a

Odds ratio of maternal smoking during the first trimester of pregnancy estimated by frequency-weighted logistic regression, using the probability distribution of possible haplotypes for each mother as predicted by HAPLIN from the offspring-parent trios.

b

Haplotypes of rs1435252-rs3780422-rs2779562 for GABBR2; rs2060762-rs3757472-rs1451371-rs3735273-rs921451 for DDC; and of rs4522666-rs1044393 for CHRNA4.

c

With maternal smoking during the first trimester of pregnancy included as an adjustment variable in the analysis.

**

Using the most frequent haplotype for each gene as reference.

***

Effect of smoking vs. no-smoking.
