Overview
The risk factors for intellectual disability are divided into three categories which are pre-natal, perinatal, and post-natal risk factors.
Risk Factors
- Genetic syndromes
- Inborn errors of metabolism
- Brain malformations
- Maternal disease
- Environmental factors such as the history of alcoholism, teratogens, and other drugs
Perinatal causes include events during labor and delivery that ultimately lead to ischemic injury to neonates' brains. [2]
- Hypoxic-ischemic injury
- Traumatic brain injury
- Infections
- Demyelinating disorders
- Infantile spasms
- Severe and chronic social deprivation
- Heavy metal poisoning
- Toxic metabolic syndromes

Overview
Risk factors for mental retardation include genetic syndromes, hypoxic ischemic injury, and seizure disorders among others.[1]
Risk Factors
- Genetic syndromes (e.g., sequence variations or copy number variants involving one or more genes; chromosomal disorders)
- Inborn errors of metabolism
- Brain malformations
- Maternal disease (including placental disease)
- Environmental influences (e.g., alcohol, other drugs, toxins, teratogens)
- Variety of labor and delivery-related events leading toneonatal encephalopathy
- Hypoxic ischemic injury
- Traumatic brain injury
- Infections
- Demyelinating disorders
- Seizure disorders (e.g., infantile spasms)
- Severe and chronic social deprivation
- Toxic metabolic syndromes and intoxications(e.g., lead, mercury)[2]
