The Genetic Architecture of Cervical Length is Shared with Spontaneous Preterm Birth Risk

2024-05-24

Abstract excerpt

<h4>ABSTRACT</h4> <h4>Study Question</h4> Is there a genetic contribution to the change in cervical length during pregnancy and, if so, how is this related to the known genetic contribution to pregnancy duration? <h4>Summary Answer</h4> Genomic analyses suggest that cervical length change across pregnancy is a polygenic trait with appreciable heritability. Bivariate genetic correlations estimated using genome-wide...
