Abstract
Tobacco smoking and alcohol consumption
during pregnancy are particularly prevalent in low
socioeconomic status populations, with an adverse
association with birth outcomes and cardiometabolic
risk factors. However, the direct and indirect effects of
prenatal cigarette smoking and alcohol consumption
during pregnancy on cardiometabolic risk in offspring have
been rather inconsistent. This may be attributed to multiple
factors, such as the amount and timing of exposure to
tobacco smoking and alcohol during pregnancy; the
influence of maternal, environmental and socioeconomic
factors; or how risk factors were defined by individual
researchers and studies.
