhibitors for Type 2 Diabetes
The objective of this review was to evaluate the most updated evidence that examined the cost-effectiveness of SGLT2i for T2DM.Recent FindingsWe systematically searched Medline (PubMed), EMBASE, and Web of Science for eligible articles from January 1, 2011, to October 31, 2019, using combinations of search words. A supplementary search using reference lists of eligible articles and other review articles was also performed. A multistage screening process was carried out with duplicates removal, abstract screening, and full-text reading to confirm eligibility. Two reviewers independently screened the eligible articles and as...

Impact of Chinese Herbal Medicine on Glucolipid Metabolic Outcomes in Women with Polycystic Ovary Syndrome: A Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis
CONCLUSION: Compared with the placebo group, Chinese herbal medicine had positive effects on glucolipid metabolism in women with PCOS. Chinese herbal medicine had a positive effect on lipid metabolism when the control group was metformin, but no effect on glucose metabolism. These findings need to be verified in high-quality, large-sample, randomized controlled trials in the future.PMID:36212945 | PMC:PMC9546672 | DOI:10.1155/2022/3245663

Metformin is a Novel Suppressor for Vimentin in Human Gastric Cancer Cell Line
In this study, AGS gastric cancer cells were treated with metformin and vimentin-specific siRNA (vim-siRNA) for 48 h. The impact of metformin and vim-siRNA on vimentin downregulation in AGS cells were analyzed by quantitative PCR and Western blot. Following treatment with metformin and vim-siRNA, cell motility, migration and invasion abilities of AGS cells were also analyzed. The results showed that inhibition of vimentin due to metformin was comparable with the vim-siRNA. Furthermore, wound-healing and invasion assays showed a significant decrease in migration and invasion of AGS cells following metformin and vim-siRNA tr...
