Abstract:Aim
To examine the connection between SNPs of ADAMTS14 gene rs4747096 and KOA and to assess risk factors associated with KOA.
Methods
A case control study was conducted on 158 patients with KOA and 120 controls with comparable age and sex randomly recruited from National Research Centre employees. All participants were subjected to full history taking, assessment of KOA severity using WOMAC scoring system, and thorough clinical examination. Blood sample was collected for detection of ADAMTS14/rs4747096 gene … Show more
