Investigating the association between maternal infection and inflammation and child autistic traits in a large population based cohort study

2025-09-12

Abstract excerpt

<h4>Objective</h4> Maternal immune activation during pregnancy has been proposed as a mechanism linking prenatal inflammatory exposures to autism pathogenesis. While preclinical and epidemiological studies suggest a role for maternal inflammation and infection, findings in population-based cohorts are inconsistent. This study examined the associations between multiple prenatal inflammatory exposures and autistic...
