Yes very likely. But I think they should have more samples for a more accurate study.

Answer:

Yes it is very likely to cause premature births.

Step-by-step explanation:

Smoking has been linked to a diet-related increase in the risks of preterm birth due to premature rupture of membranes and late gestational bleeding. Other products with nicotine can affect the lungs and the brain if a developing fetus. This can also increase the risk of miscarriages.
