Women exposed to high levels of fine particulate matter specifically
during pregnancy—particularly during the third trimester—may face up to
twice the risk of having a child with autism than mothers living in
areas with low particulate matter, according to a new study from Harvard
School of Public Health (HSPH). The greater the exposure, the greater
the risk, researchers found. It was the first U.S.-wide study exploring
the link between airborne particulate matter and autism.
