Abstract
There are a growing number of reports on the association between air pollution and the risk of congenital anomalies. However, the results are inconsistent and most studies have only focused on the association of air pollution with congenital heart defects and orofacial clefts. Using an exploratory study design, we aimed to identify congenital anomalies that may be sensitive to maternal exposure to specific air pollutants during the periconceptional period. We conducted a case-control study of 7426 subjects born in the 15 years between 1999 and 2014 and registered in the European Registration of Congenital Anomalies and Twins Northern Netherlands (EUROCAT NNL). Concentrations of various air pollutants (PM10, PM2.5, PM10-2.5, NO2, NOX, absorbance) were obtained using land use regression models from the European Study of Cohorts for Air Pollution Effects (ESCAPE). We linked these data to every subject in the EUROCAT NNL registry via their full postal code. Cases were classified as children or fetuses born in the 15-year period with a major congenital anomaly that was not associated with a known monogenic or chromosomal anomaly. Cases were divided into anomaly subgroups and compared with two different control groups: control group ...Continue Reading
