Summary

Our study looks at the interaction of a common mutation in the MTHFR gene and the risk of developing higher homocysteine levels after nitrous oxide (N2O) anesthesia.

Specifically, we want to test the hypothesis that healthy patients carrying the MTHFR 677C\>T haplotype develop abnormal homocysteine levels after nitrous oxide anesthesia.
