The Impact of Maternal/In Utero Exposure of Novel Tobacco Products on the Offspring Cardiovascular Health.

Novel tobacco products (NTPs) have recently been on the rise appealing to a variety of users, including pregnant women and women of childbearing age, who deem these products to be a safe/safer alternative to traditional smoking. To this end, several studies have made advances toward proving the invalidity of these claims, especially in the context of cardiovascular disease. However, an area that has yet to be extensively explored is maternal/in utero exposure to these devices and the cardiovascular health outcomes on the offspring into their adult life. Herein, our aim is to critically assess the literature to identify and discuss the cardiovascular health risks that the offspring exhibits as a result of in utero exposure to NTPs. These studies have been summarized as a comprehensive review.
