Association between exposure to ambient particulate matters and risks of autism spectrum disorder in children: a systematic review and exposure-response meta-analysis
The impact of prenatal and early childhood exposure of ambient particulate matters (PMs) on the risk of autism spectrum disorder (ASD) in children remained inconclusive, particularly at low levels below current National Ambient Air Quality Standards. The study summarizes the epidemiological association between PM exposure and risks of ASD in children. PubMed, Embase, Web of Science, Cochrane Library, Compendex, Biosis Previews, and Agricultural & Environmental Science Databases for studies published before February 2020. Original studies with the following information were included: (a) exposure of ambient PM (including PM _2.5 and/or PM _10 ); (b) ASD as the outcome of interest in children; (c) effect estimates of relative risk (RR), odds ratio (OR), or hazard ratio. The risks of ASD are summarized at different exposure windows (i.e. first, second, third trimesters, and early childhood period) by using a random-effects model. Exposure-response meta-regression was performed across various background levels of PM _2.5 . We used Newcastle–Ottawa Scale for quality assessment. Eleven studies (two cohort and nine case-control studies) and 313 301 children were enrolled. Overall, the risk of ASD increased by 64% (pooled RR = 1.64, 95% CI = 1.16–2.34) and 31% (pooled RR = 1.31, 95% CI = 1.08–1.58), with exposure to 10 μ g m ^−3 increment of PM _2.5 during early childhood and prenatal periods, respectively. Stratifying by three trimesters of prenatal period, the risk of ASD increased 35% per 10 μ g m ^−3 difference of PM _2.5 exposure during the third trimester (pooled RR = 1.35, 95% CI = 1.18–1.55), but not during the first and second trimesters. The risks of ASD persisted at the background PM _2.5 levels from 8 μ g m ^−3 (pooled RR = 1.30, 95% CI = 1.02–1.66) and onward. Our findings suggested an association between PM _2.5 exposure and risks of ASD, particularly within specific exposure windows, even at low background levels of PM _2.5 .
