Fetal and Maternal Genes’ Influence on Gestational Age in a Quantitative Genetic Analysis of 244,000 Swedish Births

7 Apr 2013

Abstract excerpt

Although there is increasing evidence that genetic factors influence gestational age, it is unclear to what extent this is due to fetal and/or maternal genes. In this study, we apply a novel analytical model to estimate genetic and environmental contributions to pregnancy history records obtained from 165,952 Swedish families consisting of offspring of twins, full siblings, and half-siblings (1987-2008).
