Resting Energy

Resting energy expenditure (REE) comprises 60% of total energy expenditure and variations may be associated with gestational weight gain (GWG) or maternal diet. The objective of this study was to examine the impact of metabolic tracking on GWG and the association with maternal macronutrients. Pregnant women aged 29.8 ± 4.9 years (78.6% non-Hispanic, White) with gestational age (GA) < 17 week were randomized to Breezing™ (n = 16) or control (n = 12) groups for 13 weeks. REE by Breezing™ indirect calorimetry, anthropometrics and dietary intake were collected every two weeks. Early (14–21 weeks), late (21–28 weeks), and overall (14–28 weeks) changes in macronutrients and GWG were calculated. The Breezing™ group had a significantly greater rate of GWG [F (1,23) = 6.8, p = 0.02] in the latter half of the second trimester. Late (−155.3 ± 309.2 vs. 207.1 ± 416.5 kcal, p = 0.01) and overall (−143.8 ± 339.2 vs. 191.8 ± 422.2 kcal, p = 0.03) changes in energy consumption were significantly different between Breezing™ and control groups, respectively. Early changes in REE were positively correlated with overall changes in carbohydrates (r = 0.58, p = 0.02). Regular metabolism tracking alone did not have an impact on GWG. Early shifts in REE might impact GWG later in pregnancy. Investigation in a larger population from preconception through postpartum is needed.

Abstract Background: Resting energy expenditure (REE) comprises 60% of total energy expenditure and variations may be associated with gestational weight gain (GWG) or maternal diet. The objective of this study was to examine the impact of ambulatory metabolic tracking on GWG and the association with maternal macronutrient composition during mid-pregnancy. Methods: Pregnant women aged 29.8±4.9 yr (78.6% non-Hispanic, White) with gestational ages (GA) < 17 wk were randomized to Breezing™ (N=16) or control (N=12) groups for 13 wks. REE by Breezing™ indirect calorimetry, anthropometrics and dietary intake were collected every two weeks. Early (GA weeks 14-21), late (GA weeks 21-28), and overall (GA week 14-28) changes in macronutrients and GWG were calculated. Results: Overall total and rate of GWG did not differ by group but Breezing™ women had lower rate and total GWG in the beginning of the second trimester but gained significantly more weight [F(1,24)=5.29, p=0.03] in the latter half. Independent of group assignment, early increases in REE were associated with an increased rate of GWG later in pregnancy (r=0.53, p=0.05). Dietary intake did not differ by group at baseline; however, overall energy (-144±339 vs. 192±422, p=0.03) and protein (-10±24 vs. 13±31, p=0.05) intake were significantly lower for the Breezing than the control women which primarily occurred in the latter half of the second trimester. Conclusion: Regular metabolism tracking alone did not have an impact on GWG. Assessment of REE during pregnancy in conjunction with nutritional counseling or education may result in improvements in GWG.

The Impact

This study aimed to evaluate the impact of selected pregnancy pathologies statistically depending on overweight/obesity and excessive maternal weight gain during pregnancy on women who gave birth in the years 2013–2015 at the Second Department of Gynecology and Obstetrics at the University Hospital in Bratislava, Slovakia. In a retrospective study, we analyzed data gathered from the sample, which consisted of 7122 women. Our results suggest a statistically significant, higher risk for the groups of women with overweight and obesity and gestational hypertension (adjusted odds ratio (AOR) = 15.3; 95% CI 9.0−25.8 for obesity), preeclampsia (AOR = 3.4; 95% CI 1.9−6.0 for overweight and AOR = 13.2; 95% CI 7.7−22.5 for obesity), and gestational diabetes mellitus (AOR = 1.9; 95% CI 1.2−2.9 for overweight and AOR = 2.4; 95% CI 1.4−4.0 for obesity). A higher incidence of pregnancies terminated by cesarean section was observed in the group of obese women. Gestational weight gain above IOM (Institute of Medicine) recommendations was associated with a higher risk of pregnancy terminated by C-section (AOR = 1.2; 95% CI 1.0−1.3), gestational hypertension (AOR = 1.7; 95% CI 1.0−2.7), and infant macrosomia (AOR = 1.7; 95% CI 1.3−2.1). Overweight and obesity during pregnancy significantly contribute to the development of pregnancy pathologies and increased incidence of cesarean section. Systematic efforts to reduce weight before pregnancy through prepregnancy dietary counseling, regular physical activity, and healthy lifestyle should be the primary goal.

Abstract Objectives Resting energy expenditure (REE) comprises 60% of total energy expenditure and variations may be associated with gestational weight gain (GWG). There is a paucity of research investigating the relationship between REE and GWG. We investigated variations in REE and dietary composition throughout the second trimester and their association with GWG. Methods In this controlled trial, pregnant women (N = 16, mean age of 29.9 ± 4.3 years) with a gestational age < 17 weeks used the Breezing™ device for 13 weeks. This device is a real-time metabolism tracker that measures REE via indirect calorimetry. Height, weight, REE, and dietary intake via 24-hr recall were assessed every 2 weeks. Rate of GWG was calculated as weight gain divided by number of study weeks. Early (EC, GA wks 14–21), late (LC, GA wks 21–28), and overall (OC, GA wks 14–28) changes in macronutrient composition, REE, and GWG were used to evaluate time-specific associations. Group differences were analyzed using a General Linear Model in SPSS Version 25. Results Among the 16 participants, 25% of women were normal weight, 50% were overweight, and 25% were obese at study start. Women had a total and rate of GWG of 8.1 ± 2.9 kg and 0.6 ± 0.2 kg/wk, respectively. REE increased 72 ± 211 kcals/d during the early period, 121 ± 294 kcals/d during the late period, and 200 ± 316 kcals/d overall (from 1544 ± 237 kcal/d to 1744 ± 384 kcal/d). Early changes in REE were significantly correlated with the late changes in total (r = 0.52, P = 0.04) and rate of weight gain (r = 0.54, P = 0.03). A correlation between overall changes in REE and total weight gain was moderate and approached significance, r = 0.44, P = 0.09. Changes in total energy, fat, carbohydrate, and protein intake were not correlated with changes in REE; however, a moderate relationship between early changes in REE and overall changes in energy intake approached significance, r = 0.46, P = 0.07. Changes in GWG and REE did not differ among normal, overweight, or obese women (EC: F(2,15) = 0.36, P = 0.70; LC: F(2,15) = 2.37, P = 0.13; OC: F(2.15) = 1.27, P = 0.31). Conclusions Early changes in REE demonstrated a moderate, positive correlation with total and rate of GWG suggesting that assessment of REE early in pregnancy may help understand changes in GWG. Future research that evaluates both REE and dietary composition throughout pregnancy may provide insight into appropriate GWG. Funding Sources Project HoneyBee, Arizona State University.

Abstract Background. Obesity and gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM) are associated to increased risk of perinatal complications and obesity in the offspring. However, the impact of gestational weight gain (GWG) on maternal and fetal outcomes has led to controversial results. Research design and methods. Retrospective study of 220 women with GDM and pre-pregnancy body mass index (BMI) ≥ 30 kg/m2. Pregnant women were classified according to the Institute of Medicine (IOM) recommendations regarding prior BMI and GWG. We evaluated the impact of GWG on birth weight and perinatal outcomes. Results. Mean maternal age was 34.7±5.3 years. Pre-pregnancy obesity was classified as grade I in 55.3% of cases, grade II in 32.0%, and grade III in 12.7%. GWG was adequate (5-9kg) in 24.2%, insufficient (< 5kg) in 41.8% and excessive (> 9kg) in 34.2%. Birthweight was within normal range in 81.9%, 3.6% were small for gestational age (SGA) and 14.4% were large for gestational age (LGA). Insufficient GWG was associated to a higher rate of SGA offspring, excessive GWG was associated to LGA and adequate GWG to normal birth weight. Conclusion. GWG in women with pre-pregnancy obesity and GDM impacts neonatal birthweight. Insufficient GWG is associated to SGA and excessive GWG is associated to LGA. Women with adequate GWG according to IOM guidelines obtained better perinatal outcomes.
