Abstract

Summary of the research findings

Despite evidence that genetic factors contribute to the duration of gestation and the risk of preterm birth, robust associations with genetic variants have not been identified. We used large data sets that included the gestational duration to determine possible genetic associations.

3,331 European ancestry preterm birth mothers, 40,236 European ancestry term birth mothers
