  • Title: Epidemiology of neural tube defects, Hawaii, 1986-1997.
    Author: Forrester MB, Merz RD.
    Journal: Hawaii Med J; 2000 Aug; 59(8):323-7, 341. PubMed ID: 11006650.
    Abstract:
    Neural tube defects (NTDs) in Hawaii between 1986 and 1997 were examined using data from a statewide birth defects surveillance system. The prevalence increased significantly over the twelve-year period. NTD prevalence did not appear to vary by place of residence. The relationship of type of defect, maternal age, and infant/fetus sex was similar to that reported in the literature.
