Robert J. Berry,Zhu Li,J D Erickson,Song Li,Cynthia A. Moore,Hong Wang,Joseph Mulinare,Ping Zhao,Lee-Yang C. Wong,Jacqueline Gindler,Shi-xin Hong,Adolfo Correa +11 more
TL;DR: Evaluated the outcomes of pregnancy in women who were asked to take a pill containing 400 μg of folic acid alone daily from the time of their premarital examination until the end of their first trimester of pregnancy, and identified 102 and 173 women with neural-tube defects.
Journal ArticleDOI
Folate and DNA Methylation: A Review of Molecular Mechanisms and the Evidence for Folate's Role
TL;DR: The role of DNA methylation in normal genome function, how it can be altered, and the evidence of the role of folate/folic acid in these processes are highlighted.

Prevention of Neural-Tube Defects With Folic Acid in China
Robert J. Berry,Zhu Li,J. David Erickson,Song Li,Cynthia A. Moore,Hong Wang,Joseph Mulinare,Ping Zhao,Lee-Yang C. Wong,Jacqueline Gindler,Shi-xin Hong,Adolfo Correa +11 more
TL;DR: Periconceptional intake of 400 microg of folic acid daily can reduce the risk of neural-tube defects in areas with high rates of these defects and in areas of China with low rates.
Folate and DNA Methylation: A Review of Molecular Mechanisms and the Evidence
TL;DR: The role of folate in normal genome function, how it can be altered, and the evidence of the role of folic acid in these processes is discussed in this article. But, the authors do not consider folate intake as a biomarker for folate status and as a mechanistic link to developmental disorders.
Journal ArticleDOI
Folic Acid Food Fortification—Its History, Effect, Concerns, and Future Directions
TL;DR: The history, effect, concerns, and future directions of folic acid food fortification programs are highlighted.
