  • Atlas of genetic and phenotypic associations across 42 female reproductive health diagnoses. - Nature medicine (2025) · Pujol Gualdo N, Džigurski J, Rukins V, Pajuste FD, Wolford BN, Võsa M, Golob M, Haug L, Alver M, Läll K, Peters M, Brumpton BM, Palta P, Mägi R, Laisk T · PubMed 40069456

    The genetic background of many female reproductive health diagnoses remains uncharacterized, compromising our understanding of the underlying biology. Here, we map the genetic architecture across 42 female-specific health conditions using data from up to 293,618 women from two large population-based cohorts, the Estonian Biobank and the FinnGen study. Our study illustrates the utility of genetic analyses in understanding women's health better. As specific examples, we describe genetic risk factors for ovarian cysts that elucidate the genetic determinants of folliculogenesis and, by leveraging population-specific variants, uncover new candidate genes for uterine fibroids. We find that most female reproductive health diagnoses have a heritable component, with varying degrees of polygenicity

  • Genome-wide association study meta-analysis supports association between MUC1 and ectopic pregnancy - Unknown journal (n.d.) · Unknown authors · PubMed 37877466

    ABSTRACT: Abstract STUDY QUESTION Can we identify genetic variants associated with ectopic pregnancy by undertaking the first genome-wide association study (GWAS) leveraging two large-scale biobank initiatives? SUMMARY ANSWER We identified two novel genome-wide significant associations with ectopic pregnancy, highlighting MUC1 (mucin 1) as the most plausible affected gene. WHAT IS KNOWN ALREADY Ectopic pregnancy is an important cause of maternal morbidity and mortality worldwide. Despite being a common early pregnancy complication, the genetic predisposition to this condition remains understudied and no large scale genetic studies have been performed so far. STUDY DESIGN, SIZE, DURATION A GWAS meta-analysis including 7070 women with ectopic pregnancy and 248 810 controls from Estonian Bi
