| Résumé : | [BDSP. Notice produite par INIST-CNRS s3ODtR0x. Diffusion soumise à autorisation]. The International Clearinghouse for Birth Defects Surveillance and Research, formerly known as International Clearinghouse of Birth Defects Monitoring Systems, consists of 40 registries worldwide that collaborate in monitoring 40 types of birth defects. Clearinghouse activities include the sharing and joint monitoring of birth defect data, epidemiologic and public health research, and capacity building, with the goal of reducing disease and promoting healthy birth outcomes through primary prevention. We discuss 3 of these activities : the collaborative assessment of the potential terato-genicity of first-trimester use of medications (the MADRE project), an example of the intersection of surveillance and research ; the international databases of people with orofacial clefts, an example of the evolution from surveillance to outcome research ; and the study of genetic polymorphisms, an example of collaboration in public health genetics. |
