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...
