Popis výsledku v původním jazyce

Background: Maternal alcohol consumption can adversely affect children&apos;s development, butthe impact of paternal drinking is less understood. We aimed to investigate whether maternalor paternal alcohol consumption during pregnancy affected children&apos;s mental health andbehavior.Methods: A total of 2,013 parent-child triads from the European Longitudinal Study ofPregnancy and Childhood cohort were used. Data on alcohol consumption was obtained fromquestionnaires during pregnancy and after the child&apos;s birth. Mental health and behavior ofchildren was assessed with Strength and Difficulties Questionnaire (SDQ). The associationswere tested using linear regression, adjusting for socio-demographic and psychosocialcovariates.Results: Increased maternal alcohol consumption was associated with higher total SDQscores at ages 7, 11, and 18 years old when the outcomes were reported by mothers, but onlyat 11 years when reported by children. We did not observe any dose-response relationship,and the effect size did not change during the follow-up. The effects were observed acrossvarious domains of SDQ: in the emotional symptoms subscale at age 11, in the conductproblems subscale at ages 7 and 11, and in the hyperactivity/inattention subscale at age 18.Paternal alcohol consumption was not associated with SDQ.Conclusions: Maternal alcohol consumption during pregnancy is associated with long-termeffects on children&apos;s mental health and behavior, particularly when reported by mothers. Noassociation was found between paternal alcohol consumption, suggesting that the results maystem from biological effects of alcohol or other factors beyond the direct exposure, potentiallyencompassing broader maternal psychosocial or behavioral characteristics.
