Abstract excerpt
We investigated the association between the risk of preterm delivery and each metabolic gene of glutathione S-transferases micro 1 (GSTM1), theta 1 (GSTT1) and cytochrome P450IA1 (CYP1A1) along with exposure to particulate matter<10 microm (PM10). This study was assumed to identify gene-environment interaction that increases the risk of preterm delivery. A case-control study was carried out on 117 women with...
