“…Maternal lifestyle has been reported that it was closely related with offspring’s behavior and cardiometabolic health ( 6 – 8 ). Large population-based study and prospective cohort study both showed that maternal current lifestyle, such as body weight, smoking, and alcohol drinking, had a strong independent correlation with offspring weight status and blood pressure ( 9 – 12 ).…”

BackgroundThe prevalence of MS among children and adolescents continues to rise, which has become an escalating serious health issue worldwide. It had been reported that maternal current lifestyle had a strong independent correlation with offspring health. However, it is not clear whether comprehensive lifestyle of mother has an impact on the MS risk in offspring and the role of offspring’s lifestyle in it.Methods and ResultsWe included 4,837 mother-child pairs from a multi-centered cross-sectional study conducted in China. The information of maternal lifestyle was obtained by self-reported questionnaire, and metabolic syndrome (MS) in offspring was determined by anthropometric measurements and blood tests. Logistic regression models were employed to evaluate the association between maternal lifestyle and risk of MS in offspring. We found maternal healthy lifestyle was independently associated with lower risk of offspring MS, and the risk of MS in offspring decreased with the increased number of maternal ideal lifestyle factors. Although adolescents’ lifestyle did not fully explain the relationship between maternal lifestyle and risk of offspring MS, compared with those had less ideal lifestyle factors in both mothers and offspring, the risk of offspring MS was lower in those had more ideal lifestyle factors in both mothers and adolescents.ConclusionsHealthy lifestyle in mothers was associated with a lower risk of MS in offspring, which was independent of offspring’s lifestyle. These findings support mother-based lifestyle intervention could be an effective strategy to reduce the MS risk in adolescents.

“…the age of seven tried cigarettes, 39.6% tried shisha, and 50.0% tried smokeless tobacco (16). The most prevalent location for consumption of different tobacco products was at home (16), raising concerns about the role of the family in children's initiation and development of their smoking habit (17). Despite the fact that the legal smoking age in Oman is 18 (18), current epidemiological data reveal insufficient implementation of existing regulations that prohibit the sale of tobacco products to minors, as well as a lack of public awareness of the effects of these products on one's health.…”

Tobacco use remains a leading cause of harm to public health. Despite nearly two decades of ratifying the WHO Framework Convention on Tobacco Control (FCTC), Oman is still striving to achieve the best practice approach in different FCTC measures. Current epidemiological data shows that the prevalence of tobacco use among adults in Oman is steadily increasing with time. This review highlights the progress that has been made in the various FCTC measures, as well as how Oman has the possibility to attain the best practice approach in the various FCTC measures, and even go beyond that by implementing policies that have the potential to achieve a tobacco-free Oman by 2040.

“…Many parents, especially mothers, send their children to purchase tobacco for them. This leads to exposure of children at a very young age resulting in early initiation and addiction on frequent use [Janakiram et al 2019]. Secondly, the consumption by children or youth is found to be without the consent of the guardian or parents.…”

Aim and objective: Tobacco consumption is a leading cause of death, associated with significant health hazards and comprising millions of lives worldwide. India is the third-largest consumer of tobacco in the world; in-spite of adequate control measures taken by the government to cease tobacco consumption. The objective of this review is to highlight the discrepancies in belief, behavior, and knowledge towards tobacco consumption in India. The study also aims to specify factors influencing trends of tobacco consumption and to associate the extent of their influence based on the user’s perception concerning the quality of life. Study design: Review of the literature. Methods: Authors undertook a literature search in the electronic databases EMBASE, Medline, and Scopus with regard to associated disease burden and factors influencing tobacco consumption. Results: According to the review, sociodemographic, economic, personal, environmental, and healthy life indicators are the most influential variables affecting tobacco consumption. This highlights the need for revisiting the tobacco control laws in India, addressing the existing barriers to have significant impacts on the tobacco picture of the country. Although at state-levels, a certain extent of success has been achieved; in-tranquil, national-level non-prioritization of tobaccocontrol still exists. The possible reason might be a lack of awareness about health hazards owing to tobacco use. Conclusion: This dictates to improve health outcomes among individuals by including effective interventions. In all, its mandate to map the current issue of harm reduction framework through research, education, awareness, and implementation of policies for improved quality of life and health.
