A Content Analysis of Digital Marketing Strategies of Formula Companies and Influencers to Promote Commercial Milk Formula in Hong Kong
This study examines the compliance of the digital marketing strategies used by formula companies and social media influencers in promoting commercial milk formula (CMF) for infants and young children with the International Code of Marketing of Breast-milk Substitutes (International Code) and the Hong Kong Code of Marketing of Formula Milk and Related Products, and Food Products for Infants & Young Children (HK Code). Content analyses on influence…
Resilience concordance in Chinese mother–child dyads
Based on the cascading resilience model and the developmental systems framework, this study aimed to examine the concordance in resilience among Chinese mother–child dyads in Hong Kong, and to test the moderating effects of mothers’ and children’s depressive symptoms on concordance. Participants for the present study were 133 Chinese mother–child dyads (Child M age = 11.0 years old; SD = 0.21; 51.9% female) living in Hong Kong, who completed meas…
Duration of puberty in preterm girls
OBJECTIVES: Preterm birth is associated with altered pubertal timing, but the effect on pubertal duration has rarely been assessed. Here, we tested the hypothesis that preterm birth is associated with shorter duration of puberty among girls in Hong Kong where preterm birth has little social patterning. METHODS: In the population-representative Chinese birth cohort "Children of 1997", we used multivariable linear regression to assess the associati…
The association of breastfeeding with insulin resistance at 17 years
Breastfeeding has many benefits for mother and infant. Whether breastfeeding also protects against type 2 diabetes is unclear. To clarify the role of breastfeeding in type 2 diabetes, we assessed the association of breastfeeding with insulin resistance in late adolescence in a birth cohort from a non-Western setting where breastfeeding was not associated with higher socio-economic position. We used multivariable linear regression, with multiple i…
Pubertal muscle mass and diabetes markers in chinese adolescents
Objectives: Diabetes is common in China despite a relatively nonobese population. We hypothesized that testosterone driven muscle mass acquisition at puberty may be relevant. We examined the associations of testosterone with muscle mass and of muscle mass with fasting glucose in Chinese adolescents. Methods: In 40 adolescents (20 boys and 20 girls, age 12.9 ± 0.1 years) from Hong Kong's “Children of 1997” birth cohort, we used multivariable linea…
SP1-34 Pubertal muscle mass and diabetes markers in Chinese adolescents
Introduction There is an emerging epidemic of diabetes in China despite a relatively non-obese population. Genetics and lifestyle undoubtedly play a key role. We hypothesise that environmentally driven muscle mass acquisition at puberty may also be relevant. To test this hypothesis we examined the association of sex-steroids with muscle mass and of muscle mass with fasting glucose and insulin in a sample of Chinese adolescents. Methods In 40 adol…
O1-5.3 The role of milk and dairy products in childhood obesity
Introduction Observational studies, mainly from western populations, suggest that dairy product consumption is inversely associated with adiposity. However, in such populations, there is a limited range of dairy product intake while dietary intake and obesity share social patterning making evidence from non-western developed settings valuable in distinguishing whether the observed associations are biologically mediated or socially confounded. Met…
SP1-79 Birth order, gestational age and birth weight and the age at onset of puberty
Introduction Intrauterine and pubertal factors are associated with reproductive and cardiovascular health in both sexes. It is unclear how intrauterine exposures, birth order, gestational age and birth weight, also affect the timing of puberty. Methods We used interval-censored survival analyses in 3750 boys and 3241 girls (84% follow-up) in a Chinese birth cohort, “Children of 1997”, comprising 88% of births in Hong Kong in April and May 1997, t…
P1-218 Is informal child care associated with childhood obesity? Evidence from the Hong Kong's “children of 1997” birth cohort
Introduction In western populations, informal child care is associated with childhood obesity. However, in western populations, informal child care and childhood obesity are associated with lower socio-economic position (SEP), making these observations vulnerable to residual confounding. In this situation, evidence from non-western developed settings can be valuable. Methods We used multivariable linear and logistic regression to estimate the ass…
