A Multi-Sectoral Approach Improves Early Child Development in a Disadvantaged Community in Peru
Background: Multi-dimensional monitoring evaluation and learning strategies are needed to address the complex set of factors that affect early child development in marginalized populations, but few studies have explored their effectiveness. Objective: To compare improvement of health and development of children 0-3 years between intervention communities (IC) and control communities (CC) from peripheral settlements of Lima. Sequential intervention…
Associations of History of Displacement, Food Insecurity, and Stress With Maternal-Fetal Health in a Conflict Zone
Background : In populations with a history of conflict, early identification of pregnant women who are at risk of adverse pregnancy outcomes is challenging. We investigated if food security and diet quality, clinical biomarkers, and stress were associated with 3 indicators of maternal-fetal wellbeing: 1) symphysis-fundal height (SFH), 2) sonography-estimated fetal weight, and 3) sonography-calculated amniotic fluid index (AFI). Methods: For this …
Identification of High-Risk Pregnancies in a Remote Setting Using Ambulatory Blood Pressure
Background: Ambulatory blood pressure is a potential tool for early detection of complications during pregnancy, but its utility in impoverished settings has not been assessed. This cross-sectional study aimed to determine whether maternal infections, nutrient deficiencies and inflammation (MINDI) were associated with four measures of maternal blood pressure (BP) and to determine their association with symphysis-fundal-height (SFH). Methods: Envi…
