Prenatal Exposure to Ambient Heat and Autism in California, USA: A Distributed Lag Analysis of Weekly Gestational Windows

Extreme heat is an increasing environmental health concern, yet its role in neurodevelopmental outcomes remains incompletely understood. Pregnancy represents a period of heightened vulnerability to environmental stressors, and heat-related physiological disruptions may influence fetal brain development. We examined a...

Associations between Prenatal Exposure to Perchlorate, Thiocyanate, and Nitrate and Child Neurodevelopment in the MARBLES Study

Associations between prenatal exposure to perchlorate, thiocyanate, and nitrate and autism spectrum disorder (ASD) remain largely unexplored. We investigated these associations in the MARBLES cohort, a prospective cohort with an elevated familial likelihood of ASD. A total of 310 mothers provided 1916 urine samples dur...

Prenatal exposure to organophosphate esters and child cognitive development in the MARBLES prospective cohort.

It was observed that associations differed by age at assessment, highlighting the importance of repeated outcome measurements, and larger studies in general-population cohorts with repeated exposure measurements throughout pregnancy are warranted.

Prenatal exposure to a mixture of non-persistent endocrine-disrupting chemicals and attention and hyperactivity symptoms in children in the ECHO cohort.

Findings on prenatal EDC mixture exposure and ADHD symptoms were not robust to full adjustment, and future research that can delineate factors such as windows of vulnerability and trajectories of ADHD-related symptoms may help clarify mixed findings in the literature.

Fetal exposure to persistent organic pollutants and childhood autism risk.

Direct fetal and early-life measures of POPs indicate the third trimester as a potential high-risk biological window for POPs exposures that increase autism risk, particularly in males.

Prenatal Organophosphate Exposure and Autism-Related Traits in Children.

Prenatal OP exposure was not associated with autism-related traits in childhood and results were consistent across sex-stratified models, secondary analyses using quantile and logistic regressions, various sensitivity analyses, and after adjustments for dietary confounders.
