Significant interpopulation differentiation at candidate loci may underlie ethnic disparities in the prevalence of uterine fibroids.

Journal of genetics - 1 Jan 2021

Dvornyk Volodymyr

Abstract excerpt

Uterine fibroids (UF) are a significant health problem bearing a substantial economic burden. The prevalence of the disease is disparate in populations of different ethnic ancestry being the highest in Africans. This study analysed worldwide population differentiation at the genomewide association study (GWAS)-significant UF-associated loci to test a hypothesis that population structure at risk loci might...
