Conclusion: Although midwives appear aware of key clinical recommendations for optimal antenatal asthma management, low referral to clinical practice guidelines and lack of knowledge and confidence was evident. Further research is required to determine what care pregnant women with asthma are actually receiving and identify strategies to improve antenatal asthma management by midwives.]]> Wed 15 Sep 2021 14:46:44 AEST ]]> Participants in an online weight loss program can improve diet quality during weight loss: a randomized controlled trial https://nova.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:15546 Wed 11 Apr 2018 15:46:26 AEST ]]> Plasma carotenoid levels as biomarkers of dietary carotenoid consumption: a systematic review of the validation studies https://nova.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:22632 Wed 11 Apr 2018 12:53:03 AEST ]]> Vitamin D for the management of asthma https://nova.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:26006 Wed 06 Apr 2022 14:02:24 AEST ]]> Are pregnant women with asthma receiving guideline-recommended antenatal asthma management? A survey of pregnant women receiving usual care in Australia https://nova.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:48433 Thu 16 Mar 2023 14:17:56 AEDT ]]> Maternal diet during early childhood, but not pregnancy, predicts diet quality and fruit and vegetable acceptance in offspring https://nova.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:26813 in utero results in acceptance of a greater variety of these foods and better diet quality for offspring during childhood. This study is a secondary data analysis of pregnant women (n=52) and their resulting offspring recruited for the Women and Their Children's Health study in NSW, Australia. Dietary intake of mothers and children was measured using food frequency questionnaires. Diet quality and vegetable and fruit variety were calculated using the Australian Recommended Food Score and the Australian Child and Adolescent Recommended Food Score. Associations between maternal and child diet quality and variety were assessed using Pearson's correlations and the total effect of in utero maternal pregnancy diet on childhood diet was decomposed into direct and indirect effect using mediation analysis. Maternal pregnancy and post-natal diet were both correlated with child diet for overall diet quality and fruit and vegetable variety (P<0.001). Mediation analyses showed that the indirect effect of maternal pregnancy diet on child diet was mediated through maternal post-natal diet, particularly for fruit (P=0.045) and vegetables (P=0.055). Nutrition intervention should therefore be aimed at improving diet quality and variety in mothers with young children, in order to subsequently improve eating habits of offspring.]]> Sat 24 Mar 2018 07:36:28 AEDT ]]> A systematic review of technology-based dietary intake assessment validation studies that include carotenoid biomarkers https://nova.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:29922 Fri 24 Aug 2018 09:03:14 AEST ]]>
