Assessment, detection, and validation of clinical associations of thirdhand smoke exposure (ADVOCATE) study protocol
This is the first prospective longitudinal study to examine the prevalence of thirdhand smoke exposure in children of nonsmokers. Unlike prior tobacco smoke exposure research, this study will examine the contribution of thirdhand smoke exposure to pediatric health outcomes. Results will provide unique insights into how thirdhand smoke exposure in the absence of secondhand smoke exposure affects the clinical, inflammatory, and oxidative responses in children of nonsmokers.
