Abstract excerpt

STUDY DESIGN: Cross-sectional epidemiologic study. OBJECTIVE: To evaluate the interaction between known genetic risk factors and whole-body vibration for symptomatic intervertebral disc disease (IDD) in an occupational sample. SUMMARY OF BACKGROUND DATA: Risk factors of IDD include, among others, whole-body vibration and heredity. In this study, the importance of a set of known genetic risk factors and whole-body...
