Abstract excerpt
The objective of the present study is to examine the association between the presence of various forms of matrix metalloproteinase genes (MMP-1, MMP-9, TIMP-1 and TIMP-2) and their tissue inhibitors, and the incidence of intraventricular haemorrhage (IVH) in premature neonates. The data for this study were obtained from samples of peripheral venous blood, which were collected and stored post-delivery. The...
