Accumulating evidence suggests that placental abruption has a complex multifactorial pathogenesis that involves cardiovascular risk and metabolic dysfunction. However, comprehensive assessment of variations in genes involved in cardiometabolic traits associated with the risk of placental abruption is lacking. We conducted a case-control study investigating associations of variations in maternal cardiometabolic genes (characterized using 217,697 SNPs on the Illumina Cardio-Metabo Chip) with risk ...[more]
