Maternal vitamin D receptor genetic variation contributes to infant birthweight among black mothers.

American journal of medical genetics. Part A - 1 Jun 2011

Swamy Geeta K, Garrett Melanie E, Miranda Marie Lynn, Ashley-Koch Allison E

Abstract excerpt

Racial disparity in pregnancy outcomes is one of the most striking and poorly understood inequalities in American health. Genetic variability may be an important host factor influencing disparate birth outcomes between non-Hispanic black (NHB) and non-Hispanic white (NHW) women. Race-specific all...
