“…The findings in this paper may be intuitive to many the influence of acquired factors (particularly childbirth) are more likely to be important than genetic or epigenetic considerations in females. Yet this conclusion is at odds with some of the previous findings relating to Fibulin-5 in female pelvic ligaments, as the authors allude to, and is also discrepant with a recent study on Fibulin-5 genetic polymorphisms in females with advanced pelvic organ prolapse [2].…”

“…The FBLN5 gene rs929608 variation (IVS10-45 A>G) is located in intron 10 (27). Khadzhieva et al (28) showed no association between the FBLN5 rs929608 (T>C) variation and pelvic organ prolapse. Random Forests analysis ranking is found 3 for rs929608 in prostate cancer aggressiveness and Lin et al (29) suggested that FBLN5 gene variation can influence this disease.…”

“…Changes in blood concentrations of fibulins have been reported in numerous clinical settings, including in patients with intracerebral hemorrhage, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, aortic aneurysm, peripheral vascular disease, demyelinating neuropathy, acute pulmonary embolism, malignancies, and pelvic organ prolapse. [25][26][27][28][29] The presence of any of these conditions in a patient with acute chest pain may influence the diagnostic potential of fibulins. Therefore, our findings have to be interpreted with caution.…”
