Autism spectrum disorders (ASDs) are characterized by deficits in social functioning, stereotyped patterns of behaviors, narrowed interests, and elevated anxiety. Certain ASD symptoms can persist, whereas others may improve throughout the lifespan, but the specific patterns of changes have not been clearly delineated. Using a valproic acid (VPA) rat model of ASD, the present study took a developmental approach and examined how autistic-like behaviors, including anxiety-like behavior, object obsession, and social functioning deficits, manifested differently in three critical periods representing preadolescent (postnatal day [PND] 25), adolescent (PND 45), and adulthood life stage (PND 75) in a sex-dependent manner.

Article Synopsis
  • The study investigates the health, metabolic, and behavioral impacts of perinatal cannabidiol (CBD) exposure on female mice and their offspring into adulthood, highlighting the lack of research on this widely used supplement.
  • Results indicate that maternal CBD exposure can negatively affect offspring survival and postnatal development, particularly in males, while also producing various sex-dependent metabolic and behavioral changes in adults.
  • The findings suggest CBD exposure during pregnancy and lactation influences behaviors such as anxiety and obsessive-compulsive traits, with significant implications for understanding the safety and effects of CBD use during pregnancy.

  • - Perinatal obsessive-compulsive symptoms can significantly predict higher levels of postpartum anxiety, depression, and bipolar disorder in elderly women, negatively affecting both mothers and their children.
  • - The study assessed 122 elderly parturients at Panjin Central Hospital, where 30.33% exhibited perinatal obsessive-compulsive symptoms, with the majority displaying a combination of obsessive thoughts and behaviors.
  • - Various assessment tools were utilized to explore the relationship between these symptoms and psychological stress, and multivariate logistic regression was employed to identify influencing factors like pregnancy complications and emotional resilience.
