The known risk factors for developing conotruncal heart defects are as follows: CHD in siblings, genetic chromosomal abnormalities, paternal age &gt;30 years, high parity, low birth weight, prematurity, and maternal diabetes.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec><jats:sec id=\"S1047951116000202_abs2\" sec-type=\"general\"><jats:title>Objective<\/jats:title><jats:p>The aim of this study was to characterise conotruncal heart defects, birth prevalence, mortality, and morbidity in the population of southern Israel, of whom 75% are Jewish and the rest are mostly Bedouin Arabs.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec><jats:sec id=\"S1047951116000202_abs3\" sec-type=\"methods\"><jats:title>Methods<\/jats:title><jats:p>The data were obtained from Soroka University Medical Center database of births and newborns.

The birth prevalence per 10,000 live births of tetralogy of Fallot, transposition of the great arteries, and truncus arteriosus was 9.5, 5, and 1.8, respectively. In the multivariate analysis, Bedouin descent (adjusted odds ratio 2.40, p&lt;0.001), maternal age &gt;35 years (1.66, p=0.004), and siblings with congenital heart defects (1.98, p=0.005) were associated with tetralogy of Fallot, and Bedouin descent (1.61, p=0.05), siblings with congenital heart defects (2.19, p=0.004), and diabetes mellitus (7.15, p&lt;0.001) were associated with transposition of the great arteries. In a univariate analysis, Bedouin descent (p=0.004) and congenital heart defects in siblings (p&lt;0.001) were associated with truncus arteriosus.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec><jats:sec id=\"S1047951116000202_abs5\" sec-type=\"conclusion\"><jats:title>Conclusion<\/jats:title><jats:p>We observed higher birth prevalence of conotruncal heart defects compared with the birth prevalence reported worldwide, specifically among the Bedouins, a population characterised with high consanguinity rate. Therefore, genetic counselling and early fetal echocardiograms should be encouraged, especially in high consanguinity rate populations. Naturally, further educational efforts are needed in order to decrease consanguinity and its related consequences.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec>","DOI":"10.1017\/s1047951116000202","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2016,3,16]],"date-time":"2016-03-16T09:27:22Z","timestamp":1458120442000},"page":"109-116","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1017\/policypage","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":9,"title":["Elevated birth prevalence of conotruncal heart defects in a population with high consanguinity rate"],"prefix":"10.1017","volume":"27","author":[{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-6630-765X","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Moshe","family":"Stavsky","sequence":"first","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Renana","family":"Robinson","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Maayan Yitshak","family":"Sade","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Hanah","family":"Krymko","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Eli","family":"Zalstein","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Viktorya","family":"Ioffe","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Victor","family":"Novack","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Aviva","family":"Levitas","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]}],"member":"56","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2016,3,16]]},"reference":[{"key":"S1047951116000202_ref37","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1007\/s00246-002-9402-5"},{"key":"S1047951116000202_ref13","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1007\/BF00211434"},{"key":"S1047951116000202_ref20","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/j.jpeds.2009.11.062"},{"key":"S1047951116000202_ref28","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/j.ahj.2014.07.030"},{"key":"S1047951116000202_ref27","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/j.ahj.2008.10.017"},{"key":"S1047951116000202_ref9","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1002\/ar.a.20367"},{"key":"S1047951116000202_ref25","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1007\/978-90-481-9485-8_20"},{"key":"S1047951116000202_ref35","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1161\/JAHA.113.000064"},{"key":"S1047951116000202_ref42","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1097\/00125817-200101000-00004"},{"key":"S1047951116000202_ref36","first-page":"312","article-title":"Chromosome abnormalities and congenital heart diseases: a retrospective on 49 cases","volume":"41","author":"Zhang","year":"2010","journal-title":"Sichuan Da Xue Xue Bao Yi Xue Ban"},{"key":"S1047951116000202_ref5","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1002\/ajmg.a.34130"},{"key":"S1047951116000202_ref26","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1002\/bdra.23111"},{"key":"S1047951116000202_ref29","first-page":"12","article-title":"The impact of consanguinity worldwide","volume":"1","author":"Jaber","year":"1998","journal-title":"Community Genet"},{"key":"S1047951116000202_ref7","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","unstructured":"Mills JL , Troendle J , Conley MR , et al.
