Delivery Mode and Child Development at 20 Months of Age and 7 Years of Age in the Republic of Seychelles
Intakes and adequacy of potentially important nutrients for cognitive development among 5-year-old children in the Seychelles Child Development and Nutrition Study
Objective To assess the nutritional adequacy of Seychellois children in relation to nutrients reported to be important for cognitive development. Design Dietary intakes were assessed by 4 d weighed food diaries and analysed using dietary analysis software (WISP version 3·0; Tinuviel Software, UK). Individual nutrient intakes were adjusted to usual intakes and, in order to investigate adequacy, were compared with the UK Estimated Average Requireme…
Iron status in pregnant women in the Republic of Seychelles
Objective To establish the Fe status of pregnant women and their neonates in the Republic of Seychelles. Design A prospective study. Setting Republic of Seychelles. Subjects Pregnant women were recruited and blood samples taken at enrolment and post-delivery along with cord blood samples. Ferritin and soluble transferrin receptor (sTfR) were measured in maternal ( n 220) and cord blood ( n 123) samples. Results Maternal Fe deficiency (ferritin 28…
Contribution of fish to intakes of micronutrients important for fetal development
Objectives To characterise the diets of pregnant women in the Republic of Seychelles and to determine the contribution of fish to intakes of nutrients important for fetal and neonatal development. Design Observational, prospective study. Setting Seychelles Child Development Centre, Mahé, Republic of Seychelles. Subjects and methods Pregnant women ( n 300) were recruited at their first visit to an antenatal clinic. At 28 weeks’ gestation subjects …
Prevalence of cardiovascular risk factors in a middle-income country and estimated cost of a treatment strategy
High prevalence of major risk factors was found in a rapidly developing country and costs for treatment needed to reduce risk factors in all high-risk individuals exceeded resources generally available in low or middle income countries. Our findings emphasize the need for affordable cost-effective treatment strategies and the critical importance of population strategies aimed at reducing risk factors in the entire population
Prevalence of hyperuricemia and relation of serum uric acid with cardiovascular risk factors in a developing country
This study shows that the prevalence of hyperuricemia can be high in a developing country such as the Seychelles. Besides alcohol consumption and the use of antihypertensive therapy, mainly diuretics, serum uric acid is markedly associated with parameters of the metabolic syndrome, in particular serum triglycerides. Considering the growing incidence of obesity and metabolic syndrome worldwide and the potential link between hyperuricemia and cardi…
The cost effectiveness of pharmacological smoking cessation therapies in developing countries
Pharmacological cessation therapy can be highly cost effective as compared to other common medical interventions in low mortality, middle income countries, particularly if medications can be procured at low prices
