Abstract excerpt
OBJECTIVE: To investigate the association between the TGFA:c.3851T > C (rs11466285) and TGFA:c.3822G > A (rs3771523) single-nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) and nonsyndromic cleft lip and/or cleft palate (CL/P) with microarray in north China. DESIGN AND SETTING: Test association by both case-control and case-parent analysis. SUBJECTS AND METHODS: Two SNPs of 150 controls, 166 cases, and 271 of their parents were...
