Breastfeeding and neurodevelopment in infants with prenatal alcohol exposure

Pediatric Research, 2023
Few studies have evaluated the differential benefits of breastfeeding on infant neurodevelopment at varying levels of prenatal alcohol exposure (PAE). This study examined whether the association between breastfeeding and neurodevelopment is modified by prenatal drinking pattern.The study included 385 infants from Ukraine born to women prospectively ...

Prenatal Alcohol Exposure and Language Development

Alcoholism: Clinical and Experimental Research, 1990
The effects of fetal alcohol exposure on language and speech acquisition were investigated in a cohort of socioeconomically disadvantaged urban children. Language development was assessed by instruments derived from the Expressive and Receptive Scales of the Sequenced Inventory of Communication Development (SICD) at 1, 2, and 3 years, and by indices ...

Biomarkers for the Detection of Prenatal Alcohol Exposure: A Review

Alcoholism: Clinical and Experimental Research, 2017
Alcohol exposure during pregnancy can cause adverse effects to the fetus, because it interferes with fetal development, leading to later physical and mental impairment. The most common clinical tool to determine fetal alcohol exposure is maternal self‐reporting. However, a more objective and useful method is based on the use of biomarkers in biological

Comparison of Motor Delays in Young Children With Fetal Alcohol Syndrome to Those With Prenatal Alcohol Exposure and With No Prenatal Alcohol Exposure

Alcoholism: Clinical and Experimental Research, 2006
Background: Researchers are increasingly considering the importance of motor functioning of children with fetal alcohol spectrum disorder (FASD). The purpose of this study was to assess the motor development of young children with fetal alcohol syndrome (FAS) to determine the presence and degree of delay in their motor skills and to compare their ...

Communication effects of prenatal alcohol exposure

Journal of Communication Disorders, 1992
This paper surveys the literature on prenatal alcohol exposure. The focus is on studies of speech, language, and communication skills evidenced by children diagnosed with fetal alcohol syndrome and fetal alcohol effects. Concomitant physical, behavioral, intellectual, and learning patterns are reviewed.

THE NEURODEVELOPMENTAL CONSEQUENCES OF PRENATAL ALCOHOL EXPOSURE

Advances in Neonatal Care, 2005
During pregnancy, ingestion of alcohol, a known teratogen, can cause harm to the fetus. Prenatal alcohol exposure is one of the leading causes of birth defects, developmental disorders, and mental retardation in children. The fetal central nervous system is particularly vulnerable to alcohol; this vulnerability contributes to many of the long-term ...

Immunity and Prenatal Alcohol Exposure

1998
Alcohol has been recognized as a teratogen for over 150 years.1 In 1968, a constellation of birth defects which would become known as the Fetal Alcohol Syndrome (FAS) was described in France,2 and confirmed shortly thereafter in the United States.3 An explosion of case reports ensued, and a number of clinical and animal investigations were initiated.4 ...

Cortical miscommunication after prenatal exposure to alcohol

Experimental Brain Research, 2016
We report on the effects of prenatal alcohol exposure on resting-state brain activity as measured by magnetoencephalography (MEG). We studied 37 subjects diagnosed with fetal alcohol spectrum disorder in one of three categories: fetal alcohol syndrome, partial fetal alcohol syndrome, and alcohol-related neurodevelopmental disorder.

Infant Stress Reactivity and Prenatal Alcohol Exposure

Alcoholism: Clinical and Experimental Research, 2006
Background: Animal studies have shown that prenatal alcohol exposure (PAE) is linked to alterations in the stress response systems. To date, little is known about the impact of PAE on stress systems in human infants. The current study examined PAE effects on the stress response, as evidenced by the activation of the limbic–hypothalamic–pituitary ...
