Exposure to passive smoking during pregnancy and childhood, and cancer risk: the epidemiological evidence.

abstract：BACKGROUND:While there is evidence of an association between caesarean birth and increased asthma in children in high-income countries, it is unknown whether this association exists in low-to-middle-income countries (LMICs). We investigated whether children born through caesarean in India and Vietnam are at increased r...
