Susceptibility to Heart Defects in Down Syndrome Is Associated with Single Nucleotide Polymorphisms in HAS 21 Interferon Receptor Cluster and VEGFA Genes

Background: Congenital heart defects (CHDs) are present in about 40–60% of newborns with Down syndrome (DS). Patients with DS can also develop acquired cardiac disorders.
