Brief Summary: This multicenter, international, retrospective study evaluated fertility potential and gonadal function in 326 adolescent and young adult cancer survivors. Risk factors for impairment included hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HCT) conditioning regimen (myeloablative conditioning, MAC vs reduced-intensity conditioning, RIC).The prevalence of gonadal hormone failure in females was 55.3% (defined as FSH >30 mIU/mL with an estradio...

Brief Summary: This study investigated genetic factors influencing normal variation in TSH levels (range 0.4 to 4.0 mIU/L) through a large genome-wide association study (GWAS) involving 247,107 European ancestry individuals. It identified 260 independent sentinel variants, of which 158 are novel. These variants explained 22.8% of TSH variance within the adult reference interval, implicating 112 putative causal genes, 76 of which had not been previously linked to TSH regulation...
