Altered White Matter Connectivity in Children with Prenatal Marijuana Exposure
Background: The potential health outcomes of cannabis use during pregnancy are currently not well-known. Several studies have shown an association between prenatal marijuana exposure (PME) and adverse neonatal outcomes. Specifically, cannabis use has been associated with an increased risk of cognitive deficits and neuropsychiatric disease.

Mind the Litter: The Critical Role of Intralitter Variables in Reproductive and Developmental Toxicology Research. [PDF]
ABSTRACT Background Animal models remain essential for understanding developmental toxicology, providing insights into how in utero exposures affect fetal and placental outcomes. Litter‐bearing species are widely used due to their efficiency and reproducibility, but conventional approaches often summarize outcomes at the litter level, masking ...

The Effects of Prenatal Alcohol and Marijuana Exposure: Disturbances in Neonatal Sleep Cycling and Arousal [PDF]
Neonatal EEG and sleep findings are presented from a longitudinal study of the effects of maternal alcohol and marijuana use during pregnancy. Infant outcome has been examined relative to the trimester(s) of pregnancy during which use occurred. Disturbances in sleep cycling, motility, and arousals were noted that were both substance and trimester ...
