The heritability of preterm delivery.

Obstetrics and gynecology - 1 Dec 2005

Ward Kenneth, Argyle VeeAnn, Meade Mary, Nelson Lesa

Abstract excerpt

OBJECTIVE: To study the heritability of preterm delivery. METHODS: Women who delivered a singleton infant at less than 36 weeks of gestation were asked about their family history. Twenty-eight families were identified in which the proband had at least five first- or second-degree relatives with preterm delivery. An extensive genealogy database (GenDB) was constructed using more than 9,000 genealogy sources in the...
