Maternal smoking during pregnancy. Effects on lung function during the first 18 months of life.
Abstract
The present investigation evaluated the effects of maternal smoking during pregnancy on the growth of lung function during the first 18 mo of life in 159 infants who were part of a longitudinal study of the effects of maternal smoking on respiratory health. Infant pulmonary function was assessed at 2 to 6 wk of age and at 4 to 6, 9 to 12, and 15 to 18 mo of age by partial expiratory flow-volume curves and helium dilution FRC. Maternal smoking was assessed by standard questionnaire and urine cotinine measurements. Maternal smoking during pregnancy was associated with a reduction of 9.4 +/- 4.3 ml (p = 0.029) for FRC and 33 +/- 12.3 ml/s (p = 0.008) reduction for flow at FRC (VFRC) after controlling for the effects of growth (length). The effect of maternal smoking was greater for female infants than for male infants. At 1 yr female infants exposed in utero were predicted to have a 16% reduction in VFRC compared with 5% for male infants. No sex difference was seen for FRC or VFRC/FRC. Exposure to environmental tobacco smoke in the postnatal period was not significantly related to reduced FRC or VFRC. These data provide further evidence that maternal smoking during pregnancy may play a greater role than postnatal and childhood exposure on the observed effects on lung function in children.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
