Heavy prenatal alcohol exposure can have lifelong, disabling effects on brain and cognition. Unlike animal studies, research on light-to-moderate drinking in humans demonstrates less consistent impact. Discussions of negative research findings in popular media underestimate potential adverse outcomes and complicate decisions about risks versus benefits of light-to-moderate drinking during pregnancy.
孕期大量饮酒会对大脑和认知产生终身性的致残影响。与动物研究不同，关于人类轻度至中度饮酒的研究显示出的影响不太一致。大众媒体对负面研究结果的讨论低估了潜在的不良后果，也使关于孕期轻度至中度饮酒的风险与益处的决策变得复杂。
