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 …
