“…Results from several large scale surveillance studies, such as the Behavioral Risk Factor Surveillance System and the Pregnancy Risk Assessment Monitoring System, indicate certain consistent demographic predictors of prenatal use, including older age, non-Hispanic background, education exceeding high school, and employment (Floyd et al, 1999;Phares et al, 2004). Other studies have shown that alcohol consumption before pregnancy predicts antenatal consumption as well (Chang et al, 1999b;Day et al, 1993).…”

“…Most striking is the impression that moderate ethanol exposure in utero causes cognitive deficits in children that may not become apparent until the child is challenged during the educational years (Conry, 1990;Streissguth et al, 1990) and may increase in severity as the child matures (Streissguth et al, 1991(Streissguth et al, , 1994. These observations raise a significant health concern, as it has been estimated that at least 10-20 times as many children are exposed to moderate levels of ethanol in utero compared with the heavy or binge patterns of consumption that can produce full-blown FAS (Day et al, 1993;Serdula et al, 1993;Stratton et al, 1996). The long-term objectives of our research program are to: 1) develop a better understanding of how prenatal ethanol exposure can affect the neurobiological mechanisms underlying learning and memory; and 2) identify the brain regions affected by prenatal ethanol exposure that contribute to the processes of memory formation and storage.…”

“…A strong predictor of alcohol use during pregnancy is alcohol use levels prior to pregnancy [Day et al, 1993;Floyd et al, 1999]. Fetal alcohol exposure prior to and after pregnancy recognition and their effect on pregnancy outcomes are important public health concerns.…”
