## Abstract Different lines of evidence indicate that methylenetetrahydrofolate reductase (__MTHFR__) functional gene polymorphisms, causative in aberrant folate–homocysteine metabolism, are associated with increased vulnerability to several heritable developmental disorders. Opposing views are exp

## Abstract ## Objectives/Hypothesis: To investigate the recently reported association of the C677T polymorphism in the methylenetetrahydrofolate reductase (MTHFR) gene with sudden sensorineural hearing loss (SSNHL), we analyzed data from a community‐based Japanese population. ## Study Design: N
## Abstract We performed a case‐control study to examine the relationship between __MTHFR C677T__ gene polymorphism (__MTHFR677C/T__) and gastric cancer susceptibility in at‐risk populations in central Italy. To explore genomic DNA hypomethylation as a potential etiologic mechanism, this phenomenon
The present chapter aims to illustrate some key concepts of genetic association studies, with an emphasis on meta -analysis as a powerful study design to summarize quantitatively the results of the scientifi c literature. Additionally, a systematic review of the published meta -analyses of the effec
## Abstract Essential tremor (ET) is a most common human movement disorder of unknown etiology. Previous reports have shown that the C677T polymorphism of methylenetetrahydrofolate reductase gene has been associated with neurodegenerative disorders. To investigate the role of methylenetetrahydrofol
