We studied trends in fish intake among pregnant women living in the Madeira River Basin in Rondônia State, Brazil, to investigate the influence of maternal fish intake on anthropometric indices of children followed up to 5 years. Maternal fish intake was assessed using hair mercury concentrations of mothers and children at delivery and 6, 24, and 59 months. Data analysis was performed using a linear mixed-effect model. Mothers were predominantly young, had low incomes and limited schooling, and breastfed for >6 months. Only 1.9% of children had low birth weight. Anthropometric indices in approximately 80% of the study population showed Z-score values ranging from ≥−2 to ≤1. The influence of maternal fish intake on anthropometric indices, including height-to-age (H/A), weight-to-age (W/A), and weight-to-height (W/H) were not statistically significant after model adjustments. However, higher income and larger birth weight had a positive influence on H/A and W/A, whereas W/H gain was favored by higher maternal educational status and breastfeeding duration. Other variables (hemoglobin concentration and maternal age) had a positive significant influence on anthropometric indices. Maternal fish intake (or its attendant MeHg exposure) did not affect children growth. Nevertheless, it is advisable to avoid mercury-contaminated fish during pregnancy and childhood.

Abstract Objectives: To determine the compliance rate of iron supplementation during pregnancy and the hemoglobin concentration in second trimester and at term.Methods: The study conducted among term pregnant women admission to the hospital for delivery who had non-anemic status at the initial visit for antenatal care, received daily iron supplementation before 20 weeks of gestation. They were interviewed to obtain the personal data, daily taking the supplemented tablet and side-effects. The compliance rate categorized as >80%, >50-80%, 25-50%, and < 25% according to the women’s response that they took daily tablet of 6-7, 3-5, 2, and 0-1 days/week, respectively. The type of supplementation and laboratory results of hemoglobin level were retrieved from their medical records.Results: Almost 90% of 350 participants had the compliance rate of >80%. The common side-effects were nausea and constipation. The side-effect rates were 10.5%, 12.1%, 66.7% in >80%, >50-80%, <25% compliance groups, respectively. In second trimester and term pregnancy revealed some anemic women. While hemoglobin concentrations above 13 gm/dl, which defined as high concentrated hemoglobin, revealed 12% during second trimester, and up to 30% at term in high compliance group.Conclusions: There was high compliance rate of iron supplementation with the high hemoglobin level markedly found in high compliance group.

Morris Hepatoma

The cellular uptake and lysosomal accumulation of 67Ga-labelled transferrin within tumors of different malignancy were examined using tissue fractionation and immunological techniques. As tumor models the slowly growing Morris hepatoma 5123C, the moderately growing Novikoff hepatoma and the fast and aggressive Yoshida hepatoma AH 130 were investigated. Isolation of subcellular fractions of tumor homogenates was performed by differential centrifugation and density-gradient centrifugation. The intracellular 67Gatransferrin was found to be highly concentrated within the purified lysosomes. The transferrin within the lysosomal fraction was identified by radial immunodiffusion technique using monospecific antiserum. The accumulation of 67Gatransferrin by the tumors resulted in a faster disappearance of 67Ga-transferrin from the blood. This loss of circulating 67Ga-transferrin correlated with the proliferation activity and the spread of the tumors. Since transferrin is indispensible for the utilization of iron by the heme-synthesizing red cell precursors, transferrin concentration in the blood is the limiting factor for the utilization of iron in hemoglobin synthesis. Thus, in a further series of experiments we investigated the development of anemia in tumor-bearing rats. With increasing tumor mass a progressive fall of hemoglobin concentration was found. The anemia was more severe in the faster growing Novikoff hepatoma than in the slowly growing Morris hepatoma. The most significant reduction of hemoglobin concentration was found in the very fast growing Yoshida hepatoma. After total tumor resection hemoglobin concentration and red blood cell count normalized completely within 6-8 weeks. We conclude from these data that the uptake of transferrin by the tumor cells results in a faster disappearance of transferrin from the blood. This loss of circulating transferrin correlates with tumor mass and proliferation activity and is one of the factors responsible for the anemia seen in patients with malignant tumors.
