Is MTHFD1 polymorphism rs 2236225 (c.1958G>A) associated with the susceptibility of NSCL/P? A systematic review and meta-analysis

TL;DR: The assessment suggested there was no significant association between the MTHFD1 polymorphism rs 2236225 (c.1958G>A) and the susceptibility to NSCL/P and further investigations using a large sample size and a more advanced technique should be adopted to reach a more precise conclusion.
