Abstract excerpt
OBJECTIVE: Understanding the mechanisms of hip disease, such as osteoarthritis (OA), is crucial to advance their treatment. Such hip diseases often involve specific morphological changes. Genetic variations, called single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs), influence various hip morphological parameters. This study investigated the biological relevance of SNPs correlated to hip morphology in genome-wide association...
