Gestational Weight Gain and Offspring Longitudinal Growth in Early Life.
BACKGROUND Excessive gestational weight gain (GWG) increases the risk of childhood obesity, but little is known about its association with infant growth patterns. AIM The aim of this study was to examine the association between GWG and infant growth patterns. METHODS Pregnant women (n = 743) self-reported GWG at delivery, which we classified as inadequate, adequate or excessive based on the...
متن کاملEarly Weight Gain, Linear Growth, and Mid-Childhood Blood Pressure: A Prospective Study in Project Viva.
In recent years, the prevalence of hypertension and prehypertension increased markedly among children and adolescents, highlighting the importance of identifying determinants of elevated blood pressure early in life. Low birth weight and rapid early childhood weight gain are associated with higher future blood pressure. However, few studies have examined the timing of postnatal weight gain in r...
متن کاملEffects of Early Feeding Support on the Postoperative Weight Gain Status of Infants with Esophageal Atresia
Background: Infants may lose their body resources after surgery due to inadequate nutrient intake and undergoing long periods of fasting after surgery for esophageal atresia, increases risk of several complications. Aim: This study aimed to evaluate the effects of early feeding support on the postoperative weight gain status of infants with esophageal atresia. Method: This randomized, controlle...
متن کاملThe Effect of Early Subcutaneous Administration of Erythropoietin on Hematopoiesis and Weight Gain Velocity in Preterm Infants
Abstract Introduction Anemia in preterm infants is identified as hemoglobin lower than 7-10g/dl around 1-3 months after birth. The aim of this study was to evaluate the effect of early subcutaneous administration of erythropoietin on hematopoiesis and weight gain velocity in preterm infants. Materials and Methods The present study was clinical trial carried out on 42 preterm infants. Those ...
متن کاملParental body size and early weight and height growth velocities in their offspring.
BACKGROUND Whereas weight or height at a given age are the results of the cumulative growth experience, growth velocities allows the study of factors affecting growth at given ages. AIM To study the relationships between parental height and body mass index (BMI) and offspring's height and weight growth during infancy and childhood. STUDY DESIGN From the FLVSII population-based study, 235 pa...
