The effect of tobacco smoking during pregnancy and breastfeeding on human milk composition-a systematic review

Marina Macchi et al.

Summary: Smoking during pregnancy and breastfeeding is significantly associated with alterations in breast milk composition, including lower levels of lipids, calories, and proteins, as well as decreased antioxidant properties and altered immune status. Further research is needed to understand how these changes impact newborns' development and outcomes.

Association Between Electronic Nicotine Delivery Systems Use and Breastfeeding Duration

Megan McBride et al.

Summary: Using electronic nicotine delivery systems (ENDS) during pregnancy is associated with a shorter duration of breastfeeding. Women who used ENDS during pregnancy were significantly less likely to breastfeed for at least 3 months compared to those who did not use ENDS. Identifying ENDS use during pregnancy could help support women at risk for suboptimal breastfeeding practices.

Smoking prevalence among hospitalized COVID-19 patients and its association with disease severity and mortality: an expanded re-analysis of a recent publication

Konstantinos Farsalinos et al.

Summary: This study revealed an unusually low prevalence of smoking among hospitalized COVID-19 patients, with no significant association found between smoking and disease severity but also no statistically significant link between smoking and mortality. Smokers are advised to quit due to long-term health risks, while exploring pharmaceutical nicotine and other nicotinic cholinergic agonists as potential therapeutic options.
