Mechanisms underlying effects of physical factors on twin births are unclear. The present work studied an association between monthly and yearly multiple birth rates (MBRs) in the Novosibirsk region, south-west Siberia, in relation to solar...
Clinical and genetic analysis of a compound heterozygous mutation in the thyroglobulin gene in a Chinese twin family with congenital goiter and hypothyroidism [0.03%]
