TY - JOUR AU - Kim, Sooyong AU - Oancea, Sanda Cristina PY - 2020 DA - 2020/09/23 TI - Electronic cigarettes may not be a “safer alternative” of conventional cigarettes during pregnancy: evidence from the nationally representative PRAMS data JO - BMC Pregnancy and Childbirth SP - 557 VL - 20 IS - 1 AB - Conventional cigarette (CC) smoking is one of the most preventable causes of adverse birth outcomes. Although electronic cigarettes (ECs) are considered to be safer than CCs during pregnancy, the evidence is yet to be presented. This study examines the effects of prenatal EC use on neonatal birth outcomes compared to those of CC smokers and complete tobacco abstainers.
