Abstract excerpt
INTRODUCTION AND HYPOTHESIS: The rs1800255, COL3A1 2209 G>A polymorphism in the alpha 1 chain of collagen type III has been associated with an increased risk of pelvic organ prolapse (POP). In one of our previous studies however, polymerase chain reaction-based restriction fragment length polymorphism (PCR-RFLP) misdiagnosed rs1800255, COL3A1 2209 G>A in 6 % of cases. The high-resolution melting (HRM) analysis on...
