The genetic basis of endometriosis and comorbidity with other pain and inflammatory conditions
Nature genetics ·doi:10.1038/s41588-023-01323-z

Endometriosis is a common condition associated with debilitating pelvic pain and infertility. A genome-wide association study meta-analysis, including 60,674 cases and 701,926 controls of European and East Asian descent, identified 42 genom…

Genetic overlap analysis of endometriosis and asthma identifies shared loci implicating sex hormones and thyroid signalling pathways
Human Reproduction ·doi:10.1093/humrep/deab254

STUDY QUESTION: Is there a shared genetic or causal association of endometriosis with asthma or what biological mechanisms may underlie their potential relationships? SUMMARY ANSWER: Our results confirm a significant but non-causal associat…

Genome-wide association and epidemiological analyses reveal common genetic origins between uterine leiomyomata and endometriosis
Nature communications ·doi:10.1038/s41467-019-12536-4

Abstract Uterine leiomyomata (UL) are the most common neoplasms of the female reproductive tract and primary cause for hysterectomy, leading to considerable morbidity and high economic burden. Here we conduct a GWAS meta-analysis in 35,474 …

preprint 2018
Genome-wide association studies on endometriosis and endometriosis-related infertility
·doi:10.1101/401448

Abstract Endometriosis affects ∼10% of women of reproductive age. It is characterized by the growth of endometrial-like tissue outside the uterus and is frequently associated with severe pain and infertility. We performed the largest endome…
