“…After adjusting for confounders and after correction for multiple comparisons, we observed that mRNA expression of IL-8 (β =  − 0.53; 95% CI, − 0.92 to − 0.15), IL-6 (β =  − 0.58; 95% CI, − 0.97 to − 0.19), TNF-α (β =  − 0.37; 95% CI, − 0.71 to − 0.02), and IFN-γ (β =  − 0.31; 95% CI, − 0.61 to − 0.03) in the placenta was negatively associated with preschoolers’ full scale intelligence quotient (FSIQ). Both higher IL-8 and IL-6 were associated with lower children’s low fluid reasoning index (FRI), and higher IFN-γ was associated with lower children’s working memory index (WMI). …”

“…In study 1, we included a total of 1,734 participants (boys, 907, age [mean ± standard deviation] 171.9 ± 3.44 months; range 163.0–186.0 months) from the Tokyo TEEN Cohort (TTC) to examine the association between macronutrient intake and intelligence quotient (IQ). In study 2, we included a total of 63 participants (boys, 38, age 174.4 ± 7.7 months; range 160.7–191.6 months) to investigate the effect of nutrition intake on neural development using graph theory analysis for resting-state functional magnetic resonance imaging (rs-fMRI) derived from a subset of the TTC.ResultsTTC data revealed that a higher IQ was associated in boys with increased protein intake (β = 0.068, p = 0.031), and in girls, with reduced carbohydrate intake (β = −0.076, p = 0.024). …”
