WHO: A number of studies have found no link between autism and paracetamol use during pregnancy.

September 23, 2025 Healthcare

Although some studies have shown a possible link between acetaminophen (paracetamol) use during pregnancy and autism, the available data is conflicting. Several studies have found no such link, World Health Organization (WHO) spokesperson Tarik Jasarevic stated at a press briefing in Geneva today.

"If the link between acetaminophen and autism were strong, it would likely be observed consistently across multiple studies. The lack of reproducibility requires us to exercise caution when drawing causal conclusions about the role of acetaminophen in autism," he said.

Reproducibility in medical research means that scientists using the same method as in the original study can obtain the same results.

As a reminder, the day before, US President Donald Trump stated at a press conference at the White House that the active ingredient in Tylenol, acetaminophen, significantly increases the risk of autism in children if a woman takes it during pregnancy.

Trump presented data from the US Department of Health and Human Services and related agencies regarding the rise in autism cases in the country. The president noted that the department is preparing new regulatory measures on this issue. Trump also reiterated the link between autism and vaccination.

"It is important for women to continue to follow the advice of their doctors or healthcare professionals, who can help assess their individual circumstances and prescribe the necessary medications," Jasarevic emphasized, adding that medications should be used with caution during pregnancy, especially in the first three months.

Support for people with autism

There are nearly 62 million people worldwide with autism spectrum disorders. These disorders will be discussed on September 25 at a high-level meeting on noncommunicable diseases and mental health, which will be held as part of the UN General Assembly's Week of General Policy Debate.

“We, as a global community, need to do more to understand the causes of autism and the best ways to care for and support people with autism and their families,” Jasarevic said.

Vaccination schedule

The WHO childhood vaccination schedule has been adopted by all countries and has saved at least 154 million lives over the past 50 years, Jasarevic recalled.

"It remains crucial for the health and well-being of every child and every community. This calendar is constantly being updated in line with scientific advances and protects children, adolescents, and adults from 30 infectious diseases," he said.

All WHO vaccination recommendations are based on a thorough analysis of evidence, he stressed.

Guiyang, Sept. 23 (Xinhua) — The first international Ironman triathlon competition took place on Sunday near the world's highest bridge, which spans the Huajiang Gorge in southwest China's Guizhou Province.

More than 200 athletes from 20 countries and regions, including Russia, the USA, and France, took part in the competition.

Yegor Repin, a 26-year-old Russian who has been pursuing a master's degree in China since 2023, tried his hand at an Ironman triathlon for the first time.

He noted that the support of local residents and the unique natural landscapes of Guizhou Province inspired him during the competition. "Such beauty fills people with passion!"

For E. Repin, the allure of triathlon extends beyond the sport itself. He particularly praised the friends he made from all over the world during the competition.

"The athletes are full of enthusiasm. This atmosphere of unity, which helped bring everyone together, is a major reason for my participation in these competitions," the young man noted.

According to him, exchanges between Russia and China are becoming deeper and closer, and such sporting events are the embodiment of the friendship between the peoples of the two countries.

As a reminder, the bridge is located at the junction of Guanling-Buyi Miao Autonomous County in Anshun City and Zhenfeng County in Qianxinan-Buyi Miao Autonomous Prefecture. It is also a key project within the Liuzhi-Anlong Expressway.

Construction of the Huajiang Gorge Bridge began in January 2022. It is expected to open to traffic in the second half of 2025, reducing the time it takes to cross the canyon by car from over two hours to approximately one minute.

The design height of the aforementioned bridge from the bottom of the gorge to the bridge deck is 625 meters. The total length of this steel suspension bridge is 2,890 meters, and the length of the main span is 1,420 meters. After completion of all construction work, it will become not only the highest in the world, but also the bridge with the longest span in the world built in a mountainous area. -0-
