Zusammenfassung:Disclosed is a method of identifying a greater risk for developing bronchopulmonary dysplasia (BPD) in a preterm infant. The method comprises obtaining a genomic DNA sample from the preterm infant's mother, identifying the nucleotide of rs2280789 SNP in the RANTES gene and the nucleotide of rs1800566 SNP in the NQO1 gene, and determining the preterm infant as being at risk of developing BPD when the genotype of rs2280789 SNP carries C nucleotide and the genotype of rs1800566 SNP carries T nucleotide.
