The objective of the study was to assess whether folic acid intake during the first trimester of pregnancy is related to asthma in the offspring by the age of 6 years.
This was a prospective cohort study of 1499 women who were followed up from the first trimester of pregnancy. Their children were followed up until they were 6 years old.
Fifty-one percent of the women used folic acid in the month before conception and 88% in the third month of pregnancy. The adjusted odds ratio for asthma per 100 μm increase in the average daily intake of folic acid was 0.98 (95% confidence interval, 0.93-1.04). For categories of daily folate intake, there was no evidence of associations with childhood asthma or evidence of any dose response relation for any time period (all P(trend) > .05).
Our results do not support any association of folic acid supplementation in pregnancy and asthma risk in offspring by age 6 years.
本研究旨在评估孕妇妊娠早期叶酸摄入量与 6 岁以下儿童哮喘之间的关系。
这是一项前瞻性队列研究,共纳入了 1499 名女性,随访时间从妊娠早期开始。对她们的孩子进行随访,直到他们 6 岁为止。
51%的女性在受孕前 1 个月使用叶酸,88%的女性在妊娠第 3 个月使用叶酸。平均每日叶酸摄入量每增加 100 μm,哮喘的调整优势比为 0.98(95%置信区间,0.93-1.04)。对于每日叶酸摄入量的类别,没有证据表明与儿童哮喘有关,也没有证据表明任何时间区间存在剂量反应关系(所有 P(趋势)>.05)。
我们的研究结果不支持妊娠期间补充叶酸与 6 岁以下儿童哮喘风险之间存在关联。
