A Genome-Wide Association Study of spontaneous preterm birth in a European population

2013-11-25

Abstract excerpt

<h4>Background: </h4> Preterm birth is defined as a birth prior to 37 completed weeks’ gestation. It affects more than 10% of all births worldwide, and is the leading cause of neonatal mortality in non-anomalous newborns. Even if the preterm newborn survives, there is an increased risk of lifelong morbidity. Despite the magnitude of this public health problem, the etiology of spontaneous preterm birth is not well...
