Prenatal exposure to maternal and paternal depressive symptoms and white matter microstructure in children
Open accessAbstract
BACKGROUND: Prenatal maternal depression has been associated with multiple problems in offspring involving affect, cognition, and neuroendocrine functioning. This suggests that prenatal depression influences neurodevelopment. However, the underlying neurodevelopmental mechanism remains unclear. We prospectively assessed whether maternal depressive symptoms during pregnancy and at the child's age 3 years are related to white matter microstructure in 690 children. The association of paternal depressive symptoms with childhood white matter microstructure was assessed to evaluate genetic or familial confounding. METHODS: Parental depressive symptoms were measured using the Brief Symptom Inventory. In children aged 6-9 years, we used diffusion tensor imaging to assess white matter microstructure characteristics including fractional anisotropy (FA) and mean diffusivity (MD). RESULTS: Exposure to maternal depressive symptoms during pregnancy was associated with higher MD in the uncinate fasciculus and to lower FA and higher MD in the cingulum bundle. No associations of maternal depressive symptoms at the child's age of 3 years with white matter characteristics were observed. Paternal depressive symptoms also showed a trend toward significance for a lower FA in the cingulum bundle. CONCLUSIONS: Prenatal maternal depressive symptoms were associated with higher MD in the uncinate fasciculus and the cingulum bundle. These structures are part of the limbic system, which is involved in motivation, emotion, learning, and memory. As paternal depressive symptoms were also related to lower FA in the cingulum, the observed effect may partly reflect a genetic predisposition and shared environmental family factors and to a lesser extent a specific intrauterine effect.

Elevated prenatal maternal depression correlates with lower radial and mean diffusivity in the lateral portions of the uncinate, the inferior fronto-occipital, and the arcuate fasciculi.
“In children, elevated prenatal maternal depression also correlates with lower radial and mean diffusivity in the lateral portions of the uncinate, the inferior fronto-occipital, and the arcuate fasciculi.”
From Brain structural and functional outcomes in the offspring of women experiencing psychological distress during pregnancy (2024) · cites this paper as [20]
Section 3.2 (Diffusivity; page not available) reports higher, not lower, mean diffusivity in the uncinate fasciculus with prenatal maternal depressive symptoms, and no association with mean diffusivity in the inferior fronto-occipital fasciculus. Section 2.4 says the study computed fractional anisotropy and mean diffusivity; the cited passages do not report the claimed lower radial diffusivity or an arcuate-fasciculus result. (LLM, conf=0.90)

Experimental — accuracy not yet measuredElevated prenatal maternal depression is associated with higher MD in the cingulum, amygdala-frontal tract, and uncinate fasciculus, and lower FA in the cingulum.
“It is also associated with higher MD in the cingulum, amygdala-frontal tract, and uncinate fasciculus, and lower FA in the cingulum [20, 25, 95].”
From Brain structural and functional outcomes in the offspring of women experiencing psychological distress during pregnancy (2024) · cites this paper as [20]
Section 3.2 and Table 2 report higher MD in the cingulum, but the association for the uncinate fasciculus overall is a trend (P = .054), with a significant result on the left only. Section 3.1 and Table 2 report lower FA in the right cingulum; the overall cingulum result is also a trend. The paper does not report higher MD in an amygdala-frontal tract.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
