Abstract excerpt
OBJECTIVES: Necrosis of femoral head is a severe pathological state with multiple etiologies. This study investigated the association of the 27-bp repeat polymorphism in intron 4 and G894T polymorphism in exon 7 of the endothelial nitric oxide synthase (eNOS) gene with the pathogenesis of avascular necrosis of femoral head (ANFH). METHODS: A total of 125 non-traumatic ANFH patients and 126 healthy controls were...
