Smoking and snuff use in pregnancy and the risk of asthma and wheeze in pre–schoolchildren—A population‐based register study

We saw an association between SDP and asthma at early age. The association with snuff was clearly weaker. The associations with SDP were attenuated when adjusting for measured and unmeasured familial factors shared by siblings. Based on those results, nicotine seems to have a limited role in the association between SDP and asthma; rather environmental tobacco smoke and other familial factors seem to explain observed associations.
