Abstract excerpt
OBJECTIVE: We recently identified a missense variant (Glu298Asp) within exon 7 of the endothelial nitric oxide synthase (eNOS) gene that is associated with severe preeclampsia in the Japanese population. Our objective was to analyze the association between the Glu298Asp eNOS gene variant and severe preeclampsia in a developing country where the incidence of preeclampsia is more frequent. METHODS: The study...
