Published in 2022 at "Journal of Obstetrics and Gynaecology Research"

DOI: 10.1111/jog.15356

Abstract: There is no consensus on the correlation between human epididymis protein 4 (HE4) and prognosis of endometrial cancer (EC). Therefore, we performed a meta‐analysis to assess the relationship between HE4 and prognosis of EC. read more here.
