Expanding the genetic landscape of endometriosis: Integrative -omics analyses implicate key genes and pathways in a multi-ancestry study of over one million women
Research square ·doi:10.21203/rs.3.rs-8116602/v1

We report the findings of a genome-wide association study (GWAS) meta-analysis of endometriosis across 14 biobanks worldwide, including 32% non-European patient participants, as part of the Global Biobank Meta-Analysis Initiative (GBMI). Ou…

Enhancing genetic association power in endometriosis through unsupervised clustering of clinical subtypes identified from electronic health records
Research square ·doi:10.21203/rs.3.rs-5004325/v1

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 may be attributabl…

Enhancing Genetic Association Power in Endometriosis through Unsupervised Clustering of Clinical Subtypes Identified from Electronic Health Records
medRxiv : the preprint server for health sciences ·doi:10.1101/2024.04.22.24306092

BACKGROUND: Endometriosis affects 10% of reproductive-age women, and yet, it goes undiagnosed for 3.6 years on average after symptoms onset. Despite large GWAS meta-analyses (N > 750,000), only a few dozen causal loci have been identified. …

Expanding the genetic landscape of endometriosis: Integrative -omics analyses uncover key pathways from a multi-ancestry study of over 900,000 women
medRxiv : the preprint server for health sciences ·doi:10.1101/2024.11.26.24316723

We report the findings of a genome-wide association study (GWAS) meta-analysis of endometriosis consisting of a large portion (31%) of non-European samples across 14 biobanks worldwide as part of the Global Biobank Meta-Analysis Initiative …

Inference of Causal Relationships Between Genetic Risk Factors for Cardiometabolic Phenotypes and Female-Specific Health Conditions
Journal of the American Heart Association ·doi:10.1161/JAHA.121.026561

Background Cardiometabolic diseases are highly comorbid, but their relationship with female-specific or overwhelmingly female-predominant health conditions (breast cancer, endometriosis, pregnancy complications) is understudied. This study …

Inference of causal relationships between genetic risk factors for cardiometabolic phenotypes and female-specific health conditions
·doi:10.21203/rs.3.rs-1386628/v1

Abstract Cardiometabolic diseases are highly comorbid, but their relationship with female-specific health conditions (breast cancer, endometriosis, pregnancy complications) is understudied. Using electronic health record data from 71,008 a…

Variants in the fetal genome near pro-inflammatory cytokine genes on 2q13 associate with gestational duration.
Nature communications ·doi:10.1038/s41467-019-11881-8

The duration of pregnancy is influenced by fetal and maternal genetic and non-genetic factors. Here we report a fetal genome-wide association meta-analysis of gestational duration, and early preterm, preterm, and postterm birth in 84,689 in…

Genetic Associations with Gestational Duration and Spontaneous Preterm Birth.
The New England journal of medicine ·doi:10.1056/nejmoa1612665

BackgroundDespite evidence that genetic factors contribute to the duration of gestation and the risk of preterm birth, robust associations with genetic variants have not been identified. We used large data sets that included the gestational…
