The impact of maternal weight in pregnancy on glucose metabolism in non-diabetic offspring in late adulthood
2019
Aims: We aimed to examine the association between maternal adiposity and glucose metabolism in adult offspring without diabetes, simultaneous taking offspring own adiposity into account. Methods: This longitudinal birth cohort study (Helsinki Birth Cohort Study) included 1,440 non-diabetic subjects examined at a mean age of 62 years. Subjects were divided into quartiles according to maternal body mass index (BMI). The impact of maternal BMI on offspring body composition was also studied. Results: There were no differences in fasting glucose between the groups. In men, maternal BMI was inversely associated with mean 2-hour glucose concentration after a 75 g oral glucose tolerance test (p <0.…
Association of Gestational Weight Gain With Adverse Maternal and Infant Outcomes
2019
Importance: Both low and high gestational weight gain have been associated with adverse maternal and infant outcomes, but optimal gestational weight gain remains uncertain and not well defined for all prepregnancy weight ranges. Objectives: To examine the association of ranges of gestational weight gain with risk of adverse maternal and infant outcomes and estimate optimal gestational weight gain ranges across prepregnancy body mass index categories. Design, setting, and participants: Individual participant-level meta-analysis using data from 196 670 participants within 25 cohort studies from Europe and North America (main study sample). Optimal gestational weight gain ranges were estimated…
Relationship between maternal body mass index, gestational weight gain and birth weight: prospective study in a health department
2015
Objetivo: Contrastar la relación que existe entre la ganancia de peso gestacional y el peso del recién nacido, entre cada categoría de IMC pregestacional. Material y Métodos: Estudio observacional y descriptivo con muestreo bietápico en el Departamento de Salud de la Ribera (Valencia, España). Se clasificaron en cuatro grupos dependiendo del índice de masa corporal (IMC) pregestacional. Resultados: Se estudiaron 140 gestantes. La evolución de la ganancia de peso gestacional (GPG) y de sus gradientes trimestrales fue ascendente. Se produjo un mayor incremento del primer al segundo trimestre que del segundo al tercero para todas las categorías de IMC pregestacional. Según las recomendaciones …
Breastfeeding Practices Influence the Breast Milk Microbiota Depending on Pre-Gestational Maternal BMI and Weight Gain over Pregnancy
2021
Breastfeeding is critical for adequate neonatal microbial and immune system development affecting neonate health outcomes in the short and long term. There is a great interest in ascertaining which are the maternal factors contributing to the milk microbiota and the potential relevance for the developing infant. Thus, our study aimed to characterize the effect of mixed and exclusive breastfeeding practices on the milk microbiota and to determine the impact of pre-pregnancy body mass index (BMI) and weight gain over pregnancy on its composition. Breast milk samples from 136 healthy women were collected within the first month post-partum and milk microbiota profiling was analyzed by 16S rRNA …
A Smartphone App to Promote Healthy Weight Gain, Diet, and Physical Activity During Pregnancy (HealthyMoms): Protocol for a Randomized Controlled Tri…
2019
BACKGROUND: Excessive gestational weight gain is common and associated with adverse outcomes both in the short and long term. Although traditional lifestyle-based interventions have shown to mitigate excess gestational weight gain, little is known about whether mobile Health (mHealth) apps can promote healthy weight gain, diet, and physical activity during pregnancy. OBJECTIVE: The primary aim of the HealthyMoms trial is to determine the effectiveness of a smartphone app (HealthyMoms) for mitigating excess gestational weight gain during pregnancy. Secondary aims are to determine the effectiveness of the app on dietary habits, physical activity, body fatness, and glycemia during pregnancy. M…

Gestācijas svara pieauguma ietekme uz dzemdībām un jaundzimušo
2018
KOPSAVILKUMS Virsraksts: Gestācijas svara pieauguma ietekme uz dzemdībām un jaundzimušo Mērķis: Grūtniecība var būt vissvarīgākais fizioloģiskais process dzīves ciklā. Pareiza barošana grūtniecības un pēcdzemdību periodā ir svarīga gan jaundzimušo, gan mātes veselībai. Šī pētījuma mērķis ir analizēt saistību starp grūsnības ķermeņa masas pieauguma rādītājiem dažādās vecuma grupās un novērtēt neonatāla rezultāta ietekmi uz abiem bērniem. Materiāli un metodes: materiāls tika savākts no 2017. gada oktobra līdz 2017. gada decembrim Rīgas Dzemdību nams. Mēs iekļāvām 306 sievietes ar normālu jebkura vecuma un grūtniecības ķermeņa svaru, piemēram, priekšlaicīgu dzemdību laiku, termiņu un pēcnāves …
Preeclampsia and gestational weight gain in the Norwegian Fit for Delivery trial
2018
Abstract Objective Excessive gestational weight gain is linked to risk of preeclampsia, but it is not clear whether the association is causal. The purpose of this paper was to examine gestational weight gain in the Norwegian Fit for Delivery study among women who developed preeclampsia compared to those who did not, and to further explore associations between weight gain and preeclampsia by including data on body composition (bioimpedance) assessed in the last trimester of pregnancy. Results A total of 550 women were eligible for the study. Women who developed preeclampsia gained more weight than women who did not (difference 3.7 kg, p = 0.004), with a 3.5 kg difference in total body water …
Standard international recommendations for gestational weight gain: suitability for our population
2020
Background: gestational weight gain (GWG) is one of the most commonly used indicators in prenatal care, and probably the most influential factor in perinatal outcomes. Objective: to determine the extent to which the GWG of pregnant women from the Ribera Health Department (Valencia) meets GWG international standards as recommended by the U.S. Institute of Medicine (IOM). Methods: a retrospective observational study of a sample of 4,361 women who gave birth at Hospital Universitario de la Ribera between January 1, 2010 and December 31, 2015. Pregnant women were classified according to GWG international recommendations: adequate weight gain, above and below. Results: a higher GWG increases the…
