Texas Neural Tube Defect Project Archives
1980 - 2003
The Texas Neural Tube Defect Archives are a collection of historical documents regarding the
study of neural tube defects (NTDs) in Texas during the Texas Neural Tube Defect Project (TNTDP). Gathered by the Texas Birth
Defect Epidemiology and Surveillance Branch (BDES) of the Texas Department of State Health Services, the collection covers the
1991 Brownsville anencephaly cluster and the 8-year federally-funded project that both investigated risk factors for neural tube defects
and provided counseling and folic acid supplements to mothers to help prevent recurrent NTD cases.
(See Vol. 16, Issue 1, Texas Birth Defects Monitor, June 2000.)

Materials are written in English and Spanish.

Provenance
The Texas Neural Tube Defect Project Archives were created by the Texas Birth Defect Epidemiology and Surveillance Branch of the
Texas Department of State Health Services during the Texas Neural Tube Defect project. Materials were donated to the Briscoe Library
at the UT Health Science Center San Antonio in July 2011.
Administrative History Note
In April 1991, three babies with anencephaly were born in a Brownsville, Texas, hospital within 36 hours. The babies died soon after birth. When these cases occurred in Cameron County, little was known about what causes NTDs like anencephaly. It was known that, in the United States, NTDs are most common among Hispanics and least common in African Americans. The birth defects are also more common in families with low incomes. Community members thought the birth defect problems could be related to pollution from pesticide use and assembly plant industries along the Mexico/U.S. border. Doctors in the Texas Department of Health (today’s Texas Department of State Health Services [DSHS]) asked epidemiologists from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) in Atlanta, Georgia, to help them look into the problem.
In response to this cluster and the need for better data, and in recognition of the enormous resources routinely put forth by DSHS in the investigation of birth defect clusters, the Texas State Legislature passed the Texas Birth Defects Act in 1993. Out of this statute, the Texas Birth Defects Registry was created to actively identify children born with birth defects. At about the same time, the Texas Neural Tube Defects Project (TNTDP) was initiated by TDH and collaborators. This seven-year study, funded in large part by the CDC, focused on surveillance, research and recurrence prevention in Texas counties along the border with Mexico. Although the TNTDP wrapped up data collection in 2000, scientific research into the possible causes of NTDs continues to be published by the Texas Department of State Health Services.
The Texas Neural Tube Defects Archives chronicle this effort from the 1980s to 2003, and has now been donated to the Briscoe Library at the UT Health Science Center San Antonio. It is hoped that this will allow and encourage researchers to contribute to better understanding this unique public health event and the efforts that it stimulated.

Scope and Contents
The collection consists of 26 boxes in four parts. The first three parts of the collection represent the three phases of the border NTD
effort. Each part is grouped around primary subjects that fall into the categories of Project and Program Description
(proposals, protocols, grant applications); Finances (grants, funding requests, budgets); Results (reports, recommendations,
data analysis); Data Gathering (surveys, tools and procedures, personnel, in-the-field activities); Press and Media;
Promotional and Presentation Material (brochures, pamphlets, visual aids [“slide shows”]); and Meetings (conferences, town
meetings, monthly organization meetings).
Part Four consists of remaining material including photographs, newspaper articles, and personal correspondences, arranged
chronologically.
Arrangement of Collection
The collection is organized in 26 boxes in 4 series as follows:
- Series 1: Background and Investigation
- Series 2: Neural Tube Defect Project
- Series 3: Statewide Neural Tube Defect Recurrence Prevention Program and Texas Neural Tube Defect Project
- Series 4: Newspapers, Personal Correspondences, Audio and Visual Records, Photographs
Access Restrictions
The collection is open for research use. Materials may be viewed in the reading room of the P. I. Nixon Medical Historical Library, located on the 5th floor of the Briscoe Library at the University of Texas Health Science Center at San Antonio. Access to photographs and letters from parents is restricted as protected health information.
Physical Access
Some materials are in audiovisual formats that may need to be converted to a digital format prior to use.
Use Restrictions
Copyright is retained by the authors of items in these papers, or their descendants, as stipulated by United States copyright law. Those granted access to these materials may also make single copies in lieu of note taking.
