Abnormalities in offspring associated with prenatal marihuana exposure.

5 newborn infants, whose mothers acknowledged steady use of marihuana prior to and during pregnancies, displayed symptoms of intrauterine growth retardation, neurological problems, and abnormal morphogenesis. These findings fit in with the experimental studies and surveys of pregnant human populations which have indicated that cannabis products have teratogenic potential, though rigorous proof must await further information.

Minimal brain dysfunction in childhood: outcome in late adolescence and early adult years.

Seventy-three patients, diagnosed in childhood as having minimal brain dysfunction syndrome and further classified as either developmental lag (38%) or organic brain syndrome (62%), were followed into late adolescence and early adult life. At follow-up 7% were free of psychiatric disorder, 80% had various types of personality disorder, and 14% were borderline psychotic. Global outcome was rated as satisfactory in 20%, unsatisfactory in 80%. Associated with an unsatisfactory outcome were these initial findings: low normal or borderline intelligence, multiplicity of behavioral and neuropsychological findings, learning disabilities, special class placement, and initial classification of organic brain syndrome. Initial differentiation between developmental lag and organic brain syndrome foreshadowed different psychopathological features having significant polarities and little overlap, as well as different global outcome.
