TL;DR: Antenatal multiple micronutrient supplements improved survival for female neonates and provided greater birth-outcome benefits for infants born to undernourished and anaemic pregnant women.
Journal ArticleDOI

Sun Eun Lee,Christine P. Stewart,Kerry Schulze,Robert N. Cole,Lee S-F Wu,James D. Yager,John D. Groopman,Subarna K. Khatry,Ramesh K. Adhikari,Parul Christian,Keith P. West +10 more
TL;DR: Associations of anthropometric indicators of height, musculature, and fat mass with plasma proteins by using proteomics confirmed known biomarkers of childhood growth and revealed novel proteins associated with lean mass in chronically undernourished children.
Journal ArticleDOI
Circulating IGF-1 may mediate improvements in haemoglobin associated with vitamin A status during pregnancy in rural Nepalese women.
Margia Arguello,Kerry Schulze,Lee S-F Wu,Michele L. Dreyfuss,Subarna K. Khatry,Parul Christian,Keith P. West +6 more
TL;DR: Examining the relationship between serum retinol, IGF-1, and Hb among pregnant women in extant samples collected during a placebo-controlled trial of VA and beta-carotene (BC) supplementation in rural Nepal concluded that increasing IGF- 1 was likely one mechanism by which Retinol improved circulating Hb in pregnant women of rural Nepal, although IGF-2 worked primarily through pathways independent of improved iron status indicators.
Journal ArticleDOI
Circulating Insulin-like Growth Factor-1 (IGF-1) is Associated with Vitamin A (VA) Status and Increased Circulating Hemoglobin (Hb) During Pregnancy in Nepalese Women
TL;DR: Erythropoiesis is compromised by vitamin A (VA) deficiency, and VA acts on the growth hormone/IGF-1 axis, and whether VA works through IGF-1 to enhance erythropOiesis in pregnancy has not been explored.
