Abstract
Manganese is essential for adequate feto-maternal health; however, an inverted U-shaped relation has been found between maternal manganese status and pregnancy complications. This systematic review summarizes the effect of maternal manganese exposure and perinatal health. We adopted a systematic approach to retrieve the recent literature. After applying the inclusion/exclusion criterion, a total of 20 studies were included in this review. Results found a non-significant relationship between maternal manganese exposure and risk of gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM), while only three studies reported the association between higher manganese levels and risk of preterm birth. Also, inconsistent results were found regarding higher manganese status and risk of low birth weight. This review reported no association between higher maternal manganese status andrisk of GDM. Nevertheless, the paucity of literature related to small for gestational age and pre-eclampsia prohibits a conclusion. Further studies are required for evaluation of environmental manganese exposure and maternal manganese status.
期刊介绍:
International Journal of Environmental Health Research ( IJEHR ) is devoted to the rapid publication of research in environmental health, acting as a link between the diverse research communities and practitioners in environmental health. Published articles encompass original research papers, technical notes and review articles. IJEHR publishes articles on all aspects of the interaction between the environment and human health. This interaction can broadly be divided into three areas: the natural environment and health – health implications and monitoring of air, water and soil pollutants and pollution and health improvements and air, water and soil quality standards; the built environment and health – occupational health and safety, exposure limits, monitoring and control of pollutants in the workplace, and standards of health; and communicable diseases – disease spread, control and prevention, food hygiene and control, and health aspects of rodents and insects. IJEHR is published in association with the International Federation of Environmental Health and includes news from the Federation of international meetings, courses and environmental health issues.
