Overview

Risk factors in the development of spina bifida may be occupational, environmental, genetic, and viral. Common maternal nutrition risk factors in the development of spina bifida include: Alcohol use, caffeine use, low folate intake, low dietary quality, elevated glycaemic load or index, low methionine intake, low serum choline level, low serum vitamin B12 level, low vitamin C level, low zinc intake, smoking, hyperthermia, low socio-economic status, maternal infections and illnesses, pregestational insulin-dependent diabetes, pregestational obesity, psychosocial stress and valproic acid use. Environmental factors in the development of spina bifida include: Ambient air pollution, disinfectant by-products in drinking water, indoor air pollution, nitrate-related compounds, organic solvents, pesticides and polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons.
