And other neurodevelopmental disorders.
quote:

Concerns have emerged about the impact of paracetamol use in pregnancy on child neurodevelopment, particularly in relation to autism spectrum disorder. We aimed to synthesise available evidence to investigate associations between prenatal paracetamol exposure and autism spectrum disorder, attention-deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD), and intellectual disability.

quote:

43 studies were included in the systematic review, and 17 studies in the meta-analysis. When considering sibling comparison studies, paracetamol exposure during pregnancy was not associated with the risk of autism spectrum disorder (OR 0·98, 95% CI 0·93–1·03; p=0·45), ADHD (0·95, 0·86–1·05; p=0·31), or intellectual disability (0·93, 0·69–1·24; p=0·63). There was also no association between paracetamol intake during pregnancy and autism spectrum disorder (OR 1·03, 95% CI 0·86–1·23; p=0·78), ADHD (0·97, 0·89–1·05; p=0·49), or intellectual disability (1·11, 0·92–1·34; p=0·28) when considering only studies at low risk of bias according to QUIPS. This absence of association persisted when considering all studies with adjusted estimates and those with more than 5 years of follow-up.
