Relationship Between the Exposure of Glucocorticoids During Pregnancy and Orofacial Cleft Development Clinical Trial
Official title:
Risk Association of Orofacial Cleft and Glucocorticoids Exposure During Pregnancy: a Meta-analysis
Glucocorticoids are drugs that have many effects on body metabolism, raise sugar level in the blood, and reduce inflammation. By applying a statistical technique for combining the findings from a systematic literature review (meta analysis), researchers want to learn more about the relationship of the risk to develop a separation in the roof of the mouth (cleft palate) in newborns and contact with glucocorticoids during pregnancy.
