Abbreviations: NS, not significant; MM, myelomeningocele; Cauc Amer, Caucasian American; Mex Amer, Mexican American.

^a Mex Amer controls N = 92, Cauc Amer controls N = 93, Combine controls N = 185. The minor allele (10 bp del, ATTTCTCACC) shows increased risk for some MM subpopulations (Bold).

^b Cauc Amer = Caucasian American; Mex Amer = Mexican American.
