    The homozygotes of rs1052536 TT were associated with an increased risk for NTDs than CC, and variants of rs1052536 T were associated with an increased risk of Neural Tube Defects. The stratified analysis showed that TT genotype of rs1052536 increased the risk of anencephaly and the T allele significantly increased the risk of cranial Neural Tube Defects.
