| Factor | frequencies of MTHFR gene 677 TT genotype in CHD children |
| Description | The frequency of the MTHFR gene 677 TT polymorphism in offspring with ASD was significantly higher than that in the non-CHD controls (P<0.05). |
| Biomarker | NA |
| Classification | D1 (molecular factor - DNA) |
| Association | |

| Application | risk assessment |
| Objective | offspring CHD risk |

| OR | 2.89 |
| Conclusion | A significant interaction was found between the homozygous 677 T/T MTHFR gene in children and the maternal occupational status and level of drug exposure during gestation. Avoiding or reducing the exposure of the risk factors mentioned above, strengthening pre-pregnancy checkups and guidance might help to reduce the risk of CHD |
