PO-0744 Genome-wide Association Study Of Bronchopulmonary Dysplasia

Background and aimsBronchopulmonary dysplasia (BPD) is the most common chronic disease associated with very preterm birth. BPD has a significant genetic background but the predisposing genes are insufficiently known. The aim is to find genetic factors that predispose to moderate-severe BPD using a h...

Zusammenfassung:Background and aimsBronchopulmonary dysplasia (BPD) is the most common chronic disease associated with very preterm birth. BPD has a significant genetic background but the predisposing genes are insufficiently known. The aim is to find genetic factors that predispose to moderate-severe BPD using a hypothesis-free, genome-wide approach.MethodsThe study populations included preterm infants (gestational age
