Study Type: Observational

Official Title: Collagen Alterations in Patients With Abdominal Wall Hernias

Brief Summary: The aim of this study was to evaluate collagen turnover in patients with multiple hernias

Detailed Summary: Venous blood was collected and markers for type IV and V collagen synthesis and breakdown was measured
Sponsor: Bispebjerg Hospital

Current Primary Outcome: Type IV and V collagen synthesis and breakdown [ Time Frame: 3 months ]

Products from type IV and V collagen synthesis and breakdown are measured in serum with ELISA from Nordic Bioscience A/S, Herlev, Denmark. Specifically, the biomarker for type IV collagen synthesis (P4NP) and breakdown (C4M), and for type V collagen synthesis (P5CP) and breakdown (C5M) was measured.


Original Primary Outcome: Same as current
