Fish Oil and Folate Supplementation During Pregnancy (NUHEAL)
29. juli 2014 oppdatert av: Ludwig-Maximilians - University of Munich
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.

Tiltaksbeskrivelse |
Tidsramme |
|---|---|---|
|
percentage contribution of docosahexaenoic acid (DHA) to total phospholipid fatty acids in cord blood
Tidsramme: 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
