It was a true honor to present the results of the #Misame3 trial to @BillGates and @trevormundel on behalf of our team @ugent & @IrssF. This poster represents 5 years of tireless work for literally hundreds of colleagues—all to improve maternal & child health across the globe. 🌍
Look who stopped by @TrentonPhD's poster at #GCAM2023 🌟
@BillGates & @trevormundel had some great questions about maternal nutrition research in 🇧🇫. Trenton had the answers!

We're thrilled to share our latest study protocol published in @Nutrients_MDPI! With this sub-study of the #Misame3 project, we embark on a journey to rural #BurkinaFaso to explore the impacts of fortified #BEP supplementation on maternal & newborn health. doi.org/10.3390/nu15184056

I'm super excited to share our new paper on the effect of prenatal micronutrient-fortified Balanced Energy-Protein (#BEP) supplementation on maternal and newborn body composition from the #MISAME3 trial in rural #BurkinaFaso! @IrssF @IFPRI @ResearchUGent doi.org/10.1371/journal.pmed…
ALT Maternal and infant body composition was assessed using D₂O. During the 3ʳᵈ week postpartum, 3 saliva samples were taken from each subject. Infants received 1g and mothers 6g of D₂O. Saliva samples were taken at specific intervals, stored at low temperatures, and transported to the lab weekly. The D₂O concentrations were measured with FTIR spectrophotometry.

Evenwicht en variatie tussen verschillende voedselgroepen zijn hoekstenen voor een gezond en milieuverantwoord voedingspatroon. De term variatie moet mogelijks nog ruimer worden ingevuld.

Study in #BurkinaFaso shows:
Compared to iron–folic acid tablets, prenatal balanced energy–protein supplements...
❌Had no significant effect on prevalence of small-for-gestational age
✔️Reduced prevalence of low birth weight
✔️Increased birth weight

NERC just sent an email out recognising that the cost of living increase means its PhD stipend isn't sufficient to live on.
Their solution isn't to increase it, it's to suggest students start selling Avon and sign up to clinical trials...
