Prenatal and postnatal growth trajectories and prenatal maternal exposures in association with body composition at ages 1, 3, 6 and 9 months with the modification of infants nutritional intake
Achtergrond van het onderzoek
Evidence is rising that low birth weight for gestational age and rapid postnatal catch-up growth are risk factors for the development of obesity and diabetes type 2 in adulthood. It has been demonstrated that the early postnatal period is a critical window for the programming of various pathways in tissues and organs, in which nutrition is an important determinant. Up until now pilot data show that rapid postnatal weight gain during the first 3 months of life might cause accelerated fat accumulation which in turn will track into adulthood, but until now it remained difficult to assess infant body composition properly.
