Early life predictors of adolescent smoking: findings from the Mater-University study of pregnancy and its outcomes.

abstract：:We describe the study design and patterns of participation for a cohort study of preterm delivery, focused on genital tract infections, nutrition, tobacco use, illicit drugs and psychosocial stress. Women are recruited at 24-29 weeks' gestation from prenatal clinics at a teaching hospital and a county health departmen...
