Pre-pandemic to early-pandemic changes in risk of household food insecurity among Maryland families with children

Alysse J. Kowalski, Ann Pulling Kuhn, Hannah G. Lane, Angela C. B. Trude, Helina Selam, Erin R. Hager, Maureen M. Black

Summary: The study found that the risk of household food insecurity increased in the early stages of the pandemic, especially for non-Hispanic Black and Other families, as well as families earning less than 300% of the federal poverty level. Factors such as decreased income, job loss, and reduced work hours were associated with an increased risk of early-pandemic food insecurity, while receiving CARES stimulus payments and continuing to participate in school meal programs were associated with a decreased risk.

On the Move or Barely Moving? Age-Related Changes in Physical Activity, Sedentary, and Sleep Behaviors by Weekday/Weekend Following Pandemic Control Policies

Ann Pulling Kuhn, Alysse J. Kowalski, Yan Wang, Rachel Deitch, Helina Selam, Zahra Rahmaty, Maureen M. Black, Erin R. Hager

Summary: This study examined the changes in physical activity and sedentary behavior/sleep among different age groups from pre-pandemic to early-pandemic. The results showed that middle schoolers experienced a decrease in physical activity and an increase in sedentary behavior on weekdays, while preschoolers and elementary schoolers did not show significant changes. Compared to elementary schoolers, middle schoolers had significantly different changes in physical activity and sedentary behavior on weekdays.

Summary: The study found a relationship between prenatal WIC participation for income-eligible immigrant mothers and healthier birth weights among infants born in the United States, including for those who arrived most recently.

Waking up to sleep's role in obesity and blood pressure among Black adolescent girls in low-income, US urban communities: A longitudinal analysis

Angela Cristina Bizzotto Trude, Bridget Armstrong, Adriana Kramer Fiala Machado, Emerson M. Wickwire, Lauren B. Covington, Yan Wang, Erin Hager, Maureen M. Black

Summary: This study examines the longitudinal bidirectional associations between unique sleep trajectories and obesity and hypertension in Black adolescent girls. The findings suggest that an additional hour of sleep and increased sleep efficiency can reduce the risk of overweight/obesity at certain time points. Furthermore, improved sleep trajectories are associated with lower diastolic blood pressure at follow-up.

Preschoolers BMI: Associations with Patterns of Caregivers' Feeding Practices Using Structural Equation Models

Zahra Rahmaty, Mary E. Johantgen, Carla L. Storr, Yan Wang, Maureen M. Black

Summary: The study showed that autonomy-promoting feeding practices were associated with lower child BMIz, while controlling feeding practices were associated with higher BMIz. Factors such as difficult child temperament, caregiver's BMIz, and caregiver's desire for a thinner child were also found to be related to BMIz.

Summary: The aim of this study is to validate the Global Scales for Early Development (GSED) and create reference scores for its short form and long form. The study will be conducted in seven countries with a total of 1248 children, using cross-sectional and longitudinal methods. The findings will be disseminated through various channels.

Summary: This paper presents the WHO-led Global Scales for Early Development (GSED) project, which aims to provide valid and reliable measures of early childhood development. Using a combination of quantitative and qualitative procedures, the authors created the GSED-SF and GSED-LF measures, which consist of 139 and 157 items respectively, and are suitable for implementation in diverse cultural and language contexts.

Associations between early introduction to complementary foods, subsequent cereal-added bottle feeding and daily macronutrient intake among infants

Jigna M. Dharod, Marlen Hernandez, Jeffrey D. Labban, Maureen M. Black, Alice Ammerman, Christina Frazier, Nichole Raynor, Isa Ramos-Castillo

Summary: Introducing complementary foods before 4 months of age is associated with decreased breastfeeding rates and increased likelihood of adding cereal into the bottle at 6 months. This practice is more common among low-income and minority families with lower levels of food security. Infants fed cereal in the bottle consume significantly more calories compared to those who do not. Understanding the impact of these feeding practices on appetite development and weight status during infancy is important.

An equitable, community-engaged translational framework for science in human lactation and infant feeding-a report from Breastmilk Ecology: Genesis of Infant Nutrition (BEGIN) Working Group 5

Summary: Human milk is the ideal source of nutrition for infants, but there are still significant gaps in our understanding of human milk biology. The BEGIN Project developed a translational research framework for human lactation and infant feeding, which includes 5 stages and 6 overarching principles. This framework and its principles aim to optimize infant feeding and health across diverse contexts.

Associations of household unmet basic needs and health outcomes among very low birth weight children

Summary: We examined the association between household hardships and various outcomes among very low birth weight children, including postnatal growth, developmental risk, health status, and hospitalization. The study found that household hardships were associated with an increased risk of developmental problems, fair/poor health, and hospitalizations. Additionally, the presence of child supplemental security income (SSI) seemed to protect against developmental risk in households facing hardships.

The Effects of Multiple Micronutrient Fortified Beverage and Responsive Caregiving Interventions on Early Childhood Development, Hemoglobin, and Ferritin among Infants in Rural Guatemala

Alysse J. Kowalski, Victor Alfonso Mayen, Silvia de Ponce, Kaley B. Lambden, Nick Tilton, Lisa M. Villanueva, Ana M. Palacios, Gregory A. Reinhart, Kristen M. Hurley, Maureen M. Black

Summary: Undernutrition and a lack of learning opportunities can hinder the growth and development of infants in low- and middle-income countries. A cluster-randomized trial conducted in southwest Guatemala demonstrated that a multiple micronutrient-fortified beverage improved infants' socioemotional development. However, there were no significant effects on other measures of child development, hemoglobin, or ferritin.

Early emotional caregiving environment and associations with memory performance and hippocampal volume in adolescents with prenatal drug exposure

Brooke H. Kohn, Zehua Cui, Margo A. Candelaria, Stacy Buckingham-Howes, Maureen M. Black, Tracy Riggins

Summary: Early adversities, including prenatal drug exposure and negative postnatal emotional caregiving environment, have long-term impacts on children's development. This study found that a negative emotional caregiving environment during infancy was associated with poor memory performance and smaller left hippocampal volumes at 14 years, while better memory performance at 14 years predicted larger right hippocampal volume at 18 years. The association between the emotional caregiving environment and hippocampal volume was moderated by sex at 18 years.
