The authors present a specific aspect of the modifications of the endometrium in dysfunctional uterine hemorrhages that is the behavior of the endometrial glands. These glands are studied from a immunohistochemical point of view, regarding both the normal endometrium (inclusively at the age of two years) and the endometrium in dysfunctional uterine hemorrhages. The antigens used were VGEF and P...

OBJECTIVE To screen, identify, and compare the serum biomarkers between anovulatory dysfunctional uterine bleeding (ADUB) and ovulatory dysfunctional uterine bleeding (ODUB) in Lizu females. METHODS The subjects included 128 ADUB patients, 63 ODUB patients, and 93 controls. The serum and supernate of the subjects' mense were collected and stored at -80 °C until use.
