John J. Reilly,Julie Armstrong,Ahmad Reza Dorosty,Pauline M Emmett,Andy R Ness,Imogen Rogers,Colin D Steer,Andrea Sherriff +7 more
TL;DR: Eight factors in early life are associated with an increased risk of obesity in childhood, including parental obesity and catch-up growth.
Journal ArticleDOI
Maternal seafood consumption in pregnancy and neurodevelopmental outcomes in childhood (ALSPAC study): an observational cohort study.
Joseph R. Hibbeln,John M. Davis,Colin D Steer,Pauline M Emmett,Imogen Rogers,Cathy Williams,Jean Golding +6 more
TL;DR: Risks from the loss of nutrients were greater than the risks of harm from exposure to trace contaminants in 340 g seafood eaten weekly, suggesting that advice to limit seafood consumption could actually be detrimental.
Journal ArticleDOI
Effect of inadequate iodine status in UK pregnant women on cognitive outcomes in their children: results from the Avon Longitudinal Study of Parents and Children (ALSPAC)
TL;DR: The results show the importance of adequate iodine status during early gestation and emphasise the risk that iodine deficiency can pose to the developing infant, even in a country classified as only mildly iodine deficient.
Journal ArticleDOI
Selective drop-out in longitudinal studies and non-biased prediction of behaviour disorders
Dieter Wolke,Andrea Waylen,Muthanna Samara,Colin D Steer,Robert Goodman,Tamsin Ford,Koen Lamberts +6 more
TL;DR: The authors investigated whether dropout in the Avon Longitudinal study of parents and children (ALSPAC) was systematic or random, and if systematic, whether it had an impact on the prediction of disruptive behaviour disorders.
Journal ArticleDOI
Feeding Symptoms, Dietary Patterns, and Growth in Young Children With Autism Spectrum Disorders
TL;DR: ASD children showed feeding symptoms from infancy and had a less varied diet from 15 months, but energy intake and growth were not impaired, and there were no differences in weight, height or BMI at 18 months, or in hemoglobin concentrations at 7 years.
