Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND: Pregnancy induces significant changes in calcium metabolism and bone turnover. Genetic variation in estrogen (ESR1) and vitamin D (VDR) receptors may modulate maternal skeletal adaptation, but evidence in pregnancy and the postpartum period is limited. AIMS: To evaluate the association between single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) in the ESR1 and VDR genes and maternal bone resorption during...
