Spina bifida phenotypes in infants or fetuses of obese mothers.

Teratology - 1 May 2000

Shaw G M, Todoroff K, Finnell R H, Lammer E J

Abstract excerpt

BACKGROUND: A twofold or greater risk of neural tube defect (NTD)-affected pregnancy has been associated with prepregnant obesity, where obesity was defined as body mass index (BMI) of >29 kg/m(2). Risks have been more elevated for spina bifida than for anencephaly. METHODS: We investigated whether finer phenotypic classifications of spina bifida, in combination with other factors, were associated with a BMI of...
