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…

article 2025
The burden of endometriosis on quality of life in Danish women: an analysis of the Danish Blood Donor Study
BMC medicine ·doi:10.1186/s12916-025-04398-z

BACKGROUND: Endometriosis is a complex condition with a wide range of comorbidities. It is widely underdiagnosed, with a diagnostic delay of 4 to 10 years, potentially leading to worsened disease progression and a higher burden of comorbidi…

other 2024
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…

meta-analysis 2023
The genetic basis of endometriosis and comorbidity with other pain and inflammatory conditions
Nature genetics ·doi:10.1038/s41588-023-01323-z

Endometriosis is a common condition associated with debilitating pelvic pain and infertility. A genome-wide association study meta-analysis, including 60,674 cases and 701,926 controls of European and East Asian descent, identified 42 genom…

preprint 2018
Large-scale genome-wide association meta-analysis of endometriosis reveals 13 novel loci and genetically-associated comorbidity with other pain conditions
·doi:10.1101/406967

Abstract Endometriosis is a common complex inflammatory condition characterised by the presence of endometrium-like tissue outside the uterus, mainly in the pelvic area. It is associated with chronic pelvic pain and infertility, and its pat…
