This observational case-control study investigated the association between progesterone receptor gene promoter region +331G/A polymorphism and disease risk in women undergoing surgical procedures for endometriosis or adenomyosis. The researchers analyzed blood samples from patients at a hospital in Palembang, Indonesia, comparing genotype frequencies between affected cases and healthy controls using PCR-RFLP techniques. Results indicated that women carrying the heterozygous +331G/A genotype faced a significantly increased risk of developing endometriosis compared to those with the wild-type G/G genotype, with an odds ratio of 3.29. This paper is centrally about endometriosis — specifically examining genetic predispositions related to progesterone receptor polymorphisms in an Indonesian population.
