متن کاملNeural tube defects in Western Australia 1966-81 and a review of Australian data 1942-81.

The initial lower rate may have been due to underascertainment, but the recent dramatic fall is statistically sig...
متن کاملAir Pollution, Neighbourhood Socioeconomic Factors, and Neural Tube Defects in the San Joaquin Valley of California.

METHODS We used data from the California Center of the National Birth Defects Study and the Children's...
