Human milk oligosaccharide (HMO) composition varies throughout lactation and can be influenced by maternal characteristics. This study describes HMO variation up to three months postpartum explores the influences of sociodemographic anthropometric characteristics in a Brazilian prospective cohort. We followed 101 subjects from 28-35 gestational weeks (baseline) at 2-8 (visit 1), 28-50 2) 88-119 days 3). Milk samples were collected visits 1, 2 3, 19 HMOs quantified usinghigh-performance...
Introduction In resource-poor settings, mother-infant dyads are commonly exposed to environmental factors increasing the risk of infectious diseases and possibly influencing cytokine profile human milk (HM). Hormones in HM have been proposed influence appetite-regulation growth exclusively breastfed infants. Objective To compare cytokines appetite-regulating hormone (ARH) concentrations mothers from four contrasting populations investigate associations with infant growth. Method samples 825...
Abstract Increased first-trimester low-density lipoprotein (LDL-C) concentration has been associated with adverse pregnancy outcomes, such as gestational diabetes. The B vitamins folate, B-6, and total B-12 are key for the methyl group-dependent endogenous synthesis of phosphatidylcholine, which is needed synthesis, e.g., very (VLDL), precursor circulating LDL-C. Maternal B-vitamin usually declines across trimesters. Whether changes in maternal concentrations cholesterol (TC), triglycerides...
Little is known regarding the association between mental health distress during pregnancy and postpartum maternal serum biomarkers of vitamin B-12 status milk concentration. To evaluate depressive anxiety symptoms in third trimester changes B-12, homocysteine, A total 101 women (18-40 years) were studied a prospective cohort with data at (baseline) three time-points (TPs): 2-8 days (TP1), 28-50 (TP2), 88-119 (TP3) postpartum. concentrations measured by competitive chemiluminescent enzyme...
To evaluate the association of pre-pregnancy body mass index (BMI) and gestational weight gain (GWG) on infant gut microbiota diversity abundance role breastfeeding this association. Prospective cohort conducted in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil. Maternal BMI (< 25; ≥ 25 kg/m², normal/excessive) GWG adequacy (adequate; excessive) were exposures practice status (exclusively EBF; predominant/complementary feeding PCF) was analyzed as an effect modifier. Infant stool samples collected for 56 infants...
