Nutrigenetic determinants of neural tube defects in India.

Indian pediatrics - 1 Jun 2009

Godbole Koumudi, Deshmukh Urmila, Yajnik Chittaranjan

Abstract excerpt

JUSTIFICATION: Neural tube defects (NTDs) are one of the commonest birth defects with a high incidence in India. However, few studies have systematically looked into the etio-pathogeneis of NTDs, which mainly includes nutritional deficiencies and genetic predisposition. Efforts are afoot for universal food fortification with folic acid in the hope of preventing NTDs, without factual evidence of folate deficiency...
