An investigation of space and space-time clustering in a large sample of infants with neural tube defects born in Cardiff.

C J Roberts, K M Laurence, S Lloyd.   

Abstract

Altogether 406 infants with neural tube defects born in Cardiff between 1956-71 were investigated for evidence of space-time clustering and 100 similarly affected infants, together with matched controls born in Cardiff between 1964-66 were investigated for evidence of spatial clustering. No evidence of excessive prevalence in either dimension was observed.
