Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND/OBJECTIVES: Intervertebral disc degeneration (IDD) is a multifactorial spinal degenerative condition influenced by inherited susceptibility and environmental exposures. Genetic evidence from Chinese Han populations remains limited. This study aimed to evaluate GWAS-informed and previously reported candidate single-nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) associated with IDD and to explore potential gene-gene...
