Birth Anomalies in Monozygotic and Dizygotic Twins: Results From the California Twin Registry

28 Sept 2018

Abstract excerpt

BACKGROUND: Inherited factors and maternal behaviors are thought to play an important role in the etiology of several congenital malformations. Twin studies can offer additional evidence regarding the contribution of genetic and lifestyle factors to common birth anomalies, but few large-scale studies have been reported. METHODS: We included data from twins (20,803 pairs) from the population-based California Twin...
