AbstractObjectiveTo study whether the dietary patterns of Finnish pregnant women are associated with their weight gain rate during pregnancy.DesignA validated 181-item FFQ was applied retrospectively to assess the diet during the eighth month of pregnancy, and maternal height and maternal weight at first and last antenatal visits were recalled. Information on sociodemographic characteristics, parity and smoking of the pregnant women was obtained by a structured questionnaire and from the Finnish Birth Registry. Principal components analysis was used to identify dietary patterns that described the diet of pregnant women based on their food consumption profile.SettingFinland.SubjectsSubjects consisted of 3360 women who had newly delivered in 1997–2002 and whose baby carried human leucocyte antigen-conferred susceptibility to type 1 diabetes in two university hospital regions, Oulu and Tampere, in Finland.ResultsOut of seven dietary patterns identified, the ‘fast food’ pattern was positively associated (β = 0·010, se = 0·003, P = 0·004) and the ‘alcohol and butter’ pattern was inversely associated (β = –0·010, se = 0·003, P < 0·0001) with weight gain rate (kg/week) during pregnancy after adjusting for potential dietary, perinatal and sociodemographic confounding factors. Both of the dietary pattern associations demonstrated dose dependency.ConclusionsPregnant women should be guided to have a well-planned, balanced, healthy diet during pregnancy in order to avoid rapid gestational weight gain. The association between diet, health and maternal weight gain of the women who consumed alcohol during pregnancy should be studied further.

In this paper, the corrosion behavior was researched which was happen on the 304,321,316Lect. stainless steel materials in the analogue situation of calcining gas atmosphere of ammonium paramolybdate.The oxidized etch which happened on the sample’s surface, phase constituent and element content of the fracture surface, was analyzed by the means of SEM、XRD.The results showed that the phases of Fe2(MoO4)3,MoO3,MoO2.5(OH)0.5,Cr2O3,Cr2Ti5O13, Fe2O3,Fe3O4 ect. are contained on the surfaces of the 304,316L, 321 samples which are calcined. There is an inside oxidized corrosion layer in 304 316L. The oxidizing film is damaged and the oxygen penetrates into the base to form an oxidized layer. A thin and compact oxidation film was formed between 321 corrosion layer and the alloy interface, which have prevented the base from further corrosion, under this experiment conditions, this steel belonged to the inoxidizability materials. The coating deficiency of 321 steel is shallow; the particles of oxidate is thin and without inner corrosion; the weight gain rate of oxidized etch is slow (average rate 5.2×10-2mg/ (cm2•h)), the weight gain is less and corrosion resistance is fine.

Abstract Background: This paper investigated how second and third trimester gestational weight gain relates toperinatal outcomes among normal weight women with twin pregnancies in Fujian, China. Methods: A retrospective study on the medical records of 931 normal weight twin pregant women was conducted in Fujian Maternity and Child Health Hospital from 2014 to 2018.The 2nd and 3rd trimester weekly weight gain rate were calculated and categorized women as gaining below, within, or above the 2009 Institute of Medicine (IOM) recommended rates . The association between trimester-specific weight gain rate and perinatal outcome was performed by traditional regression analysis among groups.Results:A total of 931 pregnant women and 1862 neonates were included for analysis. 25.9% ,19.8% and 54.3%% of women had less than, greater than and within the recommended rates of gain in the 2nd and 3rd trimester, respectively. Multivariate Logistic regression analysis showed that greater than recommended rates of weight gain in 2nd trimester decreased the risks of preeclampsia (adjusted OR:0.458,95% CI:0.255~0.824). Less than recommended rates of weight gain in 3rd trimester increased the risk of premature delivery（adjusted OR=1.926,95%CI:1.403~2.644）, gestational diabetes mellitus (adjusted OR = 2.052,95%CI:1.417~2.972), intrahepatic cholestasis syndrome (adjusted OR = 3.016,95%CI:1.057~8.606), premature rupture of the membrane (adjusted OR = 1.722,95%CI:1.180~2.512) and neonatal respiratory distress syndrome (adjusted OR = 5.135,95%CI:1.701~15.498) and decreased the risk of cesarean section (adjusted OR = 0.587,95%CI:0.385~0.893) .In addition, greater than recommended rates of weight gain in 3rd trimester was associated with increased risks in premature delivery (adjusted OR=1.818,95%CI:1.307~2.527), and gestational hypertension (adjusted OR=2.098,95%CI:1.018~4.324) as well as preeclampsia(adjusted OR:2.029, 95%CI:1.331~3.093). The stratified analysis of weight gain in 3rd trimester showed that there was no significant difference in the incidence of adverse pregnancy outcomes compared to weight gain rate groups in 2nd trimester.Conclusions: While this study showed gestational weight gain rate less than or greater than in 3rd trimester were associated with some adverse maternal and neonatal outcomes, further studies of prospective and multi-center researches are required to explore alternate ranges of gestational weight gain rate in twin pregnancies.

Several epidemiologic studies have shown an association between Gestational Weight Gain (GWG) and offspring complications. The GWG is directly linked to maternal dietary intake and women’s nutritional status during pregnancy. The aim of this study was (1) to assess, in a sample of Spanish pregnant women, the association between maternal dietary patterns and GWG and (2) to assess maternal dietary patterns and nutrient adequate intake according to GWG. A retrospective study was conducted in a sample of 503 adult pregnant women in five hospitals in Eastern Andalusia (Spain). Data on demographic characteristics, anthropometric values, and dietary intake were collected from clinical records by trained midwives. Usual food intake was gathered through a validated Food Frequency Questionnaire (FFQ), and dietary patterns were obtained by principal component analysis. Nutrient adequacy was defined according to European dietary intake recommendations for pregnant women. Regression models adjusted by confounding factors were constructed to study the association between maternal dietary pattern and GWG, and maternal dietary patterns and nutritional adequacy. A negative association was found between GWG and the Mediterranean dietary pattern (crude β = −0.06, 95% CI: −0.11, −0.04). Independent of maternal dietary pattern, nutrient adequacy of dietary fiber, vitamin B9, D, E, and iodine was related to a Mediterranean dietary pattern (p < 0.05). A Mediterranean dietary pattern is related to lower GWG and better nutrient adequacy. The promotion of healthy dietary behavior consistent with the general advice promoted by the Mediterranean Diet (based on legumes, vegetables, nuts, olive oil, and whole cereals) will offer healthful, sustainable, and practical strategies to control GWG and ensure adequate nutrient intake during pregnancy.

A few importers of marine products have practiced the fraud of artificially injecting water into Octopus minor for increasing their weights prior to the freezing process. These rampant practices have recently become a serious social issue and threaten public health. Therefore, it is necessary to develop the detection method for artificially water-injected frozen Octopus minor. This study was conducted to develop the nondestructive method for verifying adulterated Octopus minor by measuring dielectric properties using the coaxial probe method. Regardless of weight and measurement locations, a significant difference between ε values from normal octopuses was not observed. The ε values of Octopus minor were decreased in the microwave frequency range between 500 and 3000 MHz. The ε values of water-injected octopuses also showed similar trend with normal octopuses; however, the dielectric loss factor (ε″) values of adulterated octopuses were much lower than normal octopuses. After thawing normal, adulterated, and imported frozen Octopus minor, the ε values measured at the trunk part from these octopuses were compared and statistically analyzed. The ε″ values from normal frozen octopus were significantly different from adulterated and imported frozen octopuses. In addition, the ε″ values from the adulterated frozen octopus group that weight gain rate was less than 20% was significantly different from other adulterated octopus groups with higher weight gain rate than 20%. The ε″ values from adulterated frozen octopus groups with the range of weight gain rate between 20 and 30% were quite similar to imported frozen octopuses. Therefore, it was found that the measurement of ε″ values from Octopus minor has a great possibility to distinguish normal frozen octopuses and artificially water-injected frozen octopuses.

Abstract Background The results of some studies have indicated the association between food insecurity and certain adverse pregnancy outcomes. The present study aimed to investigate the prevalence of food insecurity in pregnant women and its association with pregnancy outcomes and complications. Methods The present cross-sectional study was conducted on 772 mothers who visited comprehensive health service centers during the first 10 days after delivery in 2018. The tools included the demographic and midwifery information questionnaire and an 18-item questionnaire devised by the U.S. Department of Agriculture. The significance level was considered to be 0.05. Results 67.5% of pregnant women had food insecurity. The multivariate analysis showed that birth weight decreased with the increase in the severity of food insecurity, but the reduction was not statistically significant. Based on the results, food insecurity had no statistically significant impact on the mothers’ weight gain pattern (p = 0.13). The risk of hypertension/preeclampsia and anemia was not related to food insecurity. Compared with the food-secure group, the probability of gestational diabetes was 56% lower in the food-insecure group without hunger and 61% lower in the food-insecure group with moderate hunger; however, in the food-insecure group with severe hunger, this probability was 1.5 times more than the food-secure group, which is not statistically significant. Conclusions The prevalence of food insecurity was high in pregnant women. Maternal weight gains during pregnancy and birth weight (despite being statistically insignificant) were affected by this condition; therefore, it is necessary to identify women with food insecurity on their first pregnancy visit; it is also crucial to take steps towards improving their health through allocating a family food basket and nutritional support for these women at least during pregnancy. Due to the limited sample size and inability to control the potential confounders, the association between food insecurity during pregnancy and the incidence of pregnancy complications could not be reached, hence the need for more studies.

AbstractThe aim of this study was to evaluate the association of dietary patterns (DP) with maternal adiposity indicators, leptin, adiponectin and insulin concentrations during pregnancy. A prospective cohort of pregnant women followed up at the 5th–13th, 20th –26th and 30th–36th gestational weeks and 30–40 d postpartum was conducted in Rio de Janeiro. A FFQ was administered in the third trimester (30th–36th gestational weeks). The reduced rank regression procedure was used to identify DP that explain response variables (dietary fibre and total fat) related to indicators of maternal adiposity (postpartum weight retention and gestational weight gain (GWG) adequacy), and plasma leptin, adiponectin and insulin concentrations. The associations between tertiles of DP and the outcomes were determined using logistic regression or longitudinal linear mixed-effect regression models. The mean daily energy intake during pregnancy was 10 104 (sd 3234) kJ (2415 (sd 773) kcal), and GWG was 11·9 (sd 4·2) kg. In all, 40 % of women presented pre-gestational overweight/obesity. Excessive GWG occurred in 34·7 % of pregnant women and 56·6 % were overweight/obese at postpartum. The ‘common-Brazilian’ DP (characterised by higher intake of beans, rice and lower intake of fast food/snacks, candies/table sugar and processed meats/bacon) was positively associated with adiponectin (β=1·07; 95 % CI 0·17, 1·98). The ‘Western’ DP (characterised by higher intake of fast food/snacks and processed meat/bacon and lower intake of noodles/pasta/roots/tubers and sodas) was negatively associated with adiponectin (β=−1·11; 95 % CI −2·00, −0·22) and positively associated with leptin concentrations (β=64·9; 95 % CI 22·8, 107·0) throughout pregnancy. It may be suggested that the ‘common-Brazilian’ is a healthy DP and beneficial for serum concentrations of adiponectin and leptin.
