Genetics of the cervix in relation to preterm birth.

Seminars in perinatology - 1 Oct 2009

Warren Jennifer E, Silver Robert M

Abstract excerpt

Preterm birth is the most significant problem encountered in obstetrics in the developed world. Genetic factors are thought to play a role in a proportion of preterm births, and candidate genes have been studied in several areas relevant to parturition. Abnormal cervical function, a clinical spectrum, including cervical insufficiency (CI), is a contributing factor to the overall problem of preterm birth. There...
