However, few studies have shown how the place of birth, presenting part, and delivery mode affect the cardiovascular risk in later life.…”

To investigate the relationship between perinatal condition around birth and cardiovascular risk in later life. Methods: Retrospective data were examined from 1241 city dwellers (521 men, 720 women; age 41-69 years) who had undergone medical examination at a single institution including blood tests and physical measurements from 2007 to 2008. The questionnaire was conducted to determine how perinatal factors affect their lives later. We also selected and studied a total of 28 individuals (12 men and 16 women) specifically about the conformity rate of the breastfeeding method between participants' memories and what was written in the maternal and child health handbooks. Results: The conformity rate of the breastfeeding method between a self-questionnaire and his/her maternal and child health handbook was well correlated (r 0.73; p 0.025). Among the data in women who were born at home, HbA1C levels (5.36 0.03 vs. 5.25 0.05 mg/dL, p 0.03) and low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (136.0 1.4 vs. 129.3 2.5 mg/dL, p 0.04) were higher than women who were born at the hospital. Women raised by formula showed higher low-density lipoprotein cholesterol levels than women fed breast milk or a mixture of breast milk and formula (150.2 4.8 vs. 138.7 3.7, 142.5 2.6 mg/dL, p 0.04). Fasting blood glucose levels at an adult time in men and women born through breech presentation were higher than those by the cephalic presentation (123.2 7.8 vs. 106.8 1.2 mg/dL, p 0.03). Conclusion: The study proposed that some perinatal conditions around birth such as delivery place, presenting part, and lactation affected especially Japanese women's cardiovascular risks between ages 41 and 69 years. cular diseases in adulthood include during the periconceptional, fetal, and infant phases of life. Research in evolutionary biology, developmental biology, and animal and human physiology has provided support for this idea 2, 3). Initially, genetic factors may mostly influence fetal development and growth. However, when development is inhibited by maternal constraint (physics, size of the pelvis, nutritional status, primiparous, placental function) a PARs (predictive adaptive Copyright©2019 Japan Atherosclerosis Society This article is distributed under the terms of the latest version of CC BY-NC-SA defined by the Creative Commons Attribution License.

Duration of lactation was collected through an open-ended questionnaire, and the women were divided into four groups according to their total lifetime duration of breastfeeding: ≤5, 6-11, 12-23, or ≥24 months.…”

Cardiovascular disease (CVD) is the leading cause of death of women across all ages, and targeting modifiable risk factors, such as those comprised in metabolic syndrome (MetS) (e.g., waist circumference, lipid profile, blood pressure, and blood glucose), is of great importance. An inverse association between lactation and CVD has been suggested, and lactation may decrease the risk of MetS. This systematic review and meta-analysis examined how lactation may affect the development and prevalence of MetS in women. A literature search was performed using Cinahl, Embase, Web of Science, and PubMed. A total of 1286 citations were identified, and finally, ten studies (two prospective and eight cross-sectional) were included. Seven studies (two prospective and five cross-sectional) revealed associations between lactation and MetS, suggesting that breastfeeding might prevent or improve metabolic health and have a protective role in MetS prevention. This protective role might be related to the duration of lactation; however, a lack of controlling for potential confounders, such as parity, might inflict the results. The pooled effect was non-conclusive. Additional research is required to further explore the duration of lactation and its potential role in improving or reversing MetS and its components.

“…Breastfeeding is associated with many maternal health benefits in addition to improved infant health outcomes including lower risk of infection, obesity, diabetes, and sudden infant death syndrome (“Breastfeeding and the use of human milk,” ). Women who breastfeed have decreased risk for metabolic syndrome (Choi, Kim, Cho, Kim, & Shim, ; Gunderson et al, ; Ram et al, ), Type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM; Ip et al, ; Schwarz et al, ; Stuebe, Rich‐Edwards, Willett, Manson, & Michels, ), cardiovascular disease (CVD; Peters et al, ; Schwarz et al, ; Stuebe et al, ), and cancer (Chowdhury et al, ; Ip et al, ) and decreased all‐cause mortality (Bartick et al, ) in later life compared with women who do not breastfeed. Several studies have reported that the degree of maternal health benefit is proportional to lactation intensity and duration, suggestive of a dose–response relationship (Gunderson et al, ; Peters et al, ; Ziegler et al, ).…”

Exclusive breastfeeding (EBF) has numerous maternal health benefits. However, EBF rates are lower in mothers with obesity. We sought to better understand whether maternal body composition measurements in early pregnancy are also predictive of lower rates of EBF. Healthy pregnant women with prepregnancy body mass index (BMI) of 17.5-51 kg/m 2 underwent determination of percent body fat (% body fat) in early (12-16 weeks) and late (37 weeks) gestation. Intent and duration of EBF were determined by surveys completed at 6 weeks and 6 months postpartum (PP).Unadjusted and adjusted analyses were performed to compare EBF rates and weaning by maternal BMI and % body fat. Increasing BMI and % body fat in early pregnancy were significantly associated with lower rates of EBF among women intending EBF.Women with BMI ≥ 25 were less likely to be EBF at 6 weeks and 6 months PP compared with women of normal BMI (67 and 37% vs. 91 and 79%, P value 0.005 and 0.001, respectively). Among primiparous women intending EBF, 100% of women in the lowest two body fat quartiles in early pregnancy were EBF at 6 weeks PP compared with 66.7 and 63.6% of women in the higher quartiles (P = 0.03). Lactation cessation by 6 months PP was higher with increasing maternal BMI (P = 0.001). Maternal obesity in early gestation is associated with lower EBF rates among women intending EBF and earlier weaning. Excess adiposity in early pregnancy may impede EBF.
