Nonsyndromic cleft of lip with or without palate ( NSCL/P ) is one of the most common congenital birth defects in the maxillofacial region and it is related to genetic factors and environment .Folic acid deficiency , metabolic disorder and the genetic polymorphisms of key metabolic enzymes may be the important factors contributing to NSCL /P .Maternal folic acid intake may reduce the risk of non syndrome cleft lip and palate .This article will review the relationship among the metabolism of folic acid , the genetic polymorphisms of key enzymes in folate metabolism and NSCL /P .

Objective To investigate the effect of methylprednisolone pulse therapy on spinal nerve functions in patients with acute spinal cord injury (ASCI) and evaluate its safety. Methods 200 patients with ASCI treated in our hospital from January 2010 to December 2016 were selected and were randomly divided into two groups,with 100 cases each group. The patients in control group were treated with routine basic treatment while patients in the study group were treated with methylprednisolone pulse therapy. On the basis of the American spinal cord injury Society scoring criteria (ASIA), the neurological functional recovery scores were performed were scored before and 6 weeks after treatment between the two groups and the adverse reactions were recorded. Results The scores of sensory and motor function of the patients in the two groups were higher than those before the treatment and there was statistical difference (P<0.05), and the scores in the study group was significantly higher than those in the control group, and the difference between the two grouPs was statistically significant (P<0.05). The incidence of adverse reactions in the study group (25.00％) was significantly higher than that in the control group (10.00％), and the difference was statistically significant (P<0.05). The incidence of lung infection and gastrointestinal reaction in the study group were significantly higher than those in the control group and there were statistical difference (P<0.05). Conclusion Methylprednisolone pulse therapy has significant effect on the recovery of neurological function in patients with ASCI, but the incidence of adverse reactions is high, so it is necessary to strengthen the monitoring and intervention in clinic.
