Background: While a wide range of predictors of postpartum smoking relapse have been suggested, population-based studies have rarely examined these factors exclusively among women who quit in early pregnancy. Furthermore, workplace secondhand smoke (SHS) exposure has never been examined.Methods: We analyzed data from 10,466 pregnant women who participated in the Tohoku Medical Megabank Project Birth and Three-Generation Cohort Study. Age, education, parity, breastfeeding, postpartum depression, SHS exposure at home, and SHS exposure at work (not working, working without SHS exposure, working with SHS exposure) were evaluated as possible predictors. Multiple logistic regression analyses were conducted to examine the associations between these factors and smoking relapse by 1 year postpartum among women who quit in early pregnancy. Analyses stratified by SHS exposure at home were also conducted.Results: About one-fourth of early-pregnancy quitters had relapsed into smoking by 1 year postpartum. Lower education, multiparity, not breastfeeding, postpartum depression, and SHS exposure at home were associated with increased risks of smoking relapse. Working with SHS exposure was associated with an increased risk of smoking relapse; the multivariate-adjusted odds ratios of working without SHS exposure and working with SHS exposure compared with not working were 1.14 (95% confidence interval [CI], 0.82–1.59) and 2.18 (95% CI, 1.37–3.46), respectively. The significant association of workplace SHS exposure was observed only among women without SHS exposure at home.Conclusion: SHS exposure at work, as well as education, multiparity, breastfeeding, postpartum depression, and SHS exposure at home were associated with postpartum smoking relapse among early-pregnancy quitters.

Background: The present study analyzed the relation of disaster exposure prior to pregnancy with maternal characteristics and obstetric outcomes.Methods: The participants were 13,148 pregnant women recruited from 2013 to 2017. The women were classified into three groups by the severity of housing damage caused by the Great East Japan Earthquake of 2011: group A, house was not destroyed/did not live in the disaster area; group B, half/part of the house was destroyed; and group C, house was totally/mostly destroyed. Maternal characteristics, hypertensive disorders of pregnancy (HDP), gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM), and gestational weeks were obtained using questionnaires and medical records. Multiple logistic regression analyses were performed to investigate the relation between disaster exposure and maternal characteristics, HDP, and GDM. A structural equation model was applied to investigate the relation of disaster exposure with HDP and gestational weeks.Results: The homes of about 11% of the women were totally/mostly destroyed. For groups B and C compared with those in group A, the adjusted ORs for HDP were 1.04 and 1.26 (P for trend = 0.01), and for GDM were 0.89 and 1.14 (P for trend = 0.9), respectively. Pre-pregnancy body mass index (BMI) mediated 23.2% of the relation between disaster exposure and HDP. Disaster exposure was associated with gestational weeks.Conclusion: Disaster exposure at least 2.5 years before pregnancy was found to be associated with maternal characteristics and the prevalence of HDP. Pre-pregnancy BMI mediated the relation between disaster exposure and the prevalence of HDP, and gestational weeks were reduced through HDP.

Background: The Tohoku Medical Megabank Project Birth and Three-Generation Cohort Study was launched in 2013 to evaluate the complex interactions of genetic and environmental factors in multifactorial diseases. The present study describes the maternal baseline profile and perinatal data of participating mothers and infants.Methods: Expectant mothers living in Miyagi Prefecture were recruited from obstetric facilities or affiliated centers between 2013 and 2017. Three sets of self-administered questionnaires were collected, and the medical records were reviewed to obtain precise information about each antenatal visit and each delivery. Biospecimens, including blood, urine, umbilical cord blood, and breast milk, were collected for the study biobank. The baseline maternal sociodemographic characteristics, results of screening tests, and obstetric outcomes were analyzed according to the maternal age group.Results: A total of 23,406 pregnancies involving 23,730 fetuses resulted in 23,143 live births. Younger maternal participants had a tendency toward a higher incidence of threatened abortion and threatened premature labor, while older age groups exhibited a significantly higher rate of low lying placenta, placenta previa, gestational diabetes, and hypertensive disorders of pregnancy.Conclusions: The present study clearly shows the distribution of maternal baseline characteristics and the range of perinatal outcomes according to maternal age group. This cohort study can provide strategic information for creating breakthroughs in the pathophysiology of perinatal, developmental, and noncommunicable diseases by collaborative data visiting or sharing.
