Abstract excerpt
OBJECTIVE: The study evaluated the association of BMP4 tag-SNPs and SNP-SNP interactions involving genes active by BMP4 pathway during craniofacial development in the susceptibility of nonsyndromic orofacial clefts (NSOC) in the Brazilian population. DESIGN: Case-control study. SETTING: Brazilian Oral Cleft Group. PARTICIPANTS: The study included 881 healthy controls and 800 patients with different types of NSOC:...
