Abstract excerpt
INTRODUCTION AND HYPOTHESIS: Extracellular matrix (ECM) synthesis and metabolism abnormalities may influence the pelvic supporting system and lead to the occurrence and development of pelvic organ prolapse (POP). Genetic polymorphisms of such related genes have been increasingly studied. This study aims to explore the association between the single-nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) of genes encoding ECM processing...
