Zilber School of Public Health, lead author. “What we are seeing is that some disorders on the autism spectrum, more than others, may be influenced by a factor such as whether a mother smokes during pregnancy.” Smoking is still common in the US despite its well-known effects on families and children. Up to 13% of mothers who had children in the study smoked during pregnancy. “The study doesn’t say for certain that smoking is a risk factor for autism,” Kalkbrenner said. “But it does say that if there is an association, it’s between smoking and certi types of autism.” The study implicasted the disorders on the autism spectrum scale that are less severe and allow child to high-function. Environmental studies sponsored by the CDC will continue. “The CDC recently released data indicating that one in 88 children has an autism spectrum disorder, making such environmental studies even more timely,” explained Kalkbrenner. Autism is difficult to study because the broad spectrum of conditions and the interplay of genetics and environment are so complex. No single study can explain the causes. “The goal of this work is to help provide a piece of the puzzle. And in this we were successful,” concluded Kalkbrenner.

Nova opasnost za dijeteJoš jedan dobar razlog da trudnice odbace cigarete Najveći rizici pušenja tijekom trudnoće su već poznati - povećavaju se rizici od pobačaja, rođenja mrtvorođenčeta i prijevremenog poroda. Nova je studija pokazala i da trudnice koje puše imaju veće šanse imati dijete s visoko funkcionalnim autizmom.'Već dugo je poznato da je autizam termin za široki spektar poremećaja s lošijim socijalnim i komunikacijskim vještinama', kaže voditeljica istraživanja, profesorica Amy Kalkbrenner sa Sveučilišta Wisconsin-Milwaukee. 'Vidjeli smo da neki poremećaji iz autističnog spektra, više od drugih, mogu biti potaknuti faktorima poput toga puši li majka tijekom trudnoće.' Profesorica Kalkbrenner i njezine kolege proučavali su podatke na stotinama tisuća djece iz 11 zemalja. Otkrili su da je 13 posto majki, čijoj su djeci dijagnosticirani poremećaji iz autističnog spektra do osme godine, pušile u trudnoći. Ta su djeca imala više šanse imati visoko funkcionalni autizam, koji ima manje ozbiljan utjecaj, odnosno kod kojega donekle postoji sposobnost govora, čitanja i pisanja. 'Studija ne pokazuje da je pušenje sa sigurnošću faktor koji uzorkuje autizam', kažem Kalkbrenner. 'Ali nam govori da postoji veza između pušenja i određenih tipova autizma.' Ostali rizici pušenja tijekom trudnoće već su poznati. Svaki put kada trudna žena puši, smanjuje opskrbu kisika kroz placentu koja je nužna za zdravi rast i razvoj bebe. Loša navika povećava rizik od pobačaja, rođenja mrtvorođenčeta i prijevremenog poroda, rezultira dvostrukim rizikom od smrti u kolijevci, a povećava rizik od astme i ušnih infekcija. 'Zato što autizam uključuju široki spektar stanja, a međuigra genetike i okoliša je tako složena, niti jedna studija ne može pokazati sve uzroke autizma. 'Cilj ovog rada je pomoći otkriti komadić slagalice. I u tome smo bili uspješni.' Studija je objavljena u časopisu Environmental Health Perspectives. Simptomi autizmaAutizam se odnosi na niz povezanih razvojnih poremećaja koji počinju u djetinjstvu i utječu na osobu cijeli život. Simptomi se mogu podijeliti u tri velike sukupoine: Problemi u socijalnoj interakciji Otežane jezične i komunikacijske vještine Neobični obrasci razmišljanja i ponašanja Osobe s autizmom mogu biti jako osjetljive na zvukove, dodire, okuse, mirise, svjetlo i boje. Simprotmi mogu varirati od blagih do teških, ali svi uzrokuju tjeskobu. Dok neki ljudi s autizmom mogu živjeti relativno neovisno, drugi mogu trebati doživotnu specijalističku potporu. Ne postoji lijek, ali postoji nekoliko tretmana koji autističnim osobama pomažu bolje se nositi sa svijetom koji ih okružuje. U Britaniji jedno od 100 djece ima neki poremećaj iz autističnog spektra. Tri puta je češći kod dječaka nego djevojčica. (izvor: autism.org.uk)
