Abstract excerpt

OBJECTIVE: To replicate results from a previous genome-wide association study of European ancestry women, in which a positive association was found between uterine leiomyomata (UL) and rs4247357, a single-nucleotide polymorphism located near the fatty acid synthase (FASN) gene. DESIGN: Prospective cohort study. SETTING: Not applicable. PATIENT(S): African-American women aged 23-50 years, who were premenopausal...
