Relationships Among Maternal Epstein–Barr Virus Antibodies, Covid ‐19, and Stress in Mothers up to 1‐Year Postpartum
OBJECTIVES: Both psychosocial stress and current infection can increase the likelihood of reactivation of latent Epstein-Barr virus (EBV). Pregnancy and infection with SARS-CoV-2 can be stressful and modulate immune function. However, it is unknown how SARS-CoV-2 infection and stress further interact among postpartum women to affect EBV antigen and antibody expression. METHODS: We examined associations among COVID-19 diagnosis, self-reported stre…
Postpartum Maternal Stress is Unrelated to the Infant Fecal Microbiome, but is Associated With the Human Milk Microbiome in Exclusively Breastfeeding Mother‐Infant Dyads
Objectives This study aimed to evaluate whether postpartum maternal stress is associated with infant gastrointestinal microbiome composition and diversity, and whether this relationship may be mediated by maternal caregiving and breastfeeding behaviors and human milk microbiome (HMM) composition. Methods Infant fecal and human milk samples were collected from 51 exclusively breastfeeding mother‐infant dyads in the Pacific Northwest between 1 and …
Interventions Targeting Depression and Posttraumatic Stress Disorder in United States Black Women Experiencing Intimate Partner Violence
There is a dearth of evidence indicating the effectiveness of psychological interventions targeting depression and/or posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD) for Black women in the United States (US) exposed to intimate partner violence (IPV). We searched PubMed, MEDLINE, PsycINFO, EBSCOhost, Social Sciences, Social Sciences Full Text, Social Work Abstracts, and Cochrane databases between September 2021 and October 2022, for original studies of rand…
Human milk immune factors, maternal nutritional status, and infant sex
OBJECTIVES: Breastfeeding is an energetically costly and intense form of human parental investment, providing sole-source nutrition in early infancy and bioactive components, including immune factors. Given the energetic cost of lactation, milk factors may be subject to tradeoffs, and variation in concentrations have been explored utilizing the Trivers-Willard hypothesis. As human milk immune factors are critical to developing immune system and p…
Household composition and the infant fecal microbiome
OBJECTIVES: Establishment and development of the infant gastrointestinal microbiome (GIM) varies cross-culturally and is thought to be influenced by factors such as gestational age, birth mode, diet, and antibiotic exposure. However, there is little data as to how the composition of infants' households may play a role, particularly from a cross-cultural perspective. Here, we examined relationships between infant fecal microbiome (IFM) diversity/c…
Social networks, cooperative breeding, and the human milk microbiome
OBJECTIVES: We present the first available data on the human milk microbiome (HMM) from small-scale societies (hunter-gatherers and horticulturalists in the Central African Republic [CAR]) and explore relationships among subsistence type and seasonality on HMM diversity and composition. Additionally, as humans are cooperative breeders and, throughout our evolutionary history and today, we rear offspring within social networks, we examine associat…
