To investigate the maternal and neonatal risk factors related to pregnancy and birth affecting the occurrence of neurodevelopmental disorders to their children using the medical claim data for the whole population. The study was conducted on all the babies born in Korea from 2005 to 2009 based on data from the National Health Information Database. All birth records were tracked from birth to December 31, 2015. To analyze factors related to the mother, data related to the mother of the newborn were collected. Increased maternal age was found to increase the risk of cerebral palsy (adjusted odds ratio [aOR] = 1.46) and autism spectrum disorder (aOR = 1.48), while lowering the risk of intellectual disability (aOR = 1.83) and speech and language impairment (aOR = 1.41) compared with the reference group aged 25 to 29 years old. The incidence affected by socioeconomic factors varied according to the types of disorders. Among various risk factors, prematurity or low birth weight, problems associated with amniotic fluid or amniotic membrane, preeclampsia or eclampsia, and cesarean section affect the incidence of neurodevelopmental disorders. To reduce the incidence or severity of neurodevelopmental disorders, a better understanding of the risk factors of neurodevelopmental disorders is important. The results of this study can be used as basic data to help such understanding.

Autism spectrum disorder (ASD) is a neurodevelopmental disorder with a complex etiology, including genetic and environmental factors. A growing body of evidence (preclinical and clinical studies) implicates a potential role of gut microbiome dysregulation in ASD pathophysiology. This review focuses on the microbial metabolite p-Cresol, produced by certain gut bacteria such as Clostridium, and its potential role in ASD.

Objectives: Biallelic HPDL variants have been identified as the cause of a progressive childhood-onset movement disorder, with a broad clinical spectrum from severe neurodevelopmental disorder to juvenile-onset pure hereditary spastic paraplegia type 83. This study aims at delineating the geno- and phenotypic spectra of patients with HPDL-related disease, quantitatively modelling the natural history, and uncovering genotype-phenotype associations.

Methods: A cross-sectional analysis of 90 published and one novel case was performed, employing a Human Phenotype Ontology-based approach.
