Diet quality was measured by the Australian Recommended Food Score (ARFS) using data derived from a validated food frequency questionnaire. Multiple linear regressions were used to evaluate relationships between change in diet quality and weight in mid-age women (n = 1999). Women in the highest tertile of ARFS change improved diet quality [mean ± SD] [7 ± 4 points], while those in the lowest [-9 ±5 points] and middle [-1±2 points] tertiles had worse diet quality at follow-up. Overall, mean weight gain was 2.3 ± 7.2 kg over nine years. Those in the highest tertile of ARFS change gained significantly less weight, compared to the lowest tertile; ß = -1.2 kg [95% CI: -2.31, -0.11; p = 0.03] after adjustment for changes in confounders and baseline weight, baseline ARFS, and total energy intake. Conclusions: Improving diet quality could be an important strategy for promoting modest weight loss and potentially contribute to preventing weight gain in mid-age women, which is important for metabolic health.]]> Thu 15 Apr 2021 11:40:59 AEST ]]> Do disparities exist between national food group recommendations and the dietary intakes of contemporary young adults? https://ogma.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:40266 Thu 07 Jul 2022 12:09:36 AEST ]]> Methyl-donor and cofactor nutrient intakes in the first 2-3 years and global DNA methylation at age 4: a prospective cohort study https://ogma.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:32077 0.05). Global DNA methylation levels in males were significantly higher than in females (median %5-mC: 1.82 vs. 1.03, males and females respectively, (P < 0.05)). Conclusion: No association was found between the intake of one-carbon metabolism nutrients during the early postnatal period and global DNA methylation levels at age four years. Higher global DNA methylation levels in males warrants further investigation.]]> Mon 23 Sep 2019 11:18:49 AEST ]]> Modifiable Risk Factors for Cardiovascular Disease Among Women With and Without a History of Hypertensive Disorders of Pregnancy https://ogma.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:50585 Fri 28 Jul 2023 16:14:52 AEST ]]> Frequency and variety of usual intakes of healthy foods, fruit, and vegetables predicts lower 6-year weight gain in young women https://ogma.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:39973 2) at baseline. Subjects/methods: A total of 4083 young women (27–31 years) in the healthy weight range (≥18.5 BMI <25 kg/m2) enroled in the Australian Longitudinal study on Women’s Health (ALSWH) were analysed. Diet quality was measured by the Australian Recommended Food Score (ARFS) and the Fruit and Vegetable Index (FAVI) using dietary data derived from a validated food frequency questionnaire. Weight change was calculated as the difference between baseline and 6-year follow-up weight (kg). Multiple linear regression models were used to analyse the association between baseline ARFS and FAVI and 6-year weight change. Results: At baseline, mean diet quality was low for both indices [ARFS (maximum 72) = 29.9 and FAVI (maximum 333) = 94.2] and women gained 3.7 kg of weight during 6 years of follow-up. Regression modelling revealed that every one point increase over 6 years in either the ARFS or FAVI score was associated with statistically significantly less weight gain over 6 years, although the amount was small (33 and 12 g, respectively). Conclusions: Higher diet quality predicts lower prospective weight gain in young women however, further research is needed over a longer follow-up period and in diverse population groups.]]> Fri 15 Jul 2022 10:18:19 AEST ]]> Global DNA methylation and cognitive and behavioral outcomes at 4 years of age: a cross-sectional study https://ogma.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:40011 p > .05), though the estimates of effect were consistently negative. Global DNA methylation levels in males were significantly higher than in females (median %5mC: 1.82 vs. 1.03, males and females, respectively, (p < .05)). Conclusion: No association was found between global DNA methylation and child cognition and behavior; however given the small sample, this study should be pooled with other cohorts in future meta-analyses.]]> Fri 15 Jul 2022 10:09:55 AEST ]]> Impact of preconception, pregnancy, and postpartum culinary nutrition education interventions: A systematic review https://ogma.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:47282 Fri 13 Jan 2023 10:24:46 AEDT ]]> Issues in measuring and interpreting diet and its contribution to obesity https://ogma.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:36380 Fri 03 Apr 2020 16:45:31 AEDT ]]>
