研究发现,与儿子自闭症风险增加有关的孕妇的BPA水平较高。 Study finds higher BPA levels in pregnant women linked to increased autism risk in sons.
由Florey神经科学和心理健康研究所牵头进行的一项研究表明,孕妇的BPA水平较高与儿子患自闭症的风险增加有关。 A study led by The Florey Institute of Neuroscience and Mental Health reveals that higher BPA levels in pregnant women are linked to an increased risk of autism in their sons. 这项研究分析了两个大的出生组群,发现对胎儿男性大脑发育至关重要的低芳香酶水平的男孩,如果出生于BPA水平较高的母亲,更有可能有自闭症症状或经核实的诊断。 The research, analyzing two large birth cohorts, found that boys with lower aromatase levels, crucial for fetal male brain development, were more likely to have autism symptoms or a verified diagnosis if born to mothers with higher BPA levels. 该研究确定了连接自闭症和BPA的生物途径,告知监管者更新关于怀孕和早年接触化学品的安全建议。 The study identified a biological pathway connecting autism and BPA, informing regulators to update safety recommendations for chemical exposure during pregnancy and early life.
