Gene-Gene Interactions in the Folate Metabolic Pathway and the Risk of Conotruncal Heart Defects

Conotruncal and related heart defects (CTRD) are common, complex malformations. Although there are few established risk factors, there is evidence that genetic variation in the folate metabolic pathway influences CTRD risk. This study was undertaken to assess the association between inherited (i.e.,...
