High folic acid supplementation is associated with vaginal bleeding in early pregnancy in a fetal sex-specific manner
Vaginal bleeding in early pregnancy is associated with adverse pregnancy outcomes. Excess folic acid ingestion has shown potential adverse effects on pregnancy outcomes. However, little is known about the fetal sex-specific influence of excess folic acid supplementation on vaginal bleeding. We aimed to determine whether increasing folic acid supplementation is associated with vaginal bleeding in early pregnancy with respect to fetal sex. Two pros…
Anxiety and Depression in Early Gestation and the Association with Subsequent Gestational Diabetes Mellitus in a Disadvantaged Population
There was no difference in markers of poor mental health in early pregnancy between women who subsequently did or did not develop GDM. Cohort participants were socioeconomically disadvantaged, potentially contributing to the lack of apparent differences in depression observed between groups. Socioeconomically disadvantaged women should be targeted in pre-conception planning to reduce risk of GDM
Development and internal validation of the SMILE-FSS
Objective: To develop and internally validate a Free Sugars Screener (FSS) for Australian children aged 2 and 5 years. Design: Using data collected from a ninety-nine-item (2-year-olds) and ninety-eight-item (5-year-olds) FFQ in the Study of Mothers’ and Infants’ Life Events affecting oral health (SMILE-FFQ), a regression-based prediction modelling approach was employed to identify a subset of items that accurately estimate total free sugars inta…
Development of an initiatives package to increase children’s vegetable intake in long day care centres using the Multiphase Optimisation Strategy (Most) randomised factorial experiment
Objective: To inform a package of initiatives to increase children’s vegetable intake while in long day care (LDC) by evaluating the independent and combined effects of three initiatives targeting food provision, the mealtime environment and the curriculum. Design: Using the Multiphase Optimisation Strategy (MOST) framework, a 12-week, eight-condition ( n 7 intervention, n 1 control) randomised factorial experiment was conducted. Children’s dieta…
