- 发育儿科 发育儿科
- 公共卫生 公共卫生
背景情况:
- 关于分娩方式和神经发育障碍,如自闭症谱系障碍 (ASD) 和智力障碍 (ID) 的流行病学研究产生了不一致的结果.
- 剖腹产 (剖腹产) 率及其与ASD/ID风险的关联需要进一步调查,特别是考虑到区域差异.
研究的目的:
- 检查与美国不同地区的初级和重复剖腹产相关的ASD和/或ID风险.
- 探索剖腹产率的区域差异及其与神经发育障碍可能性的相关性.
主要方法:
- 利用了CDC自闭症和发育障碍监测网络的数据,用于偶数年 (2000-2016) 患有ASD和/或ID的8岁儿童.
- 匹配了来自国家卫生统计中心的病例组 (仅ASD,ASD+ID,仅ID) 和大型比较出生队列 (N=1,456,914).
- 用美国地区分层调整的模型来分析神经发育障碍的剖腹产风险.
主要成果:
- 整体模型表明,与初级和重复剖腹产相关的残疾 (ASD和/或ID) 几率增加.

Autism Spectrum Disorder
72
Autism spectrum disorder (ASD) is a neurodevelopmental condition marked by persistent deficits in social communication and interaction alongside restrictive and repetitive behaviors or interests. ASD is sometimes accompanied by intellectual impairment.
These core symptoms manifest differently among individuals, ranging from mild to severe. The disorder's complexity extends beyond its clinical presentation, encompassing a diverse range of biological, cognitive, and sociocultural influences.

Intellectual Disability
44
Intellectual disability (ID) is a neurodevelopmental condition characterized by deficits in intellectual and adaptive functioning that manifest during the developmental period. This condition encompasses challenges in reasoning, memory, problem-solving, and learning, accompanied by impairments in everyday life skills, such as communication, self-care, and social interactions. Intellectual disability affects approximately 1% of the population in the United States, impacting an estimated 5...

Biological Influences on Intelligence
74
Intelligence is often thought to be linked to brain size, but the relationship is more complex than that. While brain size does correlate modestly with some abilities, like verbal skills, the connection is weaker for others, such as spatial reasoning. Other factors, like brain structure, also play crucial roles. For instance, despite Einstein's smaller-than-average brain, his parietal cortex, which is involved in spatial reasoning, was 15% wider, suggesting that neural density might matter...

Environmental Influences on Intelligence
219
Despite the strong genetic influence on traits like intelligence, environmental factors significantly shape outcomes. For example, while over 90% of height variation is due to genetic differences, environmental factors such as nutrition also have a notable impact. Similarly, for intelligence, changes in a child's surroundings can significantly alter their IQ. Research shows that enriched environments boost children's academic success and help them develop key cognitive skills. Children...

Language and Cognition
332
Language serves as a bridge between ideas and communication, influencing how individuals perceive and interact with the world. Psychologists have long debated whether language shapes thought or vice versa. This discussion gained grip with Edward Sapir and Benjamin Lee Whorf in the 1940s, who proposed that language determines thought, a concept known as linguistic determinism. They suggested that the vocabulary and structure of a language influence how its speakers think and perceive reality.

Biological Causes of Schizophrenia
46
Schizophrenia, a severe psychiatric disorder, arises from a complex interplay of biological factors, including genetic predisposition, structural brain abnormalities, neurotransmitter dysregulation, and developmental irregularities. These factors collectively contribute to the onset and progression of the disorder, which typically manifests in late adolescence or early adulthood.

The genetic basis of schizophrenia is strongly supported by family and twin...
