Kansas University DHA Outcome Study (KUDOS) Follow-Up
January 29, 2018 updated by: Susan Carlson, PhD
This is a continuation study to KUDOS (NCT00266825).
The purpose of this study is to follow-up with participants on the original study to determine if the effects of increasing DHA intake during pregnancy increase cognitive development in 2 to 6 year-old children.
Study Overview
Detailed Description
Numerous trials show benefits of postnatal DHA supplementation for visual acuity.
There are also numerous observational(not intervention)studies that link higher maternal DHA status during pregnancy to higher cognitive function.
Intervention studies that increase DHA exposure during fetal life and that measure cognitive development of infants are lacking; and no study to date has systematically followed children whose mothers were randomly assigned to DHA supplementation to school age with regular 6 month assessments of age-appropriate assessments of cognitive development.
The absence of such studies is a serious limitation because there is evidence that differences in cognitive function due to such interventions do not become robust until around age 4 years.
Women in the US consume low amounts of DHA compared to other world populations, and this likely means less DHA transfer to the fetus than in many other populations.
Prenatal DHA exposure may be more important than postnatal exposure, because animal studies show critical windows for brain DHA accumulation in relation to effects on neurotransmitters such as serotonin, dopamine and GABA.

Adaptive Regulation Assessment
Time Frame: 36 Months
|
The Parent Rating Scales of the Behavior Assessment System for Children 2nd Edition measures different aspects of a child's behaviors as reported by a parent.
Externalizing Problems is a measure of Aggression and Hyperactivity.
Internalizing Problems is a measure of Anxiety, Depression, and Somatization.
The Behavioral Symptoms Index is a more global measure of behavior problems and combines Externalizing Problems with the measure of Depression from Internalizing Problems, and additional measures of Atypicality, Withdrawal, and Attention Problems.
Adaptive Skills is a measure of Adaptability, Social Skills, Activities of Daily Living, Functional Communication, and at age 6 years Leadership.
All scores are derived from the general, combined sex normative tables of T-Scores.
For Adaptive Skills higher T-Scores reflect a more optimal outcome.
For all other measures lower T-Scores reflect a more optimal outcome.
All T-Scores were standardized with a Mean = 50, St Dev = 10.

Dietary Intake
Time Frame: 2 years

Biannually a registered dietitian assessed child diet by a standardized 24 hour dietary recall with three-pass approach.
When necessary both the parent and child participated in the recall process to increase overall reliability.
Recalls were entered into Nutrition Data System for Research (NDS-R versions 2006-2016, University of Minnesota, Minneapolis, MN, USA) and were checked for accuracy by a second dietitian.
Reliability and caloric intake data are presented here.
Reliability is defined as the dietitian's subjective assessment of the family's ability to recall the majority of food items consumed during the 24 hour period and within reasonable serving sizes.
