Genetic Variants in Nicotinamide Adenine Dinucleotide (NAD) Synthesis Pathway
- Conditions
- Vacterl AssociationCongenital Malformation
- Registration Number
- NCT03799705
- Lead Sponsor
- Mayo Clinic
- Brief Summary
Researchers are trying to identify versions of genes as well as factors in subjects blood associated with certain types of congenital malformations(CMs). This study will help the researchers to better understand family traits that contribute to CMs.
