According to one study, up to 17% of children could experience symptoms of all fetal alcohol spectrum disorders



[ad_1]

According to a study, nearly 17% of UK children might exhibit the symptoms of a disorder related to alcohol consumption during pregnancy.

It is thought that Fetal Alcohol Spectrum Disorder (FASD) is underdiagnosed, with only one specialized clinic in England. Chronic illness, caused by exposure to alcohol during pregnancy, affects learning and behavior and can lead to physical abnormalities.

Researchers from Bristol University and Cardiff University used information collected by pregnant women between 1991 and 1992.

They followed the development of 13,495 children from birth to 15 years old.

The UK has the fourth highest level of prenatal alcohol use in the world, but research is the first to estimate the number of people with FASD.

Dr. Cheryl McQuire, a researcher in epidemiology and the consequences of alcohol at the University of Bristol, led the research, which is published in the journal Preventive medecine.

"Our results showed that a significant number of children tested for features compatible with FASD," said Dr. McQuire. "The results are based on a screening tool, which is not the same as a formal diagnosis. Nevertheless, the high rates of prenatal alcohol consumption and FASD symptoms we found in our study suggest that FASD is likely to be an important audience. health problem in the UK.

"These results are important because, without British estimates of the prevalence of FASD, the level of awareness will remain low and children, adolescents and adults will continue to have difficulty finding a diagnosis and gaining support. they might need. "

Dr. McQuire said information about prenatal alcohol consumption may have been collected almost 30 years ago, but the numbers have remained largely unchanged.

In research, which uses data from the Children of the 90s study in Bristol, up to 79% of children were exposed to alcohol.

"Recent estimates suggest that three-quarters of women consume alcohol during pregnancy, a third of which is at excessive levels," said Dr. McQuire. This suggests that many individuals in our population today may also have symptoms of FASD. The most recent guidelines indicate that the safest solution is not to drink alcohol at all if you are pregnant or think you may be pregnant.

"It's important for people to be aware of the risks in order to make an informed decision about alcohol use during pregnancy."

The researchers developed a screening tool that was applied to the data.

Un dépistage positif de l'ETCAF était défini comme un problème lié à au moins trois domaines différents d'apprentissage ou de comportement, avec ou sans anomalies physiques.

Ces anomalies comprennent un retard de croissance et des traits faciaux distinctifs, tels qu'une lèvre supérieure fine et de petites ouvertures oculaires.

Jusqu'à 17% des participants à l'étude ont eu un dépistage positif des symptômes de l'ETCAF.

Le dépistage a eu lieu dans les écoles de certains pays, tels que les États-Unis, le Canada et l’Italie.

Les résultats de ces études ont conclu que 10% des enfants de la population en général sont affectés, avec des taux pouvant atteindre 30% pour ceux qui sont pris en charge, a déclaré le Dr McQuire.

Elle appelle à poursuivre les recherches pour clarifier la prévalence actuelle de l'ETCAF au Royaume-Uni.

"Ces enfants auront des difficultés qui persisteront tout au long de leur vie", a-t-elle ajouté. "Il existe des preuves suggérant que si ces personnes sont diagnostiquées tôt et si elles-mêmes et leur famille obtiennent un soutien approprié, elles peuvent obtenir de bien meilleurs résultats."

Selon les conseils des médecins en chef du Royaume-Uni, les femmes enceintes ou qui pensent le devenir ne devraient pas boire d'alcool pour réduire au minimum les risques pour le bébé.

Il indique que le risque de préjudice est susceptible d'être faible si les femmes n'en ont bu que de petites quantités avant de savoir qu'elles étaient enceintes ou pendant leur grossesse.

Les femmes qui ont consommé de l'alcool en début de grossesse devraient éviter de boire davantage, même si les risques pour leur bébé sont susceptibles d'être faibles.

Quiconque s'inquiète de la consommation d'alcool pendant la grossesse devrait consulter son médecin ou sa sage-femme.

Le Dr Raja Mukherjee, qui dirige une clinique de diagnostic de l'ETCAF à Surrey et du Boarders Partnership NHS Foundation Trust, a déclaré: "Ces résultats très importants montrent qu'il est probable que de nombreuses personnes déjà atteintes de ce trouble ne sont pas retrouvées.

"Il semble y avoir un décalage entre ces résultats et ce que de nombreux cliniciens considèrent souvent comme une maladie rare. Cela montre qu'il s'agit d'un trouble apparemment dissimulé à la vue duquel nous devons prêter attention. Sauf si nous commençons à le rechercher, continuera à le manquer.

"Si nous ne parvenons pas à le diagnostiquer, les personnes touchées continueront d'être affectées par un manque de soutien et auront un impact ultérieur sur elles et sur un service plus étendu. Ces résultats peuvent être la première étape pour nous aider à réaliser que le Royaume-Uni n'est plus une condition que nous pouvons ignorer. "

Sandra Butcher, directrice générale de NO-FAS UK, une organisation caritative qui aide les personnes touchées, a déclaré qu'un soutien supplémentaire était nécessaire "à tous les niveaux".

"Cette étude met en lumière une crise de santé publique extrêmement répandue et en grande partie évitable", a-t-elle déclaré. "Aucun responsable politique soucieux de la santé mentale et physique des plus vulnérables de notre société ne devrait rester tranquille tant que nous n'aurons pas mis en place une action et une formation complètes à l'échelle britannique sur la prévention, le diagnostic et le soutien de l'ETCAF couvrant toute la vie de l'individu.

"Les bébés atteints de l'ETCAF deviennent des adultes atteints de l'ETCAF et un soutien accru est nécessaire à tous les niveaux."

L'étude Children of the 90s, également connue sous le nom d'Étude longitudinale Avon sur les parents et les enfants (ALSPAC), est un projet de recherche à long terme sur la santé.

Il a inscrit plus de 14 000 femmes enceintes en 1991 et 1992 et suit depuis la santé et le développement des parents et de leurs enfants.

Clare Murphy, du British Pregnancy Advisory Service (bpas), a déclaré: "Nous recommandons une réelle prudence quant à l'interprétation et à la communication de ces résultats.

"This study, as acknowledged by the authors themselves, does not prove any causal link between alcohol consumption in pregnant women and recorded developmental outcomes, and could cause unnecessary anxiety to pregnant women and parents. "
