Neural tube defects (NTDs) are congenital malformations of the central nervous system and axial skeleton that range from the fatal to the asymptomatic. NTDs can be classified according to the embryonic event that is disturbed, and can result from a variety of genetic defects and environmental influences. Understanding the genetic and embryonic basis of

Genetics of neural tube defects
Seminars in Pediatric Neurology, 2001Neural tube defects (NTDs) are common congenital malformations that occur when the embryonic neural tube fails to close properly during early development. Although multifactorial in origin, NTDs appear to have a strong genetic component. Mouse NTD mutants provide useful models for the study of candidate genes involved in neural tube development and ...

Neural tube defects in pondicherry
The Indian Journal of Pediatrics, 2005This study was carried out to identify the trend and the frequency of neural tube defects from July 1998 to June 2004.A total of 310 babies were born with neural tube defects with the overall frequency of 5.7/1000 births compared to 2.3/1000 births observed earlier in our hospital.The most common defect was spina bifida (54.8%) followed by anencephaly (

Neural tube defects in the Sikhs
American Journal of Medical Genetics, 1983AbstractBackground information on the incidence of neural tube defects (NTD) in Sikhs in India and elsewhere is given. The incidence of NTD in the Sikh population of British Columbia is estimated for 4 years and found to be 2.86 per 1,000 births. The overall rate for NTD in all B.C. births for these same years is 1.26 per 1,000 births.

Are Encephaloceles Neural Tube Defects?
Pediatrics, 2006OBJECTIVE. Encephalocele is classified as a neural tube defect, but questions have been raised regarding whether its epidemiological characteristics are similar to those of other neural tube defects.DESIGN. We compared characteristics of temporal trends in, and the impact of folic acid grain fortification on, the prevalence of encephalocele, spina ...

Epidemiology of neural tube defects
American Journal of Medical Genetics Part C: Seminars in Medical Genetics, 2005AbstractThe epidemiological investigation of the common open neural tube defects (NTDs), anencephaly, and spina bifida, has a long history. The most significant finding from these past studies of NTDs was the identification of the protective effect of maternal, periconceptional supplementation with folic acid.
