Cited in national practice guidance

The Institute’s 2021 meta-analysis comparing salpingectomy with tubal ligation (Mills K, Marchand G, Sainz K, et al. Am J Obstet Gynecol. 2021;224(3):258-265.e4) was cited in the Canadian Medical Association Journal’s practice guidance on opportunistic salpingectomy for ovarian cancer risk reduction (CMAJ. 2024;196(22):E765). It appears there alongside Guideline No. 366 of the Society of Obstetricians and Gynaecologists of Canada and ACOG Committee Opinion No. 774, as one of six supporting sources and the only systematic review or meta-analysis among them. The same paper is cited in Endocrine Reviews (2025;46(5):736-759) in guidance on contraceptive selection for the endocrine patient.
