Neonatal behavioural correlates of prenatal exposure to marihuana, cigarettes and alcohol in a low risk population

Fried, P.A., Makin, J.E.·1987·Neurotoxicology and Teratology

Abstract

Infant neonatal behaviour is significantly and differentially related to maternal marihuana, cigarette and alcohol use during pregnancy. Data on 250 babies born to healthy, predominantly middle-class women were analyzed using canonical analysis and multiple regression adjusting for potentially confounding variables. Prenatal marihuana exposure was associated with increased tremors and startles and poorer habituation to visual stimuli, prenatal cigarette exposure with increased tremors and poorer auditory habituation, whereas a relatively low level of alcohol consumption was marginally related to increased neonatal irritability.

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.
