Prevalence and risk factors of secondhand smoke (SHS) exposure among pregnant women in Mongolia
Abstract This cross-sectional study investigated the prevalence of smoking and secondhand smoking (SHS) among pregnant women in Darkhan-Uul Province, Mongolia, using urinary cotinine (UC) levels, and clarified the factors related to SHS exposure. It targeted pregnant women who underwent antenatal he...
