Abstract
Introduction As the leading cause of preventable chronic diseases in adults 18 years and older, tobacco usage in the U.S. results in over 20 million premature deaths annually. Current smokers might need extra support on the path to successfully quitting. Aim To evaluate the influence of predictors of smoking-on-smoking cessation in the Freedom From Tobacco Program (FFT) offered by Southern California Permanente Medical Group (SCPMG). Methods This was a quasi-experimental study to evaluate rates of smoking cessation among participants in the FFT program. There were 471 participants in the study. Factors of the Social Ecological Model (SEM) and demographics were examined to determine if they could predict tobacco cessation. The SEM suggests that an individual's behavior is integrated into a network of intrapersonal characteristics, interpersonal processes, institutional factors, community features, and public policy. In particular, the study mainly addressed the institutional factor. It was promoted within a Health Management Organization and the interpersonal process because it was a group intervention. Findings After multiple regression analyses with all predictors from the SEM and demographics, the only significant predictor was the number of previous attempts to quit. Smokers who tried to stop four or more times in the past were 2.6 times (p<0.03) more likely to quit than those who tried fewer times. As we are aware, this was the first time this result was found for programs implemented by Health Management Organizations. The general quit rate at 12 months for the FFT program was 43.1%. Conclusion As the only predictor of quitting in this study was the number of previous attempts to quit smoking, the recommendation is to develop longer-term smoking cessation programs or a longer follow-up to facilitate smokers who relapse to go back and try to quit again. Another recommendation is to identify the main reasons for relapse and try to address these factors in further interventions.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE The objective of this review was twofold: (i) to comprehensively identify the best available evidence about the experiences of women who smoked tobacco during pregnancy or postnatally (or both) concerning health care providers' interactions with them about their smoking, when such interactions occurred during contact for prenatal or postnatal health care in any health care setting; and (ii) to synthesize the research findings for recommendations to strengthen health care providers' interventions regarding smoking during pregnancy and smoking during the postnatal period. INTRODUCTION Maternal tobacco smoking during pregnancy and maternal tobacco smoking postnatally pose serious health risks for the woman, fetus, and offspring, whereas maternal smoking cessation has beneficial health effects. Given the importance of health care providers' interactions with pregnant and postnatal women for smoking cessation care, it is essential to understand women's experiences of such interactions. INCLUSION CRITERIA Studies considered for this review had qualitative research findings about the experiences of women who smoked tobacco during pregnancy or postnatally (or both) in relation to health care providers' interactions with them about their smoking. METHODS The review was conducted using the JBI approach to qualitative systematic reviews. Published studies were sought through 6 academic databases (eg, CINAHL, MEDLINE). Unpublished studies were searched in 6 gray literature sources (eg, ProQuest Dissertations and Theses, Google Scholar). Reference lists of retrieved records were also searched. The searches occurred in October and November 2020; no country, language, or date limits were applied. Study selection involved title and abstract screening, full-text examination, and critical appraisal of all studies that met the inclusion criteria for the review. Study characteristics and research findings were extracted from the included studies. Study selection and extraction of findings were conducted by two reviewers independently; differences between reviewers were resolved through consensus. The research findings were categorized, and the categories were aggregated into a set of synthesized findings. The synthesized finding were assigned confidence scores. The categories and finalized synthesized findings were agreed upon by all reviewers. RESULTS The 57 included studies varied in qualitative research designs and in methodological quality (from mostly low to high). There were approximately 1092 eligible participants, and 250 credible and unequivocal research findings. The research findings yielded 14 categories and 6 synthesized findings with low to very low confidence scores. Some women who smoked tobacco during pregnancy and some women who smoked tobacco postnatally lacked supportive interactions by health care providers regarding their smoking; other women experienced supportive interactions by health care providers. Women were adversely impacted when health care providers' interactions lacked supportiveness, and were beneficially impacted when interactions were supportive. Women varied in openness to health care providers' interactions regarding their smoking, from not being receptive to being accepting, and some women wanted meaningful health care provider interactions. CONCLUSIONS Although confidence in the synthesized findings is low to very low, the evidence indicates that supportive health care provider interactions may facilitate positive smoking behavior change in pregnancy and postnatally. It is recommended that health care providers implement accepted clinical practice guidelines with women who smoke prenatally or postnatally, using an approach that is person-centered, emotionally supportive, engaging (eg, understanding), and non-authoritarian.

Abstract
Background Maternal tobacco smoking during pregnancy is associated with adverse health effects for the woman, fetus, and child, including such serious effects as preterm birth, low birth weight, stillbirth, and neonatal and sudden infant death. Smoking cessation during pregnancy reduces health risks. Purpose In order to support pregnant women to quit smoking, it is essential to know determinants of quitting smoking in pregnancy. The purpose of this research was to examine women's understanding of maternal smoking, in terms of their beliefs, in relation to quitting smoking during pregnancy. Methods The study was a cross-sectional survey with anonymous questionnaires. The sample consisted of 161 pregnant and postnatal women who were continuing or had continued to smoke during pregnancy or had quit smoking during pregnancy. Logistic regression was used to determine the impact of women's understanding of maternal smoking on quitting smoking in pregnancy. Results A large majority of the women had low to moderate understanding of maternal smoking. Those with higher levels of understanding were more likely to quit smoking during pregnancy than were those with a low level of understanding. Not having children prior to the current pregnancy or childbirth also increased the likelihood of quitting smoking during pregnancy while being without a partner combined with having a longer duration of smoking decreased the likelihood of quitting smoking during pregnancy. Conclusion As a modifiable factor, pregnant women's understanding of maternal smoking can be readily targeted with informational interventions in an effort to help them quit smoking.

Abstract
While deaths from pneumonia during childhood in New Zealand (NZ) are now infrequent, childhood pneumonia remains a significant cause of morbidity. In this viewpoint, we describe pneumonia epidemiology in NZ and identify modifiable risk factors. During recent decades, pneumonia hospitalisation rates decreased, attributable in part to inclusion of pneumococcal conjugate vaccine in NZ's immunisation schedule. Irrespective of these decreases, pneumonia hospitalisation rates are four times higher for Pacific and 60% higher for Māori compared with children of other ethnic groups. Consistent with other developed countries, hospitalisation rates for pneumonia with pleural empyema increased in NZ during the 2000s. Numerous factors contribute to childhood pneumonia acquisition, hospitalisation and morbidity in NZ include poor quality living environments, malnutrition during pregnancy and early childhood, incomplete and delayed vaccination during pregnancy and childhood and variable primary and secondary care management. To reduce childhood pneumonia disease burden, interventions should focus on addressing modifiable risk factors for pneumonia. These include using non-polluting forms of household heating; decreasing cigarette smoke exposure; reducing household acute respiratory infection transmission; improving dietary nutritional content and nutrition during pregnancy and early childhood; breastfeeding promotion; vaccination during pregnancy and childhood and improving the quality of and decreasing the variance in primary and secondary care management of pneumonia.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE The objective of this review is to comprehensively identify and synthesize the best available evidence about the experiences of women who smoked tobacco during pregnancy or postnatally (or both) concerning their health care providers' interactions with them about their smoking. INTRODUCTION Smoking tobacco during pregnancy and postnatally continue to be important global public health challenges. Maternal smoking poses risks to the woman's general health and causes pregnancy complications and serious adverse health effects for the fetus and child. Hence, it is essential that health care providers support pregnant and postnatal women to achieve smoking cessation and not relapse. Learning about these women's experiences of health care provider interactions may inform recommendations for health care provider best practice in interpersonal approach. INCLUSION CRITERIA The participants of interest are women who smoked tobacco during pregnancy, the postnatal period, or both, with the phenomenon of interest being their experiences of health care provider interactions with them about their smoking. The context is any setting globally. Studies for consideration will have qualitative data, including any mixed methods studies. METHODS This qualitative systematic review will be conducted according to JBI methodology. Databases to be searched for published studies include CINAHL, PubMed, APA PsycINFO, Embase, Sociological Abstracts, and SocINDEX. Gray literature will be searched for unpublished studies. The authors will conduct an initial screening and then a full-text review of studies for congruence with the inclusion criteria. A critical appraisal will be performed on eligible studies and data will be extracted from included studies. Meta-aggregation will be used to yield synthesized findings, which will be assigned confidence scores. SYSTEMATIC REVIEW REGISTRATION NUMBER PROSPERO CRD42020178866.

Abstract
Maternal smoking during pregnancy and maternal smoking postnatally are important public health concerns worldwide. Smoking adversely affects the woman's general health and is causally related to pregnancy complications and serious health outcomes for the child, such as stillbirth, preterm delivery, low birth weight, and sudden infant death. The purpose of this research was to examine maternal smoking through a quantitative descriptive survey of 164 women, 120 who were pregnant and 44 who were postnatal. Women experienced barriers to quitting smoking, including dealing with stress, being exposed to smokers, not being ready to quit, not knowing how to quit, not looking for or not being able to find information about smoking or quitting smoking, and lacking adequate social and healthcare provider support. On the other hand, women revealed characteristics that suggest they might have had improved potential for quitting smoking, including having negative feelings about smoking, having cut down on smoking, smoking at a low level, having made quit attempts, thinking it would not be hard to quit smoking, being in the preparation stage of behavioral change, and thinking their healthcare providers (HCPs) would help them if they decided to quit. Taken together, those findings suggest that HCPs could offer important assistance to help women achieve smoking cessation. However, more research needs to be conducted to clarify the role and effectiveness of various HCPs in smoking cessation interventions and to identify measures to strengthen their provision of such interventions.

Abstract
According to the 2016 National Perinatal Survey, 30.0 % of women smoked before pregnancy, 45.8 % quit smoking in the 1st or 2nd trimester. Many do this only for pregnancy and the risk of postpartum relapse is high (up to 82 % at 1 year). The main factors associated with postpartum abstinence are breastfeeding, not having a smoker at home, and having no symptoms of postpartum depression. No drug treatment can be recommended to prevent the smoking postpartum relapse. Only global counseling can prevent this risk.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Maternal smoking is associated with a number of adverse outcomes with a dose-dependent increase in risk. The aim of this study was to evaluate the obstetric and perinatal outcomes in women who smoked during pregnancy. METHODS This was a retrospective cohort study of women who smoked during pregnancy and birthed at a major perinatal centre in Australia between January 2000 and April 2017. The study cohort was compared to a cohort of women who did not smoke in pregnancy. Smoking status was ascertained on history and included all types of smoking. Demographic characteristics and obstetric, intrapartum and perinatal outcomes were compared between the two groups. RESULTS The study cohort included 20 477 (14.6%) women who smoked during pregnancy and 119 396 controls. Women who smoked tended to be younger, of higher body mass index (BMI), Caucasian and Indigenous ethnicity. Smokers were less likely to be nulliparous, but more likely to be hypertensive and have a lower socioeconomic status compared to non-smokers. Women who smoked were more likely to have a caesarean section for non-reassuring fetal status (adjusted odds ratio (aOR) 1.16, 95%CI 1.07-1.26, P < 0.001). The infants of women who smoked were more likely to be born preterm, have a lower median birth weight and birth weights <10th (aOR 1.76, 95%CI 1.66-1.86, P < 0.001) and <5th centile (aOR 2.00, 95%CI 1.86-2.16, P < 0.001). Neonatal outcomes in the smoking cohort were worse with an increase in neonatal intensive care unit admission (aOR 1.34, 95%CI 1.27-1.43, P < 0.001), severe acidosis (aOR 1.41, 95%CI 1.27-1.43, P < 0.001) and a composite of severe neonatal outcomes (18.0% vs 12.0%, aOR 1.35, 95%CI 1.28-1.43, P < 0.001). CONCLUSION Women who smoke in pregnancy have worse obstetric and perinatal outcomes compared to controls and should be managed as high risk.
