Screening of a panel of steroid-related genes showed polymorphisms of aromatase genes confer susceptibility to advanced stage endometriosis in the Taiwanese Han population

Objective: To establish a multilocus model for studying the effect of steroid-related genes on advanced stage endometriosis. Materials and methods: A total of 121 patients with advanced stage endometriosis and 171 control women were included. Eighteen single-nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) from nine...
