Intrauterine viral infections induce an increase in the levels of proinflammatory cytokines, which inhibit the proliferation of neuronal precursor cells and stimulate oligodendrocyte cell death, leading to abnormal neurodevelopment. Whether a maternal cytokine storm can affect neonatal brain development is unclear. The objective of the present study was to assess neurodevelopmental outcomes in neonates born to mothers with SARS-CoV-2 infections during pregnancy.<\/jats:p>\n <\/jats:sec>\n \n Methods<\/jats:title>\n \n In this prospective cohort study, the neurodevelopmental status of infants (\n N<\/jats:italic>\n \u2009=\u2009298) born to women with SARS-CoV-2 infections during pregnancy was assessed at 10\u201312\u00a0months post-discharge using the Ages and Stages Questionnaire, 3rd edition (ASQ-3). The ASQ-3 scores were classified into developmental delays (cutoff scores\u2009\u2264\u20092 standard deviations (SDs) below the population mean) and no delays (scores\u2009>\u20092 SDs above the population mean).\n <\/jats:p>\n <\/jats:sec>\n \n Results<\/jats:title>\n \n The majority (90%) of the infants born to mothers with SARS-CoV-2 infections during pregnancy had favorable outcomes and only 10% showed developmental delays. Two of the 298 infants tested positive for SARS-CoV-2, and both had normal ASQ-3 scores. The majority of the pregnant women had SARS-CoV-2 infections during their third trimester. The risk of developmental delays among infants was higher in those whose mothers had SARS-CoV-2 infections during the first (\n P<\/jats:italic>\n \u2009=\u20090.039) and second trimesters (\n P<\/jats:italic>\n \u2009=\u20090.001) than in those whose mothers had SARS-CoV-2 infections during the third trimester.\n <\/jats:p>\n <\/jats:sec>\n \n Conclusion<\/jats:title>\n The neurodevelopmental outcomes of infants born to mothers with SARS-CoV-2 infections seem favorable. However, more studies with larger sample sizes and longer follow-up periods are required.<\/jats:p>\n <\/jats:sec>","DOI":"10.1186\/s12887-022-03359-2","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2022,5,30]],"date-time":"2022-05-30T04:04:31Z","timestamp":1653883471000},"update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1007\/springer_crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":68,"title":["Neurodevelopmental outcomes of infants born to mothers with SARS-CoV-2 infections during pregnancy: a national prospective study in Kuwait"],"prefix":"10.1186","volume":"22","author":[{"given":"Mariam","family":"Ayed","sequence":"first","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Alia","family":"Embaireeg","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Mais","family":"Kartam","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Kiran","family":"More","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Mafaza","family":"Alqallaf","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Abdullah","family":"AlNafisi","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Zainab","family":"Alsaffar","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Zainab","family":"Bahzad","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Yasmeen","family":"Buhamad","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Haneen","family":"Alsayegh","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Wadha","family":"Al-Fouzan","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Hessa","family":"Alkandari","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"297","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2022,5,30]]},"reference":[{"key":"3359_CR1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","first-page":"m3320","DOI":"10.1136\/bmj.m3320","volume":"370","author":"J Allotey","year":"2020","unstructured":"J Allotey E Stallings M Bonet M Yap S Chatterjee T Kew 2020 Clinical manifestations, risk factors, and maternal and perinatal outcomes of coronavirus disease 2019 in pregnancy: living systematic review and meta-analysis BMJ 370 m3320 https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1136\/bmj.m3320","journal-title":"BMJ"},{"key":"3359_CR2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","unstructured":"la Cour Freiesleben N, Egerup P, Hviid KVR, Severinsen ER, Kolte AM, Westergaard D.SARS-CoV-2 in first trimester pregnancy: a cohort study.
