Abstract excerpt
Aim: To examine the relationship of the RETN and RARRES2 genes with hand osteoarthritis (HOA) susceptibility risk, clinical severity and pain. Methods: A total of 3740 subjects comprising 1180 participants with HOA and 2560 controls were enrolled. Genetic association was evaluated at both single marker and haplotype levels using PLINK. Results: Two significant hits, single-nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) rs4721...
