Abstract

The ER-α gene polymorphisms have been reported to be associated with uterine leiomyoma (ULM) risk. The purpose of the present study was to perform a meta-analysis to explore the polymorphisms in the ER-α gene and the risk of ULM. A comprehensive search for relevant articles was conducted in MEDLINE (Ovid), PubMed, Embase, Springer, EBSCO, Web of Science, CNKI, Wanfang, Weipu, and Google Scholar. A total of nine articles were identified. Among the nine articles, 11 cohorts reported the PvuII polymorphism and six reported the XbaI polymorphism. The strength of the relationships between the polymorphisms in ER-α (PvuII and XbaI) and the risk of ULM was assessed by odds ratios (ORs). The studies provided overall OR estimates for PvuII and XbaI, leading to a pooled OR of 1.41 (PP+Pp vs. pp: OR = 1.41, 95 % confidence interval (95 %CI) = 1.02–1.96, P = 0.04), 1.13 (XX+Xx vs. xx: OR = 1.13, 95 %CI = 0.91–1.41, P = 0.25), respectively. The PvuII polymorphism in the ER-α gene may be a risk factor for ULM. Future studies are needed to validate our conclusions.

Umsetzung der POMGAT-Leitlinie läuft

03.05.2024 DCK 2024 Kongressbericht

Seit November 2023 gibt es evidenzbasierte Empfehlungen zum perioperativen Management bei gastrointestinalen Tumoren (POMGAT) auf S3-Niveau. Vieles wird schon entsprechend der Empfehlungen durchgeführt. Wo es im Alltag noch hapert, zeigt eine Umfrage in einem Klinikverbund.

CUP-Syndrom: Künstliche Intelligenz kann Primärtumor finden

30.04.2024 Künstliche Intelligenz Nachrichten

Krebserkrankungen unbekannten Ursprungs (CUP) sind eine diagnostische Herausforderung. KI-Systeme können Pathologen dabei unterstützen, zytologische Bilder zu interpretieren, um den Primärtumor zu lokalisieren.

Sind Frauen die fähigeren Ärzte?

30.04.2024 Gendermedizin Nachrichten

Patienten, die von Ärztinnen behandelt werden, dürfen offenbar auf bessere Therapieergebnisse hoffen als Patienten von Ärzten. Besonders gilt das offenbar für weibliche Kranke, wie eine Studie zeigt.

Adjuvante Immuntherapie verlängert Leben bei RCC

25.04.2024 Nierenkarzinom Nachrichten

Nun gibt es auch Resultate zum Gesamtüberleben: Eine adjuvante Pembrolizumab-Therapie konnte in einer Phase-3-Studie das Leben von Menschen mit Nierenzellkarzinom deutlich verlängern. Die Sterberate war im Vergleich zu Placebo um 38% geringer.
