The discussion regarding the promotion of fundamental aspects of health and human well-being must consider the critical window between late childhood and early adolescence. To this end, information on trajectories resulting from a balance of opportunities and adversities from previous phases, in a broader way, is crucial. This project aims (i) to characterize classes of trajectories of nu…
In this project, neuropsychomotor development profiles during early childhood will be investigated in relation to the construction of educational indicators among children aged 9-10 years in Cruzeiro do Sul (AC), characterizing associations with behavioral and sociability outcomes. The doctoral student will develop modeling of child development profiles considering repeated measures of gl…
With the aim of investigating the association of nutrition trajectories with the metabolic profile of children aged 9-10 years in Cruzeiro do Sul (AC), a doctoral student will develop trajectory modeling of profiles considering repeated measurements of weight and height together with micronutrient status (iron and vitamins A and D), which are recognized components of the malnutrition spec…
The double burden of malnutrition (DBM) is the coexistence of parameters related to undernutrition and overnutrition as observed at the population level; at the family level, in an intergenerational perspective in the mother-child pair; or at the individual level, mainly in low- and middle-income regions. The DBM during childhood may be connected to health problems in adulthood, but prosp…
Vitamin D is an essential liposoluble micronutrient obtained mainly from exposure to ultraviolet B light, but also from diet. Vitamin D deficiency in early childhood may be related to characteristics such as inadequate sun exposure and overweight, with evidence of association with lower vitamin levels. Because of its role in growth and development processes, including the regulation of mu…
The double burden of malnutrition (DBM) is described as the coexistence of under and overnutrition at the population level; at the household level, considering the mother-child dyad in an intergenerational perspective; or at the individual level. Mainly occurring in low- and medium-income countries, DBM during childhood can lead to health issues throughout life. However, there is a lack o…
