Abstract excerpt
Spontaneous preterm delivery (SPTD) with gestational age between 28 and 37 complete weeks was reported to have a genetic predisposition in lipids metabolism. This study aimed to investigate the association between the lipid levels and gene polymorphisms of ABCA1 (rs2422493), APOE (rs7412) and HMGCR (rs12916) in Chinese pregnant women with SPTD. A case-control study was conducted at the baseline randomization in...
