Pleural thickening can be the result of inflammation or infection but can also have a neoplastic origin. Depending on the clinical context, a pleural lesion or mass is often initially suspected of malignancy. Benign pleural tumors are rare,…
Genetic associations between variants on chromosome 5p13 and 8q24 and gastric cancer (GC) have been previously reported in the Asian population. We aimed to replicate these findings and to characterize the associations at the genome and tra…
A genome-wide association study and meta-analysis identified ISL1 as the first genome-wide significant susceptibility gene for classic bladder exstrophy (CBE). A short interspersed repetitive element (SINE), first detected in lobe-finned fi…
Chronic pancreatitis is an inflammatory disorder of the pancreas. We analyzed CPA1, encoding carboxypeptidase A1, in subjects with nonalcoholic chronic pancreatitis (cases) and controls in a German discovery set and three replication sets. …
PurposeTo test whether environmental pollutants could affect fertility in humans.Methods31 women and 16 men from Tanzania and 21 couples from Germany were included (n = 89). Pesticides and polychlorinated biphenyls were measured in serum, f…

Endometriosis is an important clinical problem in routine practice. Besides the problems of dysmenorrhea, dyspareunia and chronic abdominal pain, women with endometriosis are often infertile. We performed a systematic literature review on t…
Gonadotropin-releasing hormone (GnRH) antagonists are now widely used in protocols of patients with controlled ovarian hyperstimulation to treat infertility. By competitively binding to the pituitary GnRH receptor, they lead to a rapid supp…
Pulmonary lesions and ureter involvement are rare complications of endometriosis. We describe the first case with an involvement of both sites in this condition. The radiographs showed "pulmonary metastases" together with clinical findings …
Due to the different pharmacological mode of action, GnRH-antagonists seem to open up new avenues to hormonal treatment in several indications. Although it may be still too early to speculate about the possible end of the era of GnRH-agonis…
