This article presents a systematic review of the effects of maternal smoking during pregnancy on obstetric complications, with a specific focus on low birth weight and preterm birth. The review was conducted through a systematic search of scientific articles in the PubMed, Scopus, and Web of Science databases, between the years 2000 and 2023. The results indicate a clear association between maternal smoking and an increased risk of obstetric complications, including low birth weight and preterm birth. These findings underscore the importance of effective interventions to help pregnant women quit smoking during pregnancy, aiming to improve maternal-fetal health outcomes.
