Comparative effectiveness of therapeutic interventions in pregnancy and lactation-associated osteoporosis: a systematic review and meta-analysis
CONCLUSIONS: Due to high heterogeneity and lack of robust comparative data, no safe conclusions can be made regarding the optimal therapeutic intervention in women with PLO.PMID:37708365 | DOI:10.1210/clinem/dgad548

Fortification of condiments and seasonings with iron for preventing anaemia and improving health
CONCLUSIONS: We are uncertain whether consuming iron-fortified condiments/seasonings reduces anaemia, improves haemoglobin concentration, or improves ferritin concentration. It may reduce ID. Findings about ferritin should be interpreted with caution since its concentrations increase during inflammation. Consuming condiments/seasonings fortified with iron plus other micronutrients may reduce anaemia, and we are uncertain whether this will improve haemoglobin concentration or ferritin concentration. More studies are needed to determine the true effect of iron-fortified condiments/seasonings on preventing anaemia and improvi...

Supplementation with (6 < em > S < /em > )-5-methyltetrahydrofolic acid appears as effective as folic acid in maintaining maternal folate status while reducing unmetabolised folic acid in maternal plasma: a randomised trial of pregnant women in Canada
In conclusion, supplementation with (6S)-5-MTHF may reduce plasma UMFA by ∼50 % as compared with supplementation with folic acid, the biological relevance of which is unclear. As folate is currently available for purchase in both forms, the impact of circulating maternal UMFA on perinatal outcomes needs to be determined.PMID:37649241 | DOI:10.1017/S0007114523001733

Association between female circulating heavy metal concentration and abortion: a systematic review and metaanalysis
Conclusion: The Zn and Cu deficiency and Pb and Cd exposure were associated with abortion. Endocrine dysfunction, such as insulin resistance, vitamin D insufficiency, and abnormal thyroid and sex hormone concentrations, is supposed to have involved in heavy metals related abortion.

Susceptibility to low vitamin B6 diet-induced gestational diabetes is modulated by strain differences in mice
Endocrinology. 2023 Aug 25:bqad130. doi: 10.1210/endocr/bqad130. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTGestational diabetes is a common pregnancy complication that adversely influences the health and survival of mother and child. Pancreatic islet serotonin signaling plays an important role in β-cell proliferation in pregnancy, and environmental and genetic factors that disrupts serotonin signaling are associated with gestational diabetes in mice. Our previous studies show that pregnant C57BL/6J mice fed diet that is low in vitamin B6, a critical co-factor in serotonin synthesis, develop hyperglycemia and glucose intolerance, phen...

A risk-based labelling strategy for supplemented foods in Canada: consumer perspectives
Applied Physiology, Nutrition, and Metabolism, Ahead of Print. Unlike conventional foods, supplemented foods are prepackaged foods containing one or more added supplemental ingredients, such as vitamins, mineral nutrients, amino acids, and caffeine, which have historically been marketed as providing specific physiological benefits or health effects. These ingredients can pose a health risk if overconsumed by the general population or if consumed by certain vulnerable populations such as children or those who are pregnant. Consumer perspectives of a proposed risk-based multicomponent supplemented food labelling strategy to ...

Assessment of the oxidative status in mother-child couples from Seville (Spain): A prospective cohort study
Free Radic Biol Med. 2023 Aug 18;207:308-319. doi: 10.1016/j.freeradbiomed.2023.08.017. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTPregnancy requires a high demand of energy, which leads to an increase of oxidative stress. The aim of this study was to assess the oxidative status in 200 couples of pregnant women-newborns at the time of delivery, for the first time, who gave birth in two University Hospitals from the province of Seville. Recruited women filled an epidemiological questionnaire with their demographic characteristics and dietary habits during pregnancy. At the time of delivery, both maternal and cord blood samples were coll...
