“…About income, it is known that in Brazil, the public health system is more sought after by the lowincome and lower-income population, unlike what happens in developed countries, where public network users do not always have this profile (11) . Regarding the labor market, the results of this study are in line with the findings of another study conducted in a school hospital located in Turkey, where 87.0% of the mothers of infants admitted to the Intensive Care Unit did not work (12) .…”

Objective: to identify the epidemiological profile newborns´ mothers hospitalized in a public neonatal unit. Methods: this is a descriptive and cross-sectional study of 57 mothers and 58 infants who were admitted to the neonatal unit. Results: it was observed that most of the women had unfavorable sociodemographic conditions, had intercurrences during pregnancy and although most of them had performed the recommended number of prenatal consultations, the hospitalization of the newborn in a specialized unit leads to questioning the quality of this care. Conclusion: a risk profile for admission of newborns in a specialized unit was identified, since most of the women had unfavorable sociodemographic conditions and presented intercurrences during pregnancy.

Métodos: estudo descritivo e transversal, realizado com 57 mães e 58 bebês que ficaram internados na unidade neonatal. Resultados: observou-se que a maioria das mulheres tinha condições sociodemográficas desfavoráveis, apresentou intercorrências na gestação e, apesar da maior parte ter realizado o número preconizado de consultas de pré-natal, o internamento do recém-nascido em Unidade especializada leva ao questionamento da qualidade dessa assistência. Conclusão: identificou-se perfil de risco para admissão de recém-nascidos em Unidade especializada, pois a maioria das mulheres tinha condições sociodemográficas desfavoráveis e apresentou intercorrências na gestação.

“…This same prevalence was found in pregnant women attended at the public maternity hospitals in the city of Natal-RN. 8 Wondmikun 1 found 42% of low alpha-tocopherol levels in pregnant women at their third quarter in Ethiopia, characterized as low socioeconomic condition. However, the cut-off point adopted for this assessment was twice as considered to classify the deficiency in this study (<1,034 μg/dL).…”

“…24,26,27 In this study influence of socioeconomic characteristics with alpha-tocopherol serum levels and maternal vitamin E deficiency were not found (Table 2), a result similar to a cohort on pregnant women in the Peru. 3 Gurgel et al, 8 observed that women who were attended for childbirth in the private health network were more likely to have satisfactory vitamin concentrations (OR= 0.3; CI95%: 0.1-0.8). The authors suggest that this result may have been due to the everyday intake of dietary supplements with alpha-tocopherol during the gestation, since it is known that the use of food combinations to supplements have a protective effect against vitamin deficiency.…”

“…6,7 There are few studies that investigate the associated factors with maternal vitamin E deficiency (DVE). Gurgel et al 8 found a high prevalence of the deficiency in women attended for the delivery in public maternities when compared to those attended at a private health network. Dimenstein et al 9 found no differences in the alpha-tocopherol serum level according to maternal age; and another study also found no differences in this micronutrient in parturient according to age, parity and gestational weight gain.…”

“…The composition of these vitamins in milk is known to vary according to the stage of lactation, the period of feeding (Ribeiro & Dimenstein, ), prematurity (Rodrigues, ), and different populations (Gurgel et al, ; Jiang et al, ; Lima et al, ). Nevertheless, there is no consensus yet as to whether maternal nutritional status and dietary intake can directly affect the concentrations of these vitamins in milk.…”

This study evaluated the nutritional status of lactating women with regard to vitamins A and E and the relationship between dietary intake and concentrations in serum and milk. A longitudinal study was conducted with 43 women at a hospital in northeastern Brazil. Blood and milk samples and food intake recalls were obtained at three moments during the breastfeeding period. Retinol and alphatocopherol were analysed by high-performance liquid chromatography. Dietary inadequacy was analysed according to the estimated average requirement, with intrapersonal variation adjusted by the multiple source method. Food intake was classified by quartiles of consumption. Serum retinol was 1.65 μmol/L, with 5% of low concentrations (<0.7 μmol/L) at the first collection. Serum alpha-tocopherol decreased from 30.18 to 25.49 μmol/L at the third collection (P = 0.008), with an increase in the percentage frequency of deficiency (<12 μmol/L). Both vitamins maintained stable concentrations in milk at the different collection times, and the overall dietary inadequacy of vitamins A and E was 58% and 100%, respectively.There was a correlation only between vitamin A intake and serum retinol (r = 0.403, P = 0.007), and higher retinol concentrations were found in women classified in the highest consumption quartile (P = 0.031). Over the course of lactation, there was a high degree of inadequacy in vitamin intake and a reduction in serum alpha-tocopherol, whereas its concentrations in milk remained unchanged.Dietary intake of vitamin A has been shown to influence serum retinol, which underscores the importance of adequate nutrition and monitoring of vitamin deficiency during lactation.

Abstract: These results highlight that women assisted in the public sector were more vulnerable to developing low concentrations of alpha-tocopherol than women assisted in the private sector.
