Nutrition During Pregnancy: Part I, Weight Gain; Part II, Nutrient Supplements

Luke, Barbara·1991·JAMA: The Journal of the American Medical Association

Abstract

Twenty years ago, the Food and Nutrition Board issued its landmark report,Maternal Nutrition and the Course and Outcome of Pregnancy. Since that time, both the amount and sophistication of research in maternal nutrition have grown rapidly and have provided clear evidence of the link between perinatal nutrition and pregnacy outcome. During these same years, national attention has turned away from high-technology solutions to the problems of low birth weight and preterm delivery and has focused on the potential therapeutic effects of traditional modalities such as nutrition. The emergence of maternal nutrition as a pivotal factor in the outcome of pregnancy has recently been underscored by the recognition of its central role in the prevention of prenatal mental retardation in patients with maternal phenylketonuria and its potential effect in the prevention of neural tube defects. This latest National Academy of Sciences report provides a balanced and indepth presentation of research

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
