根据北欧的一项研究,与5岁以下儿童经改变的大脑发育有关的产前PFAS接触率较高,与5岁前儿童的大脑发育变化有关。 Higher prenatal PFAS exposure linked to altered brain development in children by age five, per a Nordic study.

一项新的研究将怀孕期间较高的产妇PFAS水平与儿童脑结构和功能在5岁前的变化联系起来,发现与主要区域的联系,如骨架、皮质叶、皮质叶和皮下脑膜,以及大脑连通性的变化。 A new study links higher maternal PFAS levels during pregnancy to changes in children’s brain structure and function by age five, finding associations with key regions like the corpus callosum, occipital lobe, and hypothalamus, as well as altered brain connectivity. 根据芬兰和瑞典51名孕妇的研究, 显示某些PFAS类型 - - 特别是含有碳酸组的类型 - - 具有更强的效果. The research, based on 51 pregnant women in Finland and Sweden, shows certain PFAS types—especially those with carboxylic acid groups—had stronger effects. 虽然据知PFAS跨越胎盘和血脑屏障,但仍不清楚所观察到的变化是否有害、有益或中性。 While PFAS are known to cross the placenta and blood-brain barrier, it remains unclear if the observed changes are harmful, beneficial, or neutral. 需要进一步研究以了解长期影响。 Further research is needed to understand long-term impacts.
