Abstract excerpt
PURPOSE: Neural tube defects (NTDs) are common congenital malformations. In this study, we aimed to explore the association between single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) related to one-carbon metabolism (OCM) and NTDs in Han population of Northern China. METHODS: A case-control study was conducted in 152 children with NTDs and 169 controls. Twenty-nine SNPs in five genes were genotyped by Sequenom MassARRAY...
