Background Neural tube defects (NTD) are among the most common defects affecting 1:
1000 births. They are caused by a failure of neural tube closure during development. Their …

Background: Neural tube defects (NTD) have a strong genetic component, with up to 70% of
variance in human prevalence determined by heritable factors. Although the identification of …

Neural tube defects (NTDs) represent a common group of severe congenital malformations
that result from failure of neural tube closure during early development. Their etiology is …

Neural tube defects (NTDs) represent a common group of severe congenital malformations
of the central nervous system. They result from failure of neural tube closure during early …

Neural tube defects (NTDs) are a classic example of preventable birth defects for which
there is a proven‐effective intervention, folic acid (FA); however, further methods of …

It has been estimated that 60–70% of neural tube defects (NTDs) have a genetic component,
but few causative genes have been identified. The lack of information on genes associated …

Abstract Background Neural tube defects (NTDs) are failure of neural tube closure, which
includes multiple central nervous system phenotypes. More than 300 mouse mutant strains …

Neural tube defects (NTDs) are a group of severe congenital abnormalities resulting from
the failure of neurulation. The pattern of inheritance of these complex defects is …
