Abstract:Knee osteoarthritis (OA), which is one of the most common degenerative joint diseases, presents a multifactorial etiology, involving multiple causative factors including genetic and environmental determinants. Four human neutrophil antigen (HNA) systems can be determined using each HNA allele by single-nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs). However, there are no data on HNA polymorphisms and knee OA in Thailand, so we investigated the association of HNA SNPs and knee OA in the Thai population. In a case-control stud… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
