“…Similarly, Wang et al (2019) [6] showed that individuals aged 2-6 years in South California (US) who were breastfed longer than 6 months had only slightly lower We also presented that maternal education and body birth weight may be an important factor for proper shaping BMI in later life. In other investigations which tackle the problem of maternal education impact on the offspring BMI the results were similar -the better educated mothers the lower BMI of their offspring [11,17,18]. In the case of birth body parameters we presumed that higher birth body weight is connected with higher BMI values in later stages of life, since 4-56 months of life to adulthood [11,13,14,19].…”

“…Beside importance of breastfeeding, familial factors such as parental education seem to be important covariates for body mass and body proportion. In the study which tackled the problem of familial factors and body composition among Polish children aged 6-13 years it was showed that children whose mothers had basic educational level had excess body fat and BMI [11].…”

Objectives: Breastfeeding in the first years of life seems to be an important factor affecting the shaping the body mass, and body mass/height proportion during first months of life, that importantly differentiates body mass and body proportion at the later stages of the human ontogenesis. The aim of this study was to evaluate if duration of breastfeeding affects BMI in later life.Material: In the analysis 470 children born in time, aged 8-49 months were included. The data came from the nurseries in Lodz (central Poland) where children' parents filed the questionnaires and was collected in years 1993-1997. In the analysis were included information about: duration of breastfeeding, parental educational level, birth body weight, birth body length. The BMI was standardized on sex and age of the children. The stepwise regression models were used to evaluate the hypothesis. The obtained residues for BMI were used to verify only breastfeeding impact using the regression analysis.Results: The regression model included parental education level and birth parameters were used to adjust BMI on them and revealed that low educated mothers had children with higher BMI (Beta=0.213; p<0.015). Additionally heavier newborns had higher BMI at the later stages of ontogenesis (Beta=0.207; p<0.001). There were made two regression analyses using BMI residues. The first one treated breastfeeding as categories, and revealed that children breastfed over 6 months vs. not breastfed or breastfed no longer than 1 month had lower BMI (Beta=-0.098; p<0.030). The second model treated duration of breastfeeding as a continuous variable, and showed that breastfeeding duration was inversely correlated with BMI residues (Beta=-0.092; p=0.042).Conclusions: Duration of breastfeeding differentiates the BMI among Polish children aged 8-49 months and seems to reduce BMI in further life.Trial registration: This study was conducted according to the guidelines laid down in the Declaration of Helsinki and all procedures involving research study participants were approved retrospectively by the Ethical Commission at the University of Lodz (NR21/KBBN- UŁ/I/2018). Written informed consent was obtained from all subjects' parents.

Background: Biobank Laboratory of the University of Łódź is a unit in the organizational structure of the Department of Molecular Biophysics at the Faculty of Biology and Environmental Protection. It was established in 2014 as one of the results of the TESTOPLEK project. One of the main goals of the unit is to collect and share biological material of human origin and related clinical and survey data. Moreover, Biobank Laboratory conducts work in the field of genetics and molecular biology on human biological material. Biobank Laboratory gathers over 40.000 samples such as DNA, FFPE, saliva, together with their data. Data about its material is available for researchers in directories e.g. BBMRI-ERIC Directory 4.0. Since 2014, the unit belongs to the national Consortium BBMRI.pl, and since 2017 it executes a project entitled Research Infrastructure for Biobanks and Biomolecular Resources BBMRI-ERIC, co-creating the Polish Network of Biobanks. Biobank Laboratory is focused on cooperation with domestic and foreign scientific institutions and medical units, as well as entities from the local, business and public sector.
