meta-analysis 2025
Genome-wide analyses identify 25 infertility loci and relationships with reproductive traits across the allele frequency spectrum
Nature genetics ·doi:10.1038/s41588-025-02156-8

Genome-wide association studies (GWASs) may help inform the etiology of infertility. Here, we perform GWAS meta-analyses across seven cohorts in up to 42,629 cases and 740,619 controls and identify 25 genetic risk loci for male and female i…

Genome-wide analyses identify 21 infertility loci and over 400 reproductive hormone loci across the allele frequency spectrum
medRxiv : the preprint server for health sciences ·doi:10.1101/2024.03.19.24304530

Genome-wide association studies (GWASs) may help inform treatments for infertility, whose causes remain unknown in many cases. Here we present GWAS meta-analyses across six cohorts for male and female infertility in up to 41,200 cases and 6…

Obesity and risk of female reproductive conditions: A Mendelian randomisation study
PLoS medicine ·doi:10.1371/journal.pmed.1003679

BACKGROUND: Obesity is observationally associated with altered risk of many female reproductive conditions. These include polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS), abnormal uterine bleeding, endometriosis, infertility, and pregnancy-related disorde…

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 analysis identifies 27 novel loci associated with uterine leiomyomata revealing common genetic origins with endometriosis
·doi:10.1101/324905

Uterine leiomyomata (UL), also known as uterine fibroids, are the most common neoplasms of the reproductive tract and the primary cause for hysterectomy, leading to considerable impact on women’s lives as well as high economic burden 1,2 . …

article 2017
Large-Scale Integrated Genome-Wide RNA Sequencing, miRNA Array, and Genomic Analyses to Unravel the Functionality of Genome-Wide Association Results in Endometriosis.

Around 50% of endometriosis risk is due to genetic factors. Ten genome-wide significant loci have been associated with endometriosis, but most are located in intergenic regions of the genome. To understand how transcriptomic profiles are pe…
