  • Fatty acid composition in the mature milk of Bolivian forager‐horticulturalists

    Open AccessMélanie Martins, Melanie A Martin et al.ARTICLEMaternal and Child Nutrition2012

    Breast milk fatty acid (FA) composition varies greatly among individual women, including in percentages of the long-chain polyunsaturated FAs (LCPUFA) 20:4n-6 (arachidonic acid, AA) and 22:6n-3 (docosahexaenoic acid, DHA), which are important for infant neurological development. It has been suggested that owing to wide variation in milk LCPUFA and low DHA in Western diets, standards of milk FA composition should be derived from populations consum…

  • Heightened attention to supplementation is needed to improve the vitamin D status of breastfeeding mothers and infants when sunshine exposure is restricted

    Open AccessAdekunle Dawodu, Lauren C Zalla et al.ARTICLEMaternal and Child Nutrition2012

    Although exclusively breastfed infants are at increased risk of vitamin D (vit D) deficiency if vit D supplementation is lacking and sun exposure is limited, assessment of both risk factors in the first year of life is lacking. We evaluated the contribution of vit D intake and sunlight exposure to vit D status in 120 healthy, breastfeeding mother-infant dyads, who were followed up for 1 year. Vitamin D intake and skin sunlight exposure were evalu…

  • The impact of mother-to-mother support on optimal breast-feeding

    Open AccessKirk Dearden, Kirk A Dearden et al.ARTICLERevista Panamericana de Salud…2002

    This study does not provide evidence of population impact of La Leche League's intervention after one year of implementation. In peri-urban Guatemala, long-term community-based interventions, in partnership with existing health care systems, may be needed to improve community wide exclusive breast-feeding rates

  • Determinants of optimal breast-feeding in peri-urban Guatemala City, Guatemala

    Open AccessKirk Dearden, Kirk A Dearden et al.ARTICLERevista Panamericana de Salud…2002

    Our findings suggest that global efforts must be continued to improve breast-feeding practices in delivery hospitals. In addition, community-based support of breast-feeding is needed well after delivery. Mothers who work outside the home should be provided with options to maintain exclusive breast-feeding when they are physically separated from their infants due to the demands of work

  • Head Start

    Kathleen M Walsh, Cynthia S Kelly et al.ARTICLEFamily & Community Health1999

    Hospitalization for asthma occurs most often in children under 5 years of age, and children from low-income, minority families have higher morbidity and mortality rates from asthma than their more advantaged peers. This study measured the prevalence of asthma, asthma symptoms, and health care utilization among urban, predominantly minority, children enrolled in Head Start, an early education program for low-income children under 5 years of age. P…

  • Use of Focus Group Data for Strategic Planning by a Community-based Immunization Coalition

    Frances D Butterfoss, Clare Houseman et al.ARTICLEFamily & Community Health1997

    A community immunization coalition conducted focus groups to identify barriers that mothers of young children face when trying to obtain immunizations from public health, military, and private providers. Major themes derived from the data: immunizations were viewed as important, many barriers contributed to underimmunization. and the immunization process was complex. Coalition work groups used the data to develop strategies to improve access and …
