Abstract (VSports app下载)

Background: Low birth weight (LBW) is an important public health problem in undernourished populations. VSports手机版.

Objective: We tested whether improving women's dietary micronutrient quality before conception and throughout pregnancy increases birth weight in a high-risk Indian population V体育安卓版. .

Design: The study was a nonblinded, individually randomized controlled trial. The intervention was a daily snack made from green leafy vegetables, fruit, and milk (treatment group) or low-micronutrient vegetables (potato and onion) (control group) from ≥ 90 d before pregnancy until delivery in addition to the usual diet. Treatment snacks contained 0. 69 MJ of energy (controls: 0. 37 MJ) and 10-23% of WHO Reference Nutrient Intakes of β-carotene, riboflavin, folate, vitamin B-12, calcium, and iron (controls: 0-7%). The primary outcome was birth weight V体育ios版. .

Results: Of 6513 women randomly assigned, 2291 women became pregnant, 1962 women delivered live singleton newborns, and 1360 newborns were measured. In an intention-to-treat analysis, there was no overall increase in birth weight in the treatment group (+26 g; 95% CI: -15, 68 g; P = 0. 22). There was an interaction (P < 0. 001) between the allocation group and maternal prepregnant body mass index (BMI; in kg/m(2)) [birth-weight effect: -23, +34, and +96 g in lowest (<18. 6), middle (18. 6-21 VSports最新版本. 8), and highest (>21. 8) thirds of BMI, respectively]. In 1094 newborns whose mothers started supplementation ≥ 90 d before pregnancy (per-protocol analysis), birth weight was higher in the treatment group (+48 g; 95% CI: 1, 96 g; P = 0. 046). Again, the effect increased with maternal BMI (-8, +79, and +113 g; P-interaction = 0. 001). There were similar results for LBW (intention-to-treat OR: 0. 83; 95% CI: 0. 66, 1. 05; P = 0. 10; per-protocol OR = 0. 76; 95% CI: 0. 59, 0. 98; P = 0. 03) but no effect on gestational age in either analysis. .

Conclusions: A daily snack providing additional green leafy vegetables, fruit, and milk before conception and throughout pregnancy had no overall effect on birth weight. Per-protocol and subgroup analyses indicated a possible increase in birth weight if the mother was supplemented ≥ 3 mo before conception and was not underweight V体育平台登录. This trial was registered at www. controlled-trials. com/isrctn/ as ISRCTN62811278. .

To make all figures mutually exclusive, if a major congenital abnormality was detected on a scan and led to an abortion or termination, this case was classified as a major congenital abnormality and did not appear under abortion or termination. Shaded boxes indicate women who started supplementation ≥90 d before their LMP. IUD, intrauterine fetal death; LMP, last menstrual period date.

Effect of the intervention on birth weight according to categories of maternal prepregnant BMI: intention-to-treat analysis (A) and per-protocol analysis (B). Values are means; error bars indicate 95% CIs. P-interaction values between the allocation group (0, 1) and maternal prepregnant BMI (continuous variable) were derived by using a product term (allocation group × BMI) in linear regression models.
