Prenatal active or passive tobacco smoke exposure and the risk of preterm delivery or low birth weight.
TL;DR: The data support earlier studies suggesting that prenatal environmental tobacco smoke exposure, in addition to maternal smoking, affects infant health.

TL;DR: In this multisite study, there was substantial agreement regarding pubertal staging between examiners across sites, and the proportion of girls who had breast development at ages 7 and 8 years, particularly among white girls, is greater than that reported from studies ofGirls who were born 10 to 30 years earlier.

TL;DR: Based on population data from 5 countries, the heritability of ASD was estimated to be approximately 80%, indicating that the variation in ASD occurrence in the population is mostly owing to inherited genetic influences, with no support for contribution from maternal effects.
