A quest for genetic causes underlying signaling pathways associated with neural tube defects

open access: yesFrontiers in Pediatrics, 2023
Neural tube defects (NTDs) are serious congenital deformities of the nervous system that occur owing to the failure of normal neural tube closures. Genetic and non-genetic factors contribute to the etiology of neural tube defects in humans, indicating ...

Thoracic and lumbar multiple neural tube defects with post repair hydrocephalus: A case report and literature review

open access: yesInterdisciplinary Neurosurgery, 2023
Background: Neural tube defects are among the most common congenital anomalies, particularly in developing countries owing to significant folic acid deficiency. Nevertheless, multiple-site open neural tube defects are extremely rare.

Birth prevalence of neural tube defects and associated risk factors in Africa: a systematic review and meta-analysis

open access: yesBMC Pediatrics, 2021
Background Neural tube defects are common congenital anomalies that result from early malformation in the development of the spinal cord and brain. It is related to substantial mortality, morbidity, disability, and psychological and economic costs.

Determinants of neural tube defect among children at zewditu memorial hospital, addis ababa, ethiopia a case control study

open access: yesInternational Journal of Africa Nursing Sciences, 2021
Background: Neural tube defects are one of the most common malformations with a worldwide prevalence of 1–3 per1000 live births. They are the result of failure of the neural tube to close during the 21–28 embryonic days and it had multi-factorial ...

Global analysis of cell behavior and protein dynamics reveals region-specific roles for Shroom3 and N-cadherin during neural tube closure

open access: yeseLife, 2022
Failures of neural tube closure are common and serious birth defects, yet we have a poor understanding of the interaction of genetics and cell biology during neural tube closure.

A case report of triple neural tube defect: revisiting the multisite closure theory

open access: yesBMC Surgery, 2019
Background Triple neural tube defects are rare. To the author’s knowledge, there are only four reported cases available in the literature up to date. Controversies exist with regards to the development of neural tube defects.

Neural tube defects

open access: yesMRIMS Journal of Health Sciences, 2021
Neural tube defects (NTDs) are the most common congenital malformations (CMFs) in developing fetus. The study was done to determine the incidence and clinical profile of NTDs at a tertiary care hospital. The study was done at Malla Reddy Institute of Medical Sciences, Suraram, Hyderabad, from June 2019 to June 2020.
