Abstract excerpt
OBJECTIVE: In a recent study single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) in the COL11A1 gene were found to be associated with hip osteoarthritis (OA) among European populations. In this study, our aim was to identify common genetic variants in COL11A1 predisposing to primary hip OA in Han Chinese individuals. METHODS: We designed a case-control study that included 313 hip OA patients and 911 unrelated healthy...
