Résumé

Exclusive breastfeeding is the best form of nutrition for infants in the first 6 months of life. The aim of this study was to determine the prevalence of exclusive breastfeeding in Tehran, Islamic Republic of Iran in the first 6 months of life, and the factors that influence it. In a population-based, cross-sectional study 538 mothers with children aged 6-24 months completed an interview questionnaire. Only 46.5% of mothers exclusively breastfed their infant in the first 6 months of life. In multivariate analysis formula supplementation in the hospital [OR = 0.41, 95% CI: 0.17-0.95] and mother receiving conflicting infant feeding advice [OR = 0.53, 95% CI: 0.37- 0.78] had a negative effect on exclusive breastfeeding. Mother's intention to exclusively breastfeed [OR = 5.85, 95% CI: 2.88-11.9] and infant having first breast contact 6-30 minutes after delivery [OR = 2.35, 95% CI: 1.17-4.72] had positive effects on exclusive breastfeeding

Résumé

This cohort study investigated the effect of early life nutrition on later performance in developmental milestones and cognitive tests. Structural equation modelling was carried out on follow-up data from a national birth cohort of 5362 children born in 1 week of 1946 in Britain. Children who were breastfed longer showed earlier developmental milestones. After adjusting for sex, social group and milestones, those children scored higher in verbal tests. Path analysis showed that breastfeeding may have an effect even into adult life. The chain of path coefficients from breastfeeding to developmental milestones at early ages, to cognitive scores at ages 8-15 years, to reading tests at age 26 years and to memory and visual tests at age 43 years were significant in females but not in males
