Methodologic issues in epidemiologic studies of congenital microcephaly.

Alan Leviton1, Lewis B Holmes, Elizabeth N Allred, Juan Vargas.   

Abstract

In this methodological paper, we explore a number of issues that pose problems for those who seek the antecedents of congenital microcephaly. We pay particular attention to three concerns: Who is a case? How should cases be classified? To whom should cases be compared?
