Genetic associations in preterm birth: a primer of marker selection, study design, and data analysis.

Journal of the Society for Gynecologic Investigation - 1 Dec 2006

Menon Ramkumar, Fortunato Stephen J, Thorsen Poul, Williams Scott

Abstract excerpt

Spontaneous preterm birth (PTB; delivery before 37 weeks gestation) is a primary risk factor for infant morbidity and mortality. The etiology is unclear, but there is evidence that there is a genetic predisposition to PTB. Armed with the suggestion of genetic risk factors and the failure to identify useful biomarkers, investigators are starting to actively pursue the role of genetic predisposition in PTB. Several...
