Association of Gestational Weight Trajectories With Neonatal Outcomes Among Pregnant Slum‐Dwelling Women, India
The influence of early pregnancy weight and gestational weight gain (GWG) on neonatal outcomes among Indian slum-dwellers remains understudied. A prospective cohort study summarised maternal weight trajectories using the longitudinal clustering technique and explored associations between these clusters and neonatal outcomes (low birthweight, small for gestational age [SGA] and preterm births) among 423 pregnant slum-dwelling women in Pune, India.…
Birth cohort differences in height, weight and BMI among Indian women aged 15–30 years
Objective: To explore long-term trends in height, weight and BMI across birth cohorts among Indian women aged 15–30 years. Design: Nationally representative cross-sectional surveys. Setting: Data from three National Family Health Surveys were conducted in 1998–1999, 2005–2006 and 2015–2016. Height and weight were modelled jointly, employing a multivariate regression model with age and birth cohorts as explanatory variables. The largest birth coho…
Effects of dietary counselling on micronutrient intakes in pregnant women in Finland
The intake of some micronutrients is still a public health challenge for pregnant women in Finland. This study examined the effects of dietary counselling on micronutrient intakes among pregnant women at increased risk of gestational diabetes mellitus in Finland. This study utilised data from was a cluster-randomised controlled trial (n = 399), which aimed to prevent gestational diabetes. In the intervention group, the dietary counselling was car…
Ethnic Differences in Gestational Weight Gain
Supplemental iron intake and the risk of glucose intolerance in pregnancy
Observational studies suggest that high iron intake during pregnancy is associated with the risk of gestational diabetes. As such studies are prone to bias, we re-analysed data from a randomised controlled trial of iron supplementation to see whether it supports the risk found in observational studies. The trial was conducted in primary health care setting in five municipalities in Finland in 1985-1986. The participants were 2944 women (95% of pr…

Effects of dietary counselling on food habits and dietary intake of Finnish pregnant women at increased risk for gestational diabetes – a secondary analysis of a cluster‐randomized controlled trial
The incidence of gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM) is increasing and GDM might be prevented by improving diet. Few interventions have assessed the effects of dietary counselling on dietary intake of pregnant women. This study examined the effects of dietary counselling on food habits and dietary intake of Finnish pregnant women as secondary outcomes of a trial primarily aiming at preventing GDM. A cluster-randomized controlled trial was conduct…
Agreement between pedometer and accelerometer in measuring physical activity in overweight and obese pregnant women
Despite statistically significant correlations and similar median step counts, the overall agreement between pedometer and accelerometer step counts was poor and varied with activity level. Pedometer and accelerometer steps cannot be used interchangeably in overweight and obese pregnant women
O2-4.5 Prevention of gestational diabetes mellitus and newborn's high birthweight by lifestyle counselling –a cluster-randomised controlled trial
Introduction To examine, whether gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM) or newborns9 high birthweight can be prevented by lifestyle counselling. Methods A cluster-randomised trial in 14 municipalities, where 2271 women were screened at 8–12 weeks9 gestation. Euglycaemic (N=399) women with at least one GDM risk factor were included. Intervention included individual intensified counselling on physical activity, diet and weight gain at five antenatal v…
