Prenatal Organophosphorus Pesticide Exposure and Child Neurodevelopment at 24 Months: An Analysis of Four Birth Cohorts
BACKGROUND Organophosphorus pesticides (OPs) are used in agriculture worldwide. Residential use was common in the United States before 2001. OBJECTIVES We conducted a pooled analysis of four birth cohorts (children's centers; n = 936) to evaluate associations of prenatal exposure to OPs with child development at 24 months. METHODS Using general linear models, we computed site-specific and p...
متن کاملOrganophosphate Pesticide Exposure and Neurodevelopment in Young Mexican-American Children
BACKGROUND Organophosphate (OP) pesticides are widely used in agriculture and homes. Animal studies suggest that even moderate doses are neurodevelopmental toxicants, but there are few studies in humans. OBJECTIVES We investigated the relationship of prenatal and child OP urinary metabolite levels with children's neurodevelopment. METHODS Participating children were from a longitudinal birt...
متن کاملEnvironmental Tobacco Smoke Exposure during Pregnancy and Child Neurodevelopment
The developing fetus is especially vulnerable to environmental toxicants, including tobacco constituents. The aim of this study was to assess the impact of environmental tobacco smoke (ETS) exposure during pregnancy on child neurodevelopment within the first two years of life. The study population consisted of 461 non-smoking pregnant women (saliva cotinine level <10 ng/mL). Maternal passive sm...
متن کاملMultisensory Integration and Child Neurodevelopment
A considerable number of cognitive processes depend on the integration of multisensory information. The brain integrates this information, providing a complete representation of our surrounding world and giving us the ability to react optimally to the environment. Infancy is a period of great changes in brain structure and function that are reflected by the increase of processing capacities of ...
متن کاملOrganophosphate pesticide exposure, PON1, and neurodevelopment in school-age children from the CHAMACOS study.
INTRODUCTION Organophosphate (OP) pesticides remain widely used in agriculture. Previously, we reported that PON1 genotype was directly associated with neurodevelopment at age two, and that PON1 genotype may increase susceptibility to OP exposure. OBJECTIVES We examined the relationships of maternal and child PON1 genotype and enzyme activity levels and neurodevelopment at school age and exam...
