Overview

Literature synthesis reveals multiple maternal and environmental risk factors for autism spectrum disorder in offspring, highlighting critical windows in prenatal neurodevelopment.

Key Points

  • Maternal exposure to pesticides, ozone pollution, and preeclampsia correlates with autism spectrum disorder, while early brain overgrowth marks altered fetal development.
  • Elevated risk of autism spectrum disorder links to maternal immune activation and autoantibodies, alongside birth events like maternal hemorrhage and forceps intervention.
  • Synthesis of gestational insults highlights how atypical neurodevelopment and immune responses during pregnancy may jointly compound offspring vulnerability to autism spectrum disorder.
