Associations of diet and supplement use with birth size in HIVinfected pregnant women
FASEB JOURNAL(2013)
Abstract
Our objective was to examine associations of diet and supplement (supps) use in the 3rd trimester of pregnancy with birth size in 265 HIV‐infected (HIV+) women in PHACS. We administered three 24‐hour multiple pass dietary recalls over 2 weeks. We fit linear regression models to evaluate associations of each nutrient with Z‐scores for birth weight (BWZ) and length (BLZ), adjusted for maternal birth outside US, BMI, and kcal/day. Mean age was 28y; 68% were black, 76% were US‐born, 54% had income < $10,000/yr, mean BMI was 27. Median [IQR] intakes were 2,030 [1551, 2523] kcal/day, 78 [62, 95] g protein, 14 [10, 18] g fiber, 32% [28, 37] calories from fat, and 94% used supps. Many women consumed less than the dietary reference intake (DRI) in pregnancy (diet + supps) for protein (40%), fiber (95%), calcium (41%), vitamin D (57%), folate (13%), iron (14%), N‐3 fatty acids (40%) and other nutrients. Mean BWZ was lower for women with intakes More
