Maternal nutritional status during pregnancy is an important determinant of fetal growth. Although the effects of several nutrients and foods have been well examined, little is known about the relationship of overall maternal diet in pregnancy to fetal growth, particularly in non-Western populations. We prospectively examined the relationship of maternal dietary patterns in pregnancy to neonatal anthropometric measurements at birth and risk of small-for-gestational-age (SGA) birth among 803 Japanese women with live-born, singleton, term deliveries. Maternal diet in pregnancy was assessed using a validated, self-administered diet history questionnaire. Dietary patterns from thirty-three predefined food groups (g/4184 kJ) were extracted by cluster analysis. The following three dietary patterns were identified: the ‘meat and eggs’ (n 326), ‘wheat products’, with a relatively high intake of bread, confectioneries and soft drinks (n 303), and ‘rice, fish and vegetables’ (n 174) patterns. After adjustment for potential confounders, women in the ‘wheat products’ pattern had infants with the significantly lowest birth weight (P = 0·045) and head circumference (P = 0·036) among those in the three dietary patterns. Compared with women in the ‘rice, fish and vegetables’ pattern, women in the ‘wheat products’ pattern had higher odds of having a SGA infant for weight (multivariate OR 5·2, 95 % CI 1·1, 24·4), but this was not the case for birth length or head circumference. These results suggest that a diet high in bread, confectioneries, and soft drinks and low in fish and vegetables during pregnancy might be associated with a small birth weight and an increased risk of having a SGA infant.

AbstrakPertumbuhan janin intrauterin sangat menentukan berat bayi lahir. Banyak faktor yang dapat mempengaruhi berat bayi lahir, salah satunya adalah status gizi janin.Untuk mencapai status gizi yang diharapkan, ibu hamil harus mencapai penambahan berat badan yang ideal. Tujuan penelitian ini adalah untuk mengetahui hubungan pertambahan berat badan ibu hamil terhadap berat bayi lahir di kota Pariaman. Metode penelitian adalah analitik yang dilakukan di kota Pariaman dengan menggunakan data ibu melahirkan bulan Januari-Juni 2011. Ada 95 sampel yang digunakan dalam penelitian ini, didapatkan jumlah terbanyak pertambahan berat badan ibu pada range < 10 kg, yaitu sebanyak 39 orang dengan rerata 7,46 kg (± 1,274 SD) sedangkan berat badan yang >12,3 kg didapatkan 27 orang dengan rerata 17,39 kg (± 5,792 SD). Secara keseluruhan pertambahan berat badan ibu rerata dalam rentang normal, yaitu 11,29 kg (± 5,194 SD). Bayi dengan berat badan lahir rendah (≤ 2,5 kg) sebanyak 2 bayi (2,1%) dengan berat rerata 2,350 gram (± 0,2121 SD) sedangkan berat badan normal (>2,5 – 4 kg) adalah 92 bayi atau 96,8% dengan berat rerata 3,176 gram (± 0,3339 SD). Secara keseluruhan berat bayi lahir rratae yang didapatkan adalah 3,169 kg (± 0,3661 SD). Berdasarkan hasil uji korelasi, didapatkan r = 0,103 dan p = 0,323 (>0,05). Disimpulkan bahwa tidak ada hubungan signifikan antara pertambahan berat badan ibu hamil terhadap berat bayi lahirdi kota Pariaman.Kata kunci: pertambahan berat badan ibu hamil, berat bayi lahir, pertumbuhan janin intrauterin, status gizi janin AbstractThe intrauterine fetal growth is very affect the birth weight. Many factors that can affect birth weight is one of the nutritional status of the fetus. To achieve the expected nutritional status of pregnant, women have reached the ideal weight gain. The objective of this study was to determine the relationship of maternal weight gain on infant birth weight in Pariaman. The method of this study is analytical in Pariaman. Pregnant women’s data taken from January until June 2011.There were 95 samples used in this study.Obtained the highest number of maternal weight gain, we found that the average of birth weight, range < 10 kg, as many as 39 samples with an average 7.46 kg (± 1.274 SD), whereas sample with a weight gain of more than 12.53 kg as many as 27 samples with an average 17.39 kg (± 5.792 SD). Overall maternal weight gain in the average is normal, the average is 11.29 kg (± 5.194 SD). Obtained birth weight, infant with low birth weight (≤ 2.5 kg) as many as 2 samples (2.1%) with an average 2.350 kg (± 0.2121 SD) whereas sample withnormal birth weight (> 2.5 – 4 kg) as many as 92 samples,(96.8%)with weight in the average is normal, 3.176 gram (± 0.3339 SD). Overall birth weight int the average is normal, the average is 3.169 kg (± 0.3661 SD). Based on the test result showed that the correlation, r = 0.103 and p = 0.323 (> 0.05). It can be concluded that there is no significant relationship between maternal weight gain on infant birth weight in Pariaman.Keywords: maternal weight gain, birth weight, intrauterine fetal growth, nutritional status of the fetus

A mother's expectations about the development of her infant have been found to be a strong determinant of child development, but little is known about the factors that may affect maternal assessment of development. In this study, the relationship of the mother's opinion of the development of her infant with several sociodemographic, antenatal, intrapartum, and infant health variables was examined for a large sample of 1-year-old infants for whom gross motor observations were also obtained at the time of the interview. Among those observed to be developing at an appropriate rate, 4.0% were perceived by their mothers as developing more slowly than the mothers considered normal; among infants developing more slowly, 28.6% were considered to be developing slowly by their mothers. In both groups, the major determinants of maternal opinion of slow development concerned the infant's health: low birth weight, congenital anomalies regardless of severity, hospitalization during the first year of life, and high ambulatory care use. These results indicate that maternal perception of infant development may not reflect the infant's level, but past or present illness, and raise questions about the influence of infant health on maternal-infant interactions and the effect of such interactions on subsequent development in the child.

Chronic lung disease in prematurely born infants, defined as the need for increased inspired oxygen at 28 days of age, was thought to be more common in some institutions than in others. To test this hypothesis, we surveyed the experience in the intensive care nurseries at Columbia and Vanderbilt Universities, the Universities of Texas at Dallas, Washington at Seattle, and California at San Francisco, the Brigham and Women's Hospital in Boston, Texas Children's Hospital in Houston, and Mt Sinai Hospital in Toronto. The survey included 1,625 infants with birth weights of 700 to 1,500 g. We confirmed the relationship of risk to low birth weight, white race, and male sex. Significant differences in the incidence of chronic lung disease were found between institutions even when birth weight, race, and sex were taken into consideration through a multivariate logistic regression analysis. Columbia had one of the best outcomes for low birth weight infants and the lowest incidence of chronic lung disease.

BackgroundThere is no consensus on the effects that low birth weight, premature birth and intrauterine growth have on later depression.AimsTo review systematically the evidence on the relationship of low birth weight, smallness for gestational age (SGA) and premature birth with adult depression.MethodWe searched the literature for original studies assessing the effect of low birth weight, premature birth and SGA on adult depression. Separate meta-analyses were carried out for each exposure using random and fixed effects models. We evaluated the contribution of methodological covariates to heterogeneity using meta-regression.ResultsWe identified 14 studies evaluating low birth weight, 9 premature birth and 4 SGA. Low birth weight increased the odds of depression (OR = 1.39, 95% CI 1.21–1.60). Premature birth and SGA were not associated with depression, but publication bias might have underestimated the effect of the former and only four studies evaluated SGA.ConclusionsLow birth weight was associated with depression. Future studies evaluating premature birth and SGA are needed.

Observations are reported on factors affecting the ratio of secondary to primary follicles (SJP) in a flock of Merino sheep.It was found that all follicles were initiated prior to birth but that the number which finally came to maturity (production of fibre) was significantly affected by birth weight and growth from birth to 1 month. Growth at later ages appeared to be unimportant. There was a significant correlation (r = +0.29) between birth weight and log potential S/P at birth. This is interpreted to indicate that while pre-natal growth conditions affect the number of follicles initiated, other factors are also of considerable importance. It is concluded that the larger animals at birth also have a greater total number of primary follicles than smaller animals. It is further concluded that this difference in total primary follicles results primarily from differences in size a t the 90th day of pre-natal life rather than from differences in density a t that time.

AbstractPrevious studies have shown conflicting findings regarding the relationship between maternal vitamin D deficiency (VDD) and fetal growth restriction (FGR). We hypothesised that parathyroid hormone (PTH) may be an underlying factor relevant to this potential association. In a prospective birth cohort study, descriptive statistics were evaluated for the demographic characteristics of 3407 pregnancies in the second trimester from three antenatal clinics in Hefei, China. The association of the combined status of vitamin D and PTH with birth weight and the risk of small for gestational age (SGA) was assessed by a multivariate linear and binary logistic regression. We found that declined status of 25-hydroxyvitamin D is associated with lower birth weight (for moderate VDD: adjusted β = −49·4 g, 95 % CI −91·1, −7·8, P < 0·05; for severe VDD: adjusted β = −79·8 g, 95 % CI −127·2, −32·5, P < 0·01), as well as ascended levels of PTH (for elevated PTH: adjusted β = −44·5 g, 95 % CI −82·6, −6·4, P < 0·05). Compared with the non-VDD group with non-elevated PTH, pregnancies with severe VDD and elevated PTH had the lowest neonatal birth weight (adjusted β = −124·7 g, 95 % CI −194·6, −54·8, P < 0·001) and the highest risk of SGA (adjusted risk ratio (RR) = 3·36, 95 % CI 1·41, 8·03, P < 0·01). Notably, the highest risk of less Ca supplementation was founded in severe VDD group with elevated PTH (adjusted RR = 4·67, 95 % CI 2·78, 7·85, P < 0·001). In conclusion, elevated PTH induced by less Ca supplementation would further aggravate the risk of FGR in pregnancies with severe VDD through impaired maternal Ca metabolism homoeostasis.
