Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND: Steroid-induced osteonecrosis of the femoral head (ONFH) is a complex disease affected by genetics. LncRNA LINC-PINT and LINC00599 have been proved to be associated with susceptibility to a variety of diseases, however it is not clear whether they are related to steroid-induced ONFH. Therefore, this study was aimed at investigating the correlation between the polymorphisms of LINC-PINT and LINC00599...
