Abstract
Exposure to pyrethroids, a widely used agricultural, forestry, and household insecticide, is a major public health concern due to its potential health effects on children. The aim of this review was to summarize the current knowledge of the effects of prenatal exposure to pyrethroids on the course and outcome of pregnancy, health status, and neurobehavioural development of children. A systematic and comprehensive search of the PubMed, Web of Science, and Scopus databases was conducted during January-February 2024. The review included original articles published in peerreviewed English-language journals since 2015. Based on keywords, 198 studies were identified and screened for eligibility. Ultimately, the review analyzed 25 articles including 16 that assessed the effects of prenatal exposure to pyrethroids on children's neurobehavioural development, 3 studies that assessed the effects on the course and outcome of pregnancy, and further 3 focused on respiratory disease. In addition, 1 study analyzed the development of obesity and 2 studies examined the effects on children's growth, weight and body composition in early childhood. In conclusion, there is considerable uncertainty about the adverse effects of prenatal exposure to pyrethroids on children's health. The strongest evidence has been reported for neurobehavioural development although results are also inconsistent. Further research is needed to understand the mechanisms of action and health effects of pyrethroids in susceptible populations. Int J Occup Med Environ Health. 2024;37(4):381-402.
期刊介绍:
Accounts of Chemical Research presents short, concise and critical articles offering easy-to-read overviews of basic research and applications in all areas of chemistry and biochemistry. These short reviews focus on research from the author’s own laboratory and are designed to teach the reader about a research project. In addition, Accounts of Chemical Research publishes commentaries that give an informed opinion on a current research problem. Special Issues online are devoted to a single topic of unusual activity and significance.
Accounts of Chemical Research replaces the traditional article abstract with an article "Conspectus." These entries synopsize the research affording the reader a closer look at the content and significance of an article. Through this provision of a more detailed description of the article contents, the Conspectus enhances the article's discoverability by search engines and the exposure for the research.
