Social Inequities in Cardiovascular Disease Risk Factors at Multiple Levels Persist Among Mothers in Texas
The life stage between the ages of 30-45 years for women is critical, given the competing demands of occupational advancement, intimate partner relationships, and childcare responsibilities. Cardiovascular disease (CVD) is the leading cause of death among women in the US, which is experienced inequitably by race/ethnicity/nativity and socioeconomic status and is embedded within geographic contexts. The objective of the current study was to examin…
Neighborhood Diversity Is Good for Your Health
Racial concentration of neighborhoods is often associated with the risk of preterm birth (PTB) for women. This study examined differences between racially diverse and racially concentrated neighborhoods when examining preterm birth. Individual-level data were obtained from Texas natality files for 2009-2011, and neighborhood-level (i.e., census tract) data were obtained from the decennial census in 2010 and the American Community Survey 2005-2009…
Pathways linking social support, self-efficacy, and exclusive breastfeeding among women in northern Uganda
Despite improvements in infant feeding practices over the past two decades, the prevalence of exclusive breastfeeding (EBF) is below global targets. Social support can create an enabling environment for recommended infant feeding practices such as EBF, but the types of social support most important for sustained EBF and their potential mechanisms of action have not been thoroughly characterized. We therefore aimed to assess the relationship betwe…
What stops us from eating
Objective: Adequate dietary intake during pregnancy is vital for the health and nutritional status of both mother and fetus. The nutritional status of reproductive age women in Pakistan is poor, with 14 % being underweight (BMI Design: In-depth interviews and focus group discussions were conducted and then analysed using thematic analysis. Setting: Three purposively selected rural districts (Sahiwal, Okara and Pakpatan) with the highest prevalenc…
Is high dietary quality the real fountain of youth
Prepregnancy overweight and obesity are associated with impaired child neurodevelopment
The authors examined the relationship of prepregnancy body mass index (BMI) and gestational weight gain (GWG) with child neurodevelopment. Mother-child dyads were a subgroup (n = 2,084) of the Child Health and Development Studies from the Oakland, California, area enrolled during pregnancy from 1959 to 1966 and followed at child age 9 years. Linear regression was used to examine associations between prepregnancy BMI, GWG, and standardized Peabody…
Gestational weight gain and obesity, adiposity and body size in A frican– A merican and D ominican children in the B ronx and N orthern M anhattan
Gestational weight gain (GWG) is potentially modifiable and is associated with infant size and body composition; however, long-term effects on childhood obesity have not been reported among multi-ethnic urban populations. We examined the association between GWG and child anthropometric measures and body composition at 7 years [waist circumference (WC), body mass index z-score (BMIZ), obesity (BMIZ ≥95%ile) and bioelectrical impedance analysis est…
