“…In this regard, smoking may be a predisposing factor for abdominal obesity, glucose Our previous results suggested that maternal smoking during pregnancy was significantly associated with childhood obesity [22][23][24] . This association was observed in the second quartile of birthweight 25 . Therefore, the GWG of smoking mothers may compensate for the negative effects of maternal smoking during pregnancy on birthweight.…”

INTRODUCTION In Japan, low birthweight (LBW) of infants is a major public health concern. Gestational weight gain (GWG) may be associated with LBW of infants. On the other hand, maternal smoking during pregnancy is a well-known factor associated with infant birthweight. Thus, this study aimed to examine the effect of maternal smoking during pregnancy on GWG and birthweight stratified by pregestational weight status. METHODS A retrospective cohort study was designed, which included three hospitals of Yamanashi Prefecture, Japan. The study included babies born between 2013 and 2014 from mothers having singleton pregnancies. The outcomes analyzed were GWG (difference between maternal weight measured at prenatal check-up just before delivery and pregestational weight based on information from clinical records) and birthweight of infants stratified by pregestational maternal body mass index (BMI). RESULTS This study included 1150 singleton babies and their mothers. After excluding individuals with incomplete data, the final number of analyzed participants was 1078. The mean maternal age at delivery was 31.3 ± 5.1 years. The mean pregestational BMI was 21.3 ± 3.4 kg/m 2 . The mean GWG was 10.0 ± 4.1 kg. After adjusting for confounding factors, maternal smoking during pregnancy was positively associated with GWG in all categories (underweight: p<0.0001; normal weight: p<0.0001; overweight: p=0.01). Maternal smoking during pregnancy was also significantly associated with lower birthweight in underweight and normal-weight mothers (underweight: p=0.04, normal-weight: p=0.03). CONCLUSIONS Maternal smoking status is significantly associated with higher GWG and lower birthweight. Based on the Developmental Origins of Health and Disease (DOHaD) hypothesis, the growth of infants born from smoking mothers needs close observation.

“…Several efforts have been made to dissociate these comorbid disorders or rank their importance for the development of HS. However, these data might ignore the real-world situation, where obesity and smoking often cooccur in the same person and family members [17][18][19]. For these reasons, we conducted this study to assess the importance of metabolic disorders/obesity, smoking/environmental toxins, and inflammation in HS by utilizing the differential expression of major relevant protein markers in lesional skin of obese/smoking versus non-obese/nonsmoking HS patients.…”

Metabolic Disorders/Obesity Is a Primary Risk Factor in Hidradenitis Suppurativa: An Immunohistochemical Real-World Approach

Background: Hidradenitis suppurativa (HS) is an inflammatory, potentially scarring disease of the hair follicle, affecting the apocrine gland-bearing skin areas. The major comorbid disorders associated with the occurrence or the aggravation of the disease are obesity and smoking. Numerous efforts to dissociate these factors led to controversial results. Objectives: To assess the importance of metabolic disorders/obesity, smoking/environmental toxins, and inflammation in HS by utilizing the differential expression of major relevant protein markers in lesional skin of obese/smoking versus non-obese/non-smoking HS patients. Methods: Lesional skin specimens deriving from two groups of HS patients (BMI >30 and smokers, n = 12 vs. BMI <30 and non-smokers, n = 10) were stained with antibodies raised against irisin, PPARγ, and IGF-1R, which correlate with metabolic disorders/obesity, EGFR and AhR, associated with smoking, and IL-17, IL-17R, and S100A8, as markers of inflammation. Results: Metabolic disorders/obesity-related markers exhibited marked differential expression between the two groups, while smoking-associated markers a limited one. IL-17R expression was stronger in obese/smokers, and S100A8 staining exhibited intense strong immunoreactivity in both groups without significant difference. Conclusions: The notion that obesity plays a role in HS development appears to be supported by the prominent regulation of the associated lesional biomarkers. Tobacco smoking might contribute less to HS than previously suspected.

“…However, previous research has shown significant links between maternal smoking during pregnancy and adverse child growth outcomes, including a higher likelihood of low birth weight and impaired linear growth. [ 30 31 ] Another limitation of the study is the absence of data on breastfeeding habits in the dataset on the possible impact on the observed growth patterns. A prior Jordanian study revealed a low breastfeeding rate, indicating that only 24% of infants were breastfed at 2–3 months of age.…”

BACKGROUND: In 2006, the World Health Organization (WHO) introduced new growth standards based on data derived globally from optimally nourished breastfed infants. The aim of this study was to assess the effects of implementing WHO growth standards on the growth patterns of Jordanian infants. In addition, it was to ascertain the necessity of establishing country-specific growth standards and charts tailored to Jordanian infants. MATERIALS AND METHODS: The data of 102,846 infants (50.1% boys, 49.9% girls) aged 0–24 months, from 115 primary healthcare centers across the country were retrieved from a National E-health Program. Weight and length measurements were analyzed, and age- and sex-specific z-scores were calculated relative to the WHO growth standards. Data was analyzed using SPSS version 26. Mann–Whitney U test was performed to determine significant differences between the measurements for boys and girls in terms of age, length, and weight. RESULTS: Jordanian infants exhibited significantly shorter length-for-age measurements than WHO standards with mean z-scores of −0.56 and −0.38, for boys and girls, respectively. Weight-for-age measurements showed a good fit and were comparable to the WHO growth standards for boys (mean z score = −0.05) and girls (mean z score = 0.04). Notably, Jordanian infants displayed higher weight-for-length measurements, with mean z-scores of 0.51 for boys and 0.47 for girls. CONCLUSION: The availability of Jordanian-specific growth standards will improve the accuracy of assessing infant growth and enhance the monitoring and evaluation of their health and development.
