Abstract

In recent times, a considerable body of research has been dedicated to investigating the correlation between prenatal or earlylife exposure to environmental contaminants and the subsequent development of enduring health consequences. After the Systematic literature review it is revealed that he newborn may have direct or indirect impacts on neurobehavioral responses, as well as the immunological, endocrine, and respiratory systems, through placental transfer or breastfeeding (figure 03). These effects may be influenced, in part, by epigenetic mechanisms. Children are vulnerable to excessive exposure as a result of their relatively tiny stature, increased absorption of oxygen, food and fluids relative to their body weight, and their inability to crawl. Limited research has been conducted on the enduring impacts of early exposures. In order to address chemical pollution through educational efforts, it is imperative for medical professionals, child care establishments, and pregnant women to employ a risk assessment approach that incorporates the complexities of human biology. The present study offers a thorough overview of behavioral and physiological traits seen during infancy and pregnancy, proposing an innovative methodology for evaluating the potential risks associated with the management of chronic pediatric illnesses.
