Abstract Background Evidence regarding the association between perinatal smoking and insomnia symptoms in adulthood is limited. Using the UK 1970 Birth Cohort Study, we determined the association of maternal smoking during pregnancy and early-childhood with insomnia symptoms at 42 years. Methods Participants were followed from birth (1970; N = 9020; male, 48%) and age 5 (1975; N = 8050; male, 47.9%) to 42 years (2012). Data on maternal smoking was collected at birth and age 5; difficulties initiating or maintaining sleep (DIMS) and DIMS plus daytime symptoms (tiredness, irritability, depression and nervousness) [DIMS plus] at age 42. We used a direct acyclic graph to select confounders. A log-binomial logistic regression, adjusted for confounders, was used to estimate the association. Missing data were imputed via multiple imputation. Results The prevalence of DIMS and DIMS plus was 32% and 25%, respectively. There was a 25% [odds ratio (OR)=1.25; 95% confidence interval (CI): 1.12-1.38)] and 23% [OR = 1.23; 95% CI: 1.09-1.38] increase in odds of DIMS and DIMS plus among participants whose mothers smoked during pregnancy compared to those whose mother did not. A 24% [OR = 1.24; 95% CI: 1.12-1.37] and 18% [OR = 1.18; 95% CI: 1.05-1.33] increase in odds of DIMS and DIMS plus respectively, was observed among participants who had smoking mothers at age 5. Intensity and duration of smoking had a dose-response relationship with insomnia symptoms. Conclusions Maternal smoking during pregnancy and early-childhood is associated with increased risk of adult insomnia symptoms. Key messages This study suggests that reducing maternal smoking may reduce the risk of adult insomnia.

OBJECTIVE Investigate the effect of exposure to smoking during pregnancy and early childhood on changes in the body mass index (BMI) from birth to adolescence. METHODS A population-based cohort of children (0-5 years old) from Cuiabá, Midwest Brazil, was assessed in 1999-2000 (n = 2,405). Between 2009 and 2011, the cohort was re-evaluated. Information about birth weight was obtained from medical records, and exposure to smoking during pregnancy and childhood was assessed at the first interview. Linear mixed effects models were used to estimate the association between exposure to maternal smoking during pregnancy and preschool age, and the body mass index of children at birth, childhood and adolescence. RESULTS Only 11.3% of the mothers reported smoking during pregnancy, but most of them (78.2%) also smoked during early childhood. Among mothers who smoked only during pregnancy (n = 59), 97.7% had smoked only in the first trimester. The changes in body mass index at birth and in childhood were similar for children exposed and those not exposed to maternal smoking. However, from childhood to adolescence the rate of change in the body mass index was higher among those exposed only during pregnancy than among those who were not exposed. CONCLUSIONS Exposure to smoking only during pregnancy, especially in the first trimester, seems to affect changes in the body mass index until adolescence, supporting guidelines that recommend women of childbearing age to stop smoking.

We examined the relationships between selected perinatal and early infancy factors (maternal smoking during pregnancy, infant low birthweight, breastfeeding, and early introduction of solid foods [<6 months of age] and increased BMI [≥85th, ≥95th percentiles for age, sex]), waist circumference (WC), C-reactive protein (CRP), triglycerides, total cholesterol, low-density lipoprotein (LDL) cholesterol, non-high-density lipoprotein (HDL) cholesterol, and decreased HDL cholesterol during early childhood. The population-based sample included 3,644 3-to-6-year-old Non-Hispanic White (NHW), Hispanic, and Non-Hispanic Black (NHB) children who participated in the 1999–2008 National Health and Nutrition Examination Surveys. Analysis showed that breastfeeding was significantly protective against early childhood obesity (OR 0.43, 95% CI, 0.27–0.69) and the highest quintile for WC (OR 0.58, 95% CI, 0.37–0.32) among NHW, and against the highest quintile of non-HDL cholesterol among NHB (OR 0.56, 95% CI, 0.32–0.98). Additionally, NHW children were significantly more likely to be obese (OR 2.22, 95% CI 1.30–3.78) and have higher CRP levels (OR 1.63, 95% CI, 1.05–2.51) if their mothers smoked during pregnancy. These results support the observation that breastfeeding may be protective against early childhood obesity while maternal smoking during pregnancy is a risk factor for obesity and increased CRP levels among NHW young children.
