EFFECT OF FOLIC ACID FORTIFICATION ON THE PREVALENCE OF NEURAL TUBE CLOSING DEFECTS IN GOIÁS

2020-01-01

Abstract excerpt

Introduction: Neural Tube Closure Defects classify the most common congenital anomalies of the central nervous system and constitute the main preventable congenital malformation through nutritional strategies. Although its mechanism of action is little known, it is known that folic acid is an important cofactor in the synthesis of amino acids and nucleic acids, therefore, the lack of this nutrient can prevent the...
