Prenatal Maternal Stress and the Risk of Asthma in Children
Emerging evidence indicate that maternal prenatal stress (MPS) can result in a range of long-term adverse effects in the offspring. The underlying mechanism of MPS is not fully understood. However, its complexity is emphasized by the number of purportedly involved pathways namely, placental deregulated metabolism of maternal steroids, impaired maturation of fetal HPA axis, imbalanced efflux of ...
متن کاملPrenatal stress and childhood asthma risk: taking a broader view.
We now know that asthma risk begins in utero during rapid lung morphogenesis, when the developing fetus is particularly vulnerable to toxic insults due to immature immune, neuroendocrine and antioxidant defences. A meta-analysis published in a recent issue of the European Respiratory Journal (ERJ) [1] builds on substantial evidence highlighting psychological stress as a critical toxic exposure ...
متن کاملPrenatal cortisol, prematurity and low birthweight.
Three hundred depressed pregnant women were recruited at approximately 20 weeks gestation. They were then divided by a median split into high and low urinary cortisol level groups. The high cortisol group had higher CES-D depression scores and higher inhibition (BIS) scores prenatally. Their fetuses had smaller head circumference, abdominal circumference, biparietal diameter and fetal weight. T...
متن کاملPrenatal cocaine exposure and prematurity: neurodevelopmental growth.
The consequences of prematurity and prenatal cocaine exposure on early neurobehavior and physical growth were examined longitudinally in a sample of 20 cocaine-exposed and 20 non-exposed preterm neonates. The magnitude of the difference in physical growth acceleration related to prenatal cocaine exposure increased with increasing birth gestational age, whereas growth rate differences in irritab...
متن کاملIncreased Risk of Asthma in Children with ADHD: Role of Prematurity and Maternal Stress during Pregnancy.
OBJECTIVE ADHD and asthma are prevalent conditions in childhood, with complex pathophysiology involving genetic-environmental interplay. The study objective is to examine the prevalence of asthma in our ADHD population and explore factors that may increase the risk of developing asthma in children with ADHD. METHODS We retrospectively analyzed the presence of maternal stress during pregnancy ...
