Journal ArticleDOI
The Diet of Preschool Children in the Mediterranean Countries of the European Union: A Systematic Review
TL;DR: Early high prevalence of overweight and obesity was found, and both early consumption of energy-dense foods and overweight seemed to track across toddler and preschool ages, and most children living in the analyzed countries showed low adherence to a Mediterranean-like diet, which in turn was associated with being overweight/obese.
Journal ArticleDOI
Early high calcium and phosphorus intake by parenteral nutrition prevents short-term bone strength decline in preterm infants.
Luís Pereira-da-Silva,Ana Costa,Laura Pereira,Ana-Filipa Filipe,Daniel Virella,E Leal,Ana-Catarina Moreira,Maria Luiza Correa da Camara Rosa,Lino Mendes,Micaela Serelha +9 more
TL;DR: Early assigned parenteral intake of Ca 75 mg ·kg−1 · day−1 and P 44 mg · kg−1· day −1 significantly contributed to preventing short-term bone strength decline in preterm infants.
Journal ArticleDOI
Nutritional Assessment in Preterm Infants: A Practical Approach in the NICU.
TL;DR: A practical approach for nutritional assessment in preterm infants under intensive care, based on anthropometric measurements and commonly used biochemical markers, is suggested, which could be proxies of body composition but need validation.
Journal ArticleDOI
Skin conductance indices discriminate nociceptive responses to acute stimuli from different heel prick procedures in infants.
Luís Pereira-da-Silva,Daniel Virella,Ivete Monteiro,Sandra Gomes,Patrícia Rodrigues,Micaela Serelha,Hanne Storm +6 more
TL;DR: Using the conjunction of available SC indices, SC seems able to differentiate the nociceptive response to acute pain of different durations in neonates with clinical indication of capillary blood sampling by heel prick.
Journal ArticleDOI
The adjusted effect of maternal body mass index, energy and macronutrient intakes during pregnancy, and gestational weight gain on body composition of full-term neonates.
Luís Pereira-da-Silva,Catarina Cabo,Ana Catarina Moreira,Daniel Virella,Tatiana Guerra,Tania Camoes,Ana Rita Silva,Rute Neves,Goncalo Cordeiro Ferreira +8 more
TL;DR: Positive adjusted associations were found between both prepregnancy BMI and energy intake from carbohydrate and offspring body size in the whole sample, and also between prepregnancy overweight and adiposity in males, and between GWG andBody size in females.
