Functional Impairment Related to ADHD From Preschool to School Age Open
Objective: Children with ADHD often experience functional impairments across various aspects of daily life. This study addresses the dearth of longitudinal research on functional impairment trajectories from preschool to school age in chil…

Prenatal organophosphorus pesticide exposure and executive function in preschool-aged children in the Norwegian Mother, Father and Child Cohort Study (MoBa) Open
Introduction: Prenatal exposure to organophosphorus pesticides (OPPs) has been associated with neurodevelopmental deficits in children, however evidence linking OPPs with specific cognitive mechanisms, such as executive function (EF), is l…

Mercury exposure in the Norwegian Mother, Father, and Child Cohort Study – measured and predicted blood concentrations and associations with birth weight Open
The results indicate that prediction of BTHg did not overcome negative confounding of the association between Hg exposure and birth weight by seafood intake. Furthermore, effect on birth weight of toxicological concern is unexpected in our…
View article: Gestational thyroid hormone concentrations and risk of attention-deficit hyperactivity disorder in the Norwegian Mother, Father and Child Cohort Study
Gestational thyroid hormone concentrations and risk of attention-deficit hyperactivity disorder in the Norwegian Mother, Father and Child Cohort Study Open
Background: Maternal thyroid function plays an important role in foetal brain development; however, little consensus exists regarding the relationship between normal variability in thyroid hormones and common neurodevelopmental disorders, …

Effects of sample handling and analytical procedures on thyroid hormone concentrations in pregnant women's plasma Open
Background: Maternal thyroid function is a critical mediator of fetal brain development. Pregnancy-related physiologic changes and handling conditions of blood samples may influence thyroid hormone biomarkers. We investigated the reliabili…

Gestational Phthalate Exposure and Preschool Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder in Norway Open
Prenatal phthalate exposure has been linked to altered neurobehavioral development in both animal models and epidemiologic studies, but whether or not these associations translate to increased risk of neurodevelopmental disorders is unclea…
View article: Prenatal exposure to per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) and associations with attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder and autism spectrum disorder in children
Prenatal exposure to per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) and associations with attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder and autism spectrum disorder in children Open
Background: Prenatal exposure to per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) may be a risk factor for neurodevelopmental deficits and disorders, but evidence is inconsistent. Objectives: We investigated whether prenatal exposure to PFAS wer…
View article: Prenatal phthalates, maternal thyroid function, and risk of attention-deficit hyperactivity disorder in the Norwegian mother and child cohort
Prenatal phthalates, maternal thyroid function, and risk of attention-deficit hyperactivity disorder in the Norwegian mother and child cohort Open
BACKGROUND: There is growing concern that phthalate exposures may have an impact on child neurodevelopment. Prenatal exposure to phthalates has been linked with externalizing behaviors and executive functioning defects suggestive of an att…
View article: Neonatal thyroid-stimulating hormone and association with attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder
Neonatal thyroid-stimulating hormone and association with attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder Open
Background: Normal brain development is dependent on maternal, fetal and neonatal thyroid function. Measuring neonatal thyroid-stimulating hormone (TSH) 48-72 hours after birth screens for congenital hypothyroidism, allowing early treatmen…
View article: Maternal Thyroid Function during Pregnancy or Neonatal Thyroid Function and Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder: A Systematic Review
Maternal Thyroid Function during Pregnancy or Neonatal Thyroid Function and Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder: A Systematic Review Open
Background: Attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) is the most common neurobehavioral disorder in children, yet its etiology is poorly understood. Early thyroid hormone disruption may contribute to the development of ADHD. Disrupt…
View article: Gestational blood levels of PFAS mixtures and associations with global DNA methylation in pregnant women and their infants
Gestational blood levels of PFAS mixtures and associations with global DNA methylation in pregnant women and their infants Open
BACKGROUND AND AIM: Pregnant women and their foetuses are exposed to multiple perfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) that may alter epigenetic regulation, such as DNA methylation, which may negatively affect health and development in childhood a…

Association between gestational levels of toxic metals and essential elements and cerebral palsy in children Open
Introduction Cerebral palsy (CP) is the most common motor disability in childhood, but its causes are only partly known. Early-life exposure to toxic metals and inadequate or excess amounts of essential elements can adversely affect brain …

View article: Prenatal organophosphate ester exposure and executive function in Norwegian preschoolers
Prenatal organophosphate ester exposure and executive function in Norwegian preschoolers Open
Background: Organophosphate esters (OPEs) are ubiquitous chemicals, used as flame retardants and plasticizers. OPE usage has increased over time as a substitute for other controlled compounds. This study investigates the impact of prenatal…

Secular trends in mental health problems among young people in Norway: A review and meta-analysis Open
There is a growing concern that the mental health of recent generations of youth is deteriorating, yet the etiology of these secular changes is not fully understood. We aimed to review the evidence on trends in mental health problems among…
