- Abstract
- BackgroundThe association between exposure to secondhand smoke (SHS) during pregnancy and a child's neurodevelopment has not been established yet. We explored the association between prenatal exposure to SHS and neurodevelopment at 24months of age considering genetic polymorphism and breastfeeding in 720 mothers and their offspring enrolled in the Korean multicenter birth cohort study (Mothers and Children Environmental Health, MOCEH).MethodsWe quantified urine cotinine concentrations in mothers once from 12th to 20th gestational weeks and excluded those whose urine cotinine levels exceeded 42.7ng/ml to represent SHS exposure in early pregnancy. Mental developmental index (MDI) and psychomotor developmental index (PDI) values were measured using the Korean version of the Bayley Scales of Infant Development II (K-BSID-II) at 24months of age. A general linear model was used to assess the relationship between maternal urinary cotinine level and neurodevelopment.ResultsMDI scores were inversely associated with cotinine [=-2.73; 95% confidence interval (CI): -5.32 to -0.15] in children whose mothers had early pregnancy urinary cotinine levels >1.90ng/ml. No association was evident in children whose mothers had cotinine levels 1.90ng/ml. This negative association was more pronounced in children whose mothers had both Glutathione S-transferases mu 1 (GSTM1) and theta 1 (GSTT1) null type [=-5.78; 95% CI: -10.69 to -0.87], but not in children whose mothers had any present type of GSTM1/GSTT1 [=-1.64; 95% CI: -4.79 to 1.52]. The association was no longer significant when children received breast milk exclusively for up to 6months [=-0.24; 95% CI: -4.69 to 4.20] compared to others [=-3.75; 95% CI: -7.51 to 0.00]. No significant association was found for PDI.ConclusionsMaternal exposure to SHS during pregnancy may result in delayed MDI in early childhood. This effect might be modified by genetic polymorphism and breastfeeding behavior.
