Maternal psychological distress associates with alterations in resting-state low-frequency fluctuations and distal functional connectivity of the neonate medial prefrontal cortex

Olli Rajasilta et al.

Summary: Prenatal stress exposure may have a programming effect on the developing infant brain, affecting temperament, cognitive functions, and psychiatric disorder risk. Maternal psychological distress during the 24th gestational week was found to be positively associated with neonate brain features, specifically in the medial prefrontal cortex. These findings suggest that prenatal stress exposure can impact the functional development of the brain during gestation.

Shaping the risk for late-life neurodegenerative disease: A systematic review on prenatal risk factors for Alzheimer's disease-related volumetric brain biomarkers

A. Boots et al.

Summary: Environmental exposures during pregnancy can negatively impact brain development and increase the risk of Alzheimer's disease. This systematic review examines the evidence linking prenatal exposures to brain biomarkers associated with AD. The review identified 79 studies reporting on prenatal exposures such as alcohol, smoking, illicit drugs, and nutritional deficiencies, which were associated with smaller brain volumes. The findings highlight the importance of the prenatal environment in shaping the risk of neurodegenerative diseases in later life.

From the Womb into the World: Protecting the Fetal Brain from Maternal Stress During Pregnancy

Marion van den Heuvel

Summary: The first nine months in the womb are crucial for a child's brain development, with maternal mental health playing a key role. Maternal stress during pregnancy can impact fetal brain wiring and increase the risk of neurodevelopmental disorders. Preventing and treating maternal prenatal stress through policy measures such as screening, discussion, interventions, stress-free communication, and positive postnatal parenting can improve fetal brain growth and contribute to a healthier next generation.

Prenatal Maternal Distress During the COVID-19 Pandemic and Associations With Infant Brain Connectivity

Kathryn Y. Manning et al.

Summary: The study found that the COVID-19 pandemic may have long-term impacts on children and highlighted the important role of social support for pregnant individuals and developing infants. These findings provide timely evidence for informing clinical practice and policy, underscoring the importance of social support.

Association of Elevated Maternal Psychological Distress, Altered Fetal Brain, and Offspring Cognitive and Social-Emotional Outcomes at 18 Months

Yao Wu et al.

Summary: This study examined the association between fetal brain development, prenatal maternal psychological distress, and long-term neurodevelopment outcomes in a cohort of 97 mother-infant dyads. The results showed that altered fetal brain development was associated with adverse social-emotional and competence outcomes in 18-month-old infants. Maternal stress, anxiety, and depression during pregnancy were also found to be positively associated with parenting stress measures. These findings highlight the importance of early identification and targeted interventions for prenatal brain development and maternal psychological well-being.

Prenatal Anxiety and Depression: Treatment Uptake, Barriers, and Facilitators in Midwifery Care

Pamela D. Browne et al.

Summary: This study found that only a small percentage of pregnant women in a Dutch community sample received treatment for symptoms of anxiety and/or depression, with the main reason for not engaging in treatment being the perception of these symptoms as a natural part of pregnancy. Referral by midwives was identified as the main facilitator for treatment uptake.

Maternal stress during pregnancy alters fetal cortico-cerebellar connectivity in utero and increases child sleep problems after birth

Marion van den Heuvel et al.

Summary: The study found that higher levels of maternal prenatal stress are associated with increased toddler sleep problems, as well as affecting fetal brain connectivity, but specific mediating effects were not identified. This suggests that further research should be conducted to explore and extend to other brain regions the underlying mechanisms of the link between maternal prenatal stress and child sleep problems.

How prenatal exposures shape the infant brain: Insights from infant neuroimaging studies

Alexander J. Dufford et al.

Summary: Brain development during the prenatal period is rapid and vulnerable to disorganizing influences, with certain prenatal exposures increasing the risk for negative neurodevelopmental outcomes. While there is evidence linking prenatal exposures to cognitive and behavioral outcomes later in life, the specific impact on macroscopic brain pathways remains unclear.

Prenatal and postnatal maternal anxiety and amygdala structure and function in young children

Claire Donnici et al.

Summary: The study found that maternal anxiety symptoms during pregnancy were associated with children's amygdala structure and function, potentially affecting behavioral outcomes in children. Postnatal maternal anxiety symptoms were also found to be related to child amygdala volume, but this association was not significant when controlling for total brain volume.

Prospective association of maternal psychosocial stress in pregnancy with newborn hippocampal volume and implications for infant social-emotional development

Nora K. Moog et al.

Summary: This study found an inverse association between maternal perceived stress during pregnancy and newborn left hippocampal volume, which was positively associated with infant social-emotional development. Maternal perceived stress indirectly influenced infant social-emotional development through newborn left hippocampal volume, highlighting the importance of maternal psychosocial state during pregnancy in influencing offspring's neural and behavioral outcomes.

Exposure to prenatal maternal distress and infant white matter neurodevelopment

Catherine H. Demers et al.

Summary: The prenatal period is crucial for brain growth, and maternal distress during this time can affect the white matter microstructure of infants, particularly at 29 weeks' gestational age. However, no other significant associations were found between prenatal distress exposure and white matter microstructure at other stages of gestation.

Interactive relations between maternal prenatal stress, fetal brain connectivity, and gestational age at delivery

Moriah E. Thomason et al.

Summary: Maternal prenatal stress is associated with variations in fetal brain functional connectivity, with stronger effects observed in women with better health behaviors, positive interpersonal support, and lower overall stress. Additionally, the differences in neural connectivity due to stress are marginally correlated with younger gestational age at delivery. This study provides the first evidence of how negative affect and stress during pregnancy can impact fetal brain programming.
