  • Causes and risk factors for deaths in young infants in South Asia

    Open AccessGary L Darmstadt, Salwa Abdalla et al.ARTICLEBMJ Global Health2025

    INTRODUCTION: Strategies for reducing infant mortality require accurate, local, population-level data. We conducted a population-based observational study in three countries in South Asia to describe risk factors, causes and rates of mortality in young infants. METHODS: Pregnancies, births and pregnancy outcomes were determined through household surveillance, and cause of deaths was ascertained by verbal autopsy. Cox regression was used to identi…

  • Risk factors for community-acquired bacterial infection among young infants in South Asia

    Open AccessNicholas E Connor, Mohammad Shahidul Islam et al.ARTICLEBMJ Global Health2022

    OBJECTIVE: Risk factors predisposing infants to community-acquired bacterial infections during the first 2 months of life are poorly understood in South Asia. Identifying risk factors for infection could lead to improved preventive measures and antibiotic stewardship. METHODS: Five sites in Bangladesh, India and Pakistan enrolled mother-child pairs via population-based pregnancy surveillance by community health workers. Medical, sociodemographic …

  • Characteristics associated with the transition to partial breastfeeding prior to 6 months of age

    Open AccessStephanie A Richard, Benjamin JJ McCormick et al.ARTICLEMaternal and Child Nutrition2021

    The WHO recommends exclusive breastfeeding for the first 6 months of life. However, the transition of the infants' diet to partial breastfeeding with the addition of animal milks and/or solids typically occurs earlier than this. Here, we explored factors associated with the timing of an early transition to partial breastfeeding across seven sites of a birth cohort study in which twice weekly information on infant feeding practices was collected. …

  • Developmental trends in early childhood and their predictors from an Indian birth cohort

    Open AccessBeena Koshy, Manikandan Srinivasan et al.ARTICLEBMC Public Health2021

    A triple intervention plan to enhance home environment and nurturance, early childhood nutrient supplementation, and maternal education and well-being might prevent child developmental decline in high risk settings

  • Influences on catch-up growth using relative versus absolute metrics

    Open AccessStephanie A Richard, Benjamin J J Mccormick et al.ARTICLEBMC Public Health2021

    The study children demonstrated improved growth from 24 to 60 months of age, but only a subset had positive changes in HAD and WAD. The same environmental factors were associated with growth from 24 to 60 months regardless of metric used (change in HAZ or HAD, or WAZ and WAD)

  • Predictors of recovery in children aged 6–59 months with uncomplicated severe acute malnutrition

    Open AccessSam Marconi David, Sam Marconi et al.ARTICLEPublic Health Nutrition2021

    Objective: To identify predictors of recovery in children with uncomplicated severe acute malnutrition (SAM). Design: This is a secondary data analysis from an individual randomised controlled trial, where children with uncomplicated SAM were randomised to three feeding regimens, namely ready-to-use therapeutic food (RUTF) sourced from Compact India, locally prepared RUTF or augmented home-prepared foods, under two age strata (6–17 months and 18–…

  • Body iron and lead status in early childhood and its effects on development and cognition

    Open AccessBeena Koshy, Manikandan Srinivasan et al.ARTICLEPublic Health Nutrition2020

    Objective: Early childhood factors can have persisting effects on development and cognition in children. We propose to explore the trends of Fe deficiency and Pb toxicity in early childhood and their association with child development at 2 years of age and cognition at 5 years. Design: Longitudinal birth cohort study. Setting: Urban slum, Vellore, India. Participants: Children enrolled at birth were followed up regularly in the first 2 years with…

  • How multiple episodes of exclusive breastfeeding impact estimates of exclusive breastfeeding duration

    Open AccessRamya Ambikapathi, Margaret N Kosek et al.ARTICLEMaternal and Child Nutrition2016

    The duration of exclusive breastfeeding (EBF) is often defined as the time from birth to the first non‐breast milk food/liquid fed (EBFLONG), or it is estimated by calculating the proportion of women at a given infant age who EBF in the previous 24 h (EBFDHS). Others have measured the total days or personal prevalence of EBF (EBFPREV), recognizing that although non‐EBF days may occur, EBF can be re‐initiated for extended periods. We compared brea…
