“…These results are similar to a 2011-2014 surveillance study across 23 US states in which 34% and 18% of women reported emotional and physical childhood abuse, respectively (Merrick et al, 2018). Similarly, a large study conducted in the province that the present study took place (Alberta) found 36% and 17% of adult women reported emotional and physical child abuse (Currie et al, 2020). We also note that the prevalence of physical child abuse in the present study was 4% lower than the Wave II CDC-Kaiser ACE Study with 3500 women in California, suggesting physical child abuse varies across place and time and may not be unusually high in the present sample (Merrick et al, 2017).…”

A recent systematic review highlighted associations between childhood abuse and adult sleep quality, and the need for research focused specifically on women and the role of moderating variables. The objectives of the present study were (1) to assess the impact of frequent physical and emotional child abuse on adult sleep among women; and (2) to assess the role that childhood socioeconomic status (SES) could play in moderating these associations. In-person data were collected from women living in a mid-sized city in western Canada in 2019–2020 (N = 185; M age = 40 years). Sleep quality was measured using the Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index. Physical and emotional abuse experienced often or very often in childhood were assessed using single items (yes or no). Childhood SES was assessed by a single item and dichotomized at the sample median. Linear regression models examined associations between each form of abuse and continuous adult sleep quality score adjusted for covariates. Statistically significant interactions were stratified and examined by child SES group. Frequent physical and emotional childhood abuse were each associated with clinically and statistically significant increases in past-month sleep problem scores among women in adjusted models. This association was moderated by childhood SES for emotional child abuse, but not physical child abuse. Findings suggest that growing up in an upper-middle to upper SES household may buffer the adverse impact of frequent emotional child abuse on later adult sleep, but may not promote resilience in the context of frequent physical child abuse.

“…Unfortunately these experiences are common; data from the Behavioral Risk Factor Surveillance System (BRFSS) demonstrates that 59% of the US adult population has experienced at least one adverse childhood event ( Merrick et al, 2018 ). In addition, the accumulation of these adversities has been shown to be more detrimental to health than experiencing one adversity in a dose response fashion ( Currie et al, 2020 ; Felitti, Anda, Nordenberg, & et al, 1998a , 1998b ). Individual adversities as well as the accumulation of CAs, have been associated with negative mental and physical health outcomes in childhood, adolescence and adulthood ( Schilling et al, 2007 ).…”

“…According to previous studies, ACEs are positively correlated with antepartum health risks, and people with ACEs have difficulty controlling their emotions and seek strong compensatory strategies to mitigate negative emotions during pregnancy. This alters the neurobiological circuit and increases the risk of binge drinking during pregnancy [10], and mothers with a high number of ACEs exhibited a high risk for pregnancy diabetes, preeclampsia, low birth weight infants, and short gestation period [5]. Furthermore, chronic stress caused by ACEs elevates risky health behaviors, such as smoking, drinking, and binge eating, which are likely to lead to adverse birth outcomes, such as miscarriage and preterm birth [11].…”

This study aimed to examine the effect of maternal adverse childhood experiences (ACEs) on the attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) symptoms in the offspring and to examine the mediating role of antepartum health risk on the intergenerational transmission of maternal ACEs. Methods: The participants consisted of 461 mother-child dyads. Mothers completed the ACEs questionnaire and Diagnostic Predictive Scales. Multivariate logistic regression analysis was used to estimate the risk of ADHD symptoms in the offspring of mothers with ACEs and the mediating effect of antepartum health risks by path analysis. Results: In all, 35.4% (n=163) had at least one maternal ACE, and 11.1% (n=51) had three or more. Compared to the non-ADHD symptom group, the group of offspring with ADHD symptoms showed a significant association with maternal ACE score (p<0.001) and antepartum health risks (p<0.001). Multivariate analysis further showed a significant association between the sum of maternal ACEs [odds ratio (OR)=1.264, 95% confidence interval (CI)= 1.060-1.516, p=0.009], antepartum health risks (OR=1.236, 95% CI=1.036-1.475, p= 0.019), and ADHD symptoms in the offspring. In the mediation model in which the mother's ACE score affected the offspring's ADHD symptoms, partial mediation through antepartum health risks was found to be significant (B=0.041, 95% CI=0.011-0.124). Conclusion:Maternal ACEs are significantly related to the incidence of ADHD symptoms in the offspring and antepartum health risks exert an indirect effect. These findings suggest that maternal ACEs have a negative impact on the offspring's brain development through intergenerational transmission, resulting in neurodevelopmental disorders such as ADHD.
