Outline of Final Research Achievements |
Smoking cessation support for women in their 20s and 30s is crucial for the optimal development of the next generation. The present study aimed to develop and validate biomarker indices of the ill effects of smoking to motivate expectant and nursing mothers to stop smoking. Exploratory study was conducted to evaluate the active/passive smoking-derived cotinine levels and breath CO concentration in maternal blood, urine, and umbilical cord blood between pregnancy period and one-month postpartum checkup. The conditions of labor and delivery were also explored. On the basis of the obtained results, personalized biomarker change indices were created because of the individual differences in the smoking status and cotinine levels in maternal blood, urine, and umbilical cord blood. Future studies should aim to use and validate the effects of these biomarkers for group guidance of women before pregnancy and for individual guidance of smokers.
