The acute effects of smoking on the behaviour of the fetus

Více o knize

The research highlights the critical role of maternal wellbeing on fetal development, particularly focusing on the effects of smoking during pregnancy. It includes three studies that examine both acute and chronic impacts of maternal smoking on fetal behavior at various gestational ages. Findings reveal that smoking has different effects on spontaneous behavior and habituation patterns, with implications suggesting potential neurological impairments that could lead to neuro-behavioral difficulties later in life.
