Most current studies focus on statistics of the incidence,etiology,and rehabilitative treatment of cerebral palsy.However,very few studies focus on the environmental risk factors for this syndrome.In the present study,a total of 202 children with cerebral palsy in the Jiamusi district of China were selected as the case group,and 404 children were randomly selected for the control group.The survey focused on environmental factors during pregnancy,which included indoor pollution as the most dangerous factor(odds ratio = 2.432,95% confidence interval = 1.172-5.047;P = 0.017),followed by use of high-radiation mobile phones,more than 5 hours of watching television per day,and cooking with a marble kitchen platform during pregnancy.Results demonstrated that environmental risk factors play a role in the development of cerebral palsy in children.
