Abstract excerpt

OBJECTIVE: To evaluate the relationship between genetic ancestry and uterine fibroid characteristics. DESIGN: Cross-sectional study. SETTING: Not applicable. PATIENT(S): A total of 609 African American participants with image- or surgery-confirmed fibroids in a biorepository at Vanderbilt University electronic health record biorepository and the Coronary Artery Risk Development in Young Adults studies were...
