Improvement of serum folate status in the US women of reproductive age with fortified iodised salt with folic acid (Fisfa study)
Objective: Mandatory folic acid fortification of enriched grains has reduced neural tube defect prevalence in several countries. We examined salt as an additional vehicle for folic acid fortification. The primary objective was to examine the change in serum folate concentration after 1 month of consumption of fortified iodised salt with folic acid (FISFA) among women of reproductive age. The secondary objectives were to examine (1) the feasibilit…
Status of prevention of neural tube defects post-folic acid fortification of cereal grains in South Africa
Objective: Neural tube defects (NTD) are serious, life-threatening birth defects. Staple food fortification with folic acid (vitamin B 9 ) is a proven, effective intervention to reduce NTD birth prevalence. Mandatory food fortification with folic acid was implemented in South Africa (SA) in 2003. This article provides an overview of NTD birth prevalence in SA, pre- and post-fortification, and evaluates current folic acid fortification regulations…
Pre-pregnancy exposure to arsenic in diet and non-cardiac birth defects
Objectives: To explore associations between maternal pre-pregnancy exposure to arsenic in diet and non-cardiac birth defects. Design: This is a population-based, case–control study using maternal responses to a dietary assessment and published arsenic concentration estimates in food items to calculate average daily total and inorganic arsenic exposure during the year before pregnancy. Assigning tertiles of total and inorganic arsenic exposure, lo…
Cerebral palsy and developmental intellectual disability in children younger than 5 years
Objective: Children with developmental disabilities are associated with a high risk of poor school enrollment and educational attainment without timely and appropriate support. Epidemiological data on cerebral palsy and associated comorbidities required for policy intervention in global health are lacking. This paper set out to report the best available evidence on the global and regional prevalence of cerebral palsy (CP) and developmental intell…
Global and regional prevalence of disabilities among children and adolescents
Objective The United Nations' Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) require population-based data on children with disabilities to inform global policies and intervention programs. We set out to compare the prevalence estimates of disabilities among children and adolescents younger than 20 years as reported by the world's leading organizations for global health statistics. Methods We purposively searched the disability reports and databases of the…
Patterns of diarrhoeal disease among under-five children in Plateau State, Nigeria, 2013–2017
Seasonal variation exists, and trends show an increased pattern of diarrhoeal disease among under-fives. There is a need to strengthen the implementation of diarrhoeal preventive and control strategy in the state and to improve the quality of data reporting
Effect of Parity on Pregnancy-Associated Hypertension Among Asian American Women in the United States
A consensus statement on birth defects surveillance, prevention, and care in Latin America and the Caribbean
Birth defects contribute up to 21% of the mortality in those under 5 years of age in Latin America and the Caribbean (LAC), and that burden has been compounded by the Zika virus epidemic. In 2001, the March of Dimes launched a series of biennial assemblies called the International Conference on Birth Defects and Disabilities in the Developing World (ICBD). The latest ICBD, in 2017, convened in Bogotá, Colombia, and was attended by over 300 profes…
Developmental disabilities among children younger than 5 years in 195 countries and territories, 1990–2016
BACKGROUND: The Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) mandate systematic monitoring of the health and wellbeing of all children to achieve optimal early childhood development. However, global epidemiological data on children with developmental disabilities are scarce. The Global Burden of Diseases, Injuries, and Risk Factors Study 2016 provides a comprehensive assessment of prevalence and years lived with disability (YLDs) for development disabili…
Unintended pregnancy and its impact on childhood rotavirus immunization in Peru
Our study provides evidence that improving literacy among mothers could increase rotavirus vaccination uptake among children from unintended pregnancies
