Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND: Prediction of the risk of developing surgical site infection (SSI) in patients following total knee arthroplasty (TKA) is of clinical importance. Genetic susceptibility is involved in developing TKA-related SSI. Previously reported models for predicting SSI were constructed using nongenetic risk factors without incorporating genetic risk factors. To address this issue, we performed a genome-wide...
