Several studies have been carried out to examine the association between cigarette smoking during pregnancy and risk of developing gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM), yet the findings are mixed. Therefore, we aimed to estimate the relationship between cigarette smoking during pregnancy and GDM risk. PubMed, ScienceDirect, and Cochrane Library databases were searched up to December 2017. Studies on cigarette smoking during pregnancy and GDM were retrieved. The pooled odds ratios (ORs) and their 95% confidence intervals (CIs) for highest versus lowest level of cigarette smoking were calculated using a random-effects model. Compared to nonsmoking, the pooled ORs of cigarette smoking during pregnancy were 0.98 (95% CI: 0.88-1.10) for GDM. Specifically, the pooled ORs of light smoking and heavy smoking during pregnancy for GDM were 1.10 (95% CI: 0.97-1.25) and 1.02 (95% CI: 0.67-1.53), respectively. Our findings suggest that there is no significant association between cigarette smoking during pregnancy and risk of GDM.

Introduction: Pregnant people who smoke constitute a uniquely vulnerable population likely to be impacted by a menthol cigarette (MC) ban. However, there are no published reports of prevalence of prenatal MC use in a nationally-representative US sample including racial-ethnic disparities and associated characteristics.
Methods: Participants were 1245 US pregnant people who smoked MC or non-MC (NMC) in the past 30-days from the 2010-2019 National Survey on Drug Use and Health.

Background: People from lower socioeconomic groups are more likely to smoke and less likely to succeed in achieving abstinence, making tobacco smoking a leading driver of health inequalities. Contextual factors affecting subpopulations may moderate the efficacy of individual-level smoking cessation interventions. It is not known whether any intervention performs differently across socioeconomically-diverse populations and contexts.

Introduction: Ecological momentary assessment (EMA) is popular in smoking research to study time-varying processes and design just-in-time personalised cessation interventions. Yet, research examining the psychometric properties of EMA and user experiences with EMA protocols is lacking. We conducted a mixed-methods study to test the EMA component of a mobile intervention for middle to late-aged adolescents (16-20 years) who smoke cigarettes at least weekly.

Background: Understanding the association of tobacco product use with subclinical markers is essential in evaluating health effects to inform regulatory policy. This is particularly relevant for noncigarette products (eg, cigars, pipes, and smokeless tobacco), which have been understudied because of their low prevalence in individual cohort studies.
Methods: This cross-sectional study included 98 450 participants from the Cross-Cohort Collaboration-Tobacco data set.

Background: Cigarette smoking remains a significant public health concern, with detrimental effects on both smokers and those exposed to secondhand smoke. This study investigates the factors influencing smoking behaviors in Iranian households, focusing on households with children under five years old.
Methods: We conducted a cross-sectional analysis of 8751 Iranian households using data from the Iranian Household Income and Expenditure Survey (HIES) collected by the Statistical Center of Iran (SCI) in 2021.
