To examine the effects of cigarette, marihuana and methamphetamine smoking and consumption of alcohol during pregnancy on maternal serum alpha-fetoprotein (MSAFP) levels at 20-24 weeks.In the Safe Passage Study (SPS) more than 12,000 pregnant women were prospectively followed up during pregnancy and until the infant was one year old to examine the effects of exposure to alcohol during pregnancy on stillbirth and sudden infant death syndrome. The present study is a cross-sectional secondary analysis of MSAFP analyses done at 20-24 weeks gestation in 1,679 SPS participants, recruited at the Bishop Lavis Community Health Centre, Cape Town, South Arica.
Results
Low or moderate alcohol consumption with or without smoking, nor methamphetamine or marihuana use affected mean MSAFP levels. High MSAFP levels were associated with high alcohol consumption, young age, low body mass index (BMI) (<18 kg/m2) or small mid upper arm circumference (MUAC) (<230mm). High MSAFP levels were associated with stillbirth, preterm birth, abruption and a birth weight z-score of less than -1.The study confirms the association between high MSAFP levels and adverse pregnancy outcomes but, although exposure to smoking or drinking is associated with adverse pregnancy outcomes including stillbirth, MSAFP levels were not affected by any of these exposures except for continued high consumption of alcohol. The observed association between higher MSAFP levels and maternal nutritional status (as demonstrated by the lower MUAC and BMI) could explain some of the correlations of poor socioeconomic conditions with higher stillbirth rates effect.
