Fish Oil and Folate Supplementation During Pregnancy (NUHEAL)
Dietary Supply of Docosahexaenoic Acid (DHA) and 5-methyl-tetrahydro-folate (MTHF) During the Second Half of Pregnancy and Early Infancy
Pregnant women are randomised to supplementation with fish oil, methyl tetrahydro folic acid, both or a placebo during the second half of pregnancy. Biochemical measures are determined in maternal blood during pregnancy and in cord blood.
Non invasive follow up examinations of infants at ages 4, 5.5, 6.5, 7.5, 8, 9 and 9.5 years focus on long term effects of supplementation anthropometric development, neurological development and allergy risk.

|
400 µg per day
|
|
Expérimental: fish oil + folate

Que mesure l'étude ?
Principaux critères de jugement
Mesure des résultats |
Description de la mesure |
Délai |
|---|---|---|
|
percentage contribution of docosahexaenoic acid (DHA) to total phospholipid fatty acids in cord blood
Délai: labour
|
the biochemical efficacy of supplementation during pregnancy is tested by measuring the DHA content of cord blood phospholipids, as direct supplementation (fish oil) or increased perfusion of the placenta (MTHF) could both influence this parameter
|
labour
|
