TL;DR: A supplement of 600 mg DHA/d in the last half of gestation resulted in overall greater gestation duration and infant size, and a reduction in early preterm and very-low birth weight could be important clinical and public health outcomes of DHA supplementation.

TL;DR: The data from this relatively small trial suggest that, although the effects of LCPUFAs may not always be evident on standardized developmental tasks at 18 mo, significant effects may emerge later on more specific or fine-grained tasks.

TL;DR: The NLit-P demonstrates potential for measuring parental nutrition literacy, which may be an important educational target for improving child diet quality and support concurrent validity for the NLit -P related to child dietquality and parental income, age, and educational attainment.

TL;DR: Post-partum maternal and infant red blood cell DHA was significantly higher in the supplemented group as were metrics of fetal HRV and newborn neurobehavior in the autonomic and motor clusters.

TL;DR: Modest increases in DHA intake in toddlers might improve development, including respiratory health, and record adverse events in US children between 18 and 36 months of age.
