Sowohl für das Ovarialkarzinom als auch für Endometriose sind genetische Varianten als Risikofaktoren validiert. Endometriose ist als Risikofaktor für das klarzellige, das endometrioide und das low grade seröse Ovarialkarzinom beschrieben. …

Abstract Epidemiological, biological, and molecular data suggest links between endometriosis and endometrial cancer, with recent epidemiological studies providing evidence for an association between a previous diagnosis of endometriosis and…

Several genetic variants have been validated as risk factors for endometriosis, endometrial and ovarian cancer. Endometriosis has also been described as a risk factor for endometrial and ovarian cancer. The aim of the present study was to t…

Disruption in circadian gene expression, whether due to genetic variation or environmental factors (e.g., light at night, shiftwork), is associated with increased incidence of breast, prostate, gastrointestinal and hematologic cancers and g…

Background: No screening programs are available for ovarian or endometrial cancer. One reason for this is the low incidence of the conditions, resulting in low positive predictive values for tests, which are not very specific. One way of ad…

There is no screening program for ovarian or endometrial cancer. One reason for that could be the relatively low incidence with subsequently low positive predictive values for tests with low specifity. One way to address the problem could b…

A missense single-nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) in the immune modulatory gene IL1A has been associated with ovarian cancer risk (rs17561). Although the exact mechanism through which this SNP alters risk of ovarian cancer is not clearly unde…

INTRODUCTION: Dysmenorrhoea is the major symptom in women with endometriosis. Recently, pain modulation through Neurokinin-1-receptor (NK1R) pathways have been investigated in neuropathic pain patients. Aim of this study was, therefore, to …
