Mother-to-child disease transmission begins in utero, with the placenta playing a critical role in pregnancy and offspring health. Uterine leiomyomata (fibroids, UFs) and endometriosis (ENDO) are common gynecologic diseases that …
The present study aimed to investigate the association between two MutL homolog 1 (MLH1) single-nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs), rs63749795 and rs63749820, and the risk of endometriosis.
Previous studies suggested that irregular sleep-wake rhythms increased the risk of endometriosis. Mechanistically, sleep pattern dysregulation may promote the pathogenesis of endometriosis via neuroendocrine disturbances. However, the causal relationship between …
To explore the genetic associations between 91 types of blood cells (BCs) and endometriosis (EMs), providing references for the treatment of EMs. Forward Mendelian randomization (MR) analysis was conducted with …
To explore the clinicopathological features and origin of mesonephric-like adenocarcinomas (MLAs), 83 cases diagnosed or suspected to be MLAs were collected from various institutions in Japan. We clearly classified 78 …
This study evaluated the feasibility of single-nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) genotyping using dried blood spot (DBS) samples stored under various conditions, based on the genotyping success rate and concordance with whole …
Endometriosis is a complex and heterogeneous condition affecting 10% of reproductive-age women, and yet, it often goes undiagnosed for several years. Limited observed heritability (7%) of large genetic association studies …
