Association of Maternal Dietary Patterns during Gestation and Offspring Neurodevelopment
The health effects of diet are long term and persistent. Few cohort studies have investigated the influence of maternal dietary patterns during different gestational periods on offspring’s health outcomes.

description | The health effects of diet are long term and persistent. Few cohort studies have investigated the influence of maternal dietary patterns during different gestational periods on offspring’s health outcomes. This study investigated the associations between maternal dietary patterns in the mid- and late-gestation and infant’s neurodevelopment at 1 year of age in the Jiangsu Birth Cohort (JBC) Study. A total of 1178 mother–child pairs were available for analysis. A semiquantitative food frequency questionnaire (FFQ) was used to investigate dietary intake at 22–26 and 30–34 gestational weeks (GWs). Neurodevelopment of children aged 1 year old was assessed using Bayley-Ⅲ Screening Test. Principal component analysis (PCA) and Poisson regression were used to extract dietary patterns and to investigate the association between dietary patterns and infant neurodevelopment. After adjusting for potential confounders, the maternal ‘Aquatic products, Fresh vegetables and Homonemeae’ pattern in the second trimester was associated with a lower risk of being non-competent in cognitive and gross motor development, respectively (cognition: aRR = 0.84; 95% CI 0.74–0.94; gross motor: aRR = 0.80; 95% CI 0.71–0.91), and the similar pattern, ‘Aquatic products and Homonemeae’, in the third trimester also showed significant association with decreased risk of failing age-appreciate cognitive and receptive communication development (cognition: aRR = 0.89; 95% CI 0.80–0.98; receptive communication: aRR = 0.91; 95% CI 0.84–0.99). Notably, adherence to the dietary pattern with relatively high aquatic and homonemeae products in both trimesters demonstrated remarkable protective effects on child neurodevelopment with the risk of being non-competent in cognitive and gross motor development decreasing by 59% (95% CI 0.21–0.79) and 63% (95% CI 0.18–0.77), respectively. Our findings suggested that adherence to the ‘Aquatic products and Homonemeae’ dietary pattern during pregnancy may have optimal effects on offspring’s neurodevelopment. |
