Identification of SPOCK2 as a susceptibility gene for bronchopulmonary dysplasia: Genome-wide analysis of bronchopulmonary dysplasia
RATIONALE: Bronchopulmonary dysplasia is the most common chronic respiratory disease in premature infants. Genetic factors might contribute to bronchopulmonary dysplasia susceptibility. OBJECTIVES: To identify genetic variants involved in bronchopulmonary dysplasia through a genome-wide association...

Summary: | RATIONALE: Bronchopulmonary dysplasia is the most common chronic respiratory disease in premature infants. Genetic factors might contribute to bronchopulmonary dysplasia susceptibility. OBJECTIVES: To identify genetic variants involved in bronchopulmonary dysplasia through a genome-wide association study. METHODS: We prospectively evaluated 418 premature neonates (gestational age |
