NCT ID: NCT06091917 Recruiting - Infant Growth Clinical Trials

Modulating Early-life Nutrition for Childhood Obesity Prevention

NutrOb
Start date: October 31, 2023
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

In this study, betaine intake will be increased in formula-fed infants through formula milk supplementation. To do this, a double-blind randomized study has been designed with the supplementation group (infant formula supplemented with betaine) and control group (unsupplemented infant formula). The main objectives of the study are to determine the safety of supplementation and to assess whether there are changes in infant growth.

NCT ID: NCT05804214 Terminated - Infant Growth Clinical Trials

Observational Study of Infants Fed With Dairy and Plant Based Infant Formula

Complement
Start date: April 11, 2023
Phase:
Study type: Observational

A study to assess and evaluate adequate growth in infants receiving a dairy and plant based infant formula in a real-world setting, and parents' and infants' experiences with this infant formula.

NCT ID: NCT05119166 Recruiting - Maternal Health Clinical Trials

International Milk Composition (IMiC) Consortium

IMiC
Start date: November 17, 2019
Phase:
Study type: Observational

The IMiC Consortium will analyze milk from 1000 mother-infant dyads across 4 diverse settings (Tanzania, Pakistan, Burkina Faso and Canada). Samples will be stored centrally at the Manitoba Interdisciplinary Lactation Centre (MILC) biorepository and distributed to multiple laboratories for analysis of macronutrients, micronutrients, oligosaccharides, growth factors, immunoglobulins, cytokines, metabolites and microbes. Data will be harmonized and stored in a central database, and diverse statistical methods will be applied for data integration and analysis.

NCT ID: NCT04306263 Recruiting - Infant Growth Clinical Trials

Effect of a New Infant Formula With Specific Ingredients

EARLY-TOLERA
Start date: March 2, 2020
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

The purpose of this study is to test whether the addition of certain bioactive ingredients to a new infant formula (HMOs, osteopontin and probiotics) can have a favorable impact on the development of the infant's immune system in the first months of life.

NCT ID: NCT03993860 Completed - Infant Growth Clinical Trials

Introduction of Fish Early in the Complementary Feeding Period to Improve Infant Growth

Start date: April 4, 2019
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

The aim of the study is to provide proof that giving fish during early complementary feeding improves infant linear growth outcomes.

NCT ID: NCT03808207 Recruiting - Breastfeeding Clinical Trials

Human Milk Lipid Profile Assessment and Influences of Mother's Diet

Start date: August 6, 2018
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

Human milk profile is unique and diet exerts a pivot role in determing its composition. As a rule, nursing mothers do not receive specific nutritional indications aimed at improving the lipid profile of milk, despite the scientific evidence in favor of the importance of DHA in the infant's diet. The research aims to determine the effect of a dietary counseling specifically targeted at increasing the intake of fatty acids ω3 (DHA, EPA and ALA) on the lipid profile of breast milk, in order to identify effective and viable nutrition claims for breastfeeding women.

NCT ID: NCT02307760 Completed - Infant Growth Clinical Trials

Evaluation of Human Milk Fortifiers in Preterm Infants

Start date: December 2014
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

The purpose of this study is to assess growth of preterm infants fed human milk supplemented with one of two commercially available human milk fortifiers.

NCT ID: NCT02142647 Completed - Infant Growth Clinical Trials

Effect of Protein From Complementary Foods on Infant Growth, Body Composition and Gut Health

Start date: March 2014
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

Current research shows that dairy protein accelerates infant weight gain, which is a risk factor for later on obesity and metabolic syndrome. However, dietary protein from other sources haven't been studied yet. This longitudinal study will compare two complementary feeding regimens with dietary protein mainly from 1) meat; 2) dairy on infant growth, body composition and gut microbiome from 5 to 12 months of age in formula fed infants. Healthy infants at approximately 5 months of age will be randomized to either a meat protein, or a dairy protein group with complementary protein mainly from meat or dairy. Infants will consume one of these diets for 7 months (6-12 months of age) and infant growth, body composition, growth biomarkers and gut microbiome will be measured to compare between groups and over time.

NCT ID: NCT02111837 Completed - Infant Growth Clinical Trials

Effects of Specific Lipid Fractions-enriched Infant Formulae

Start date: November 2009
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

This is a multicenter, randomized, double-blind, parallel-group, reference-controlled 4-month pilot safety study to evaluate the effects of specific lipid fractions-enriched infant formulae on growth of infants aged 0-4 months. The study will test the hypothesis that growth of infants fed the specific lipid fractions-enriched infant formulae will be noninferior to growth of infants fed standard infant formula.

NCT ID: NCT01084109 Completed - Clinical trials for Complementary Feeding

First Bites: Complementary Feeding - A Global Network Cluster Randomized Controlled Trial

First Bites
Start date: July 2008
Phase: Phase 3
Study type: Interventional

The specific aims of this project is to determine the impact of a daily intake of one half ounce of lyophilized meat between 6-18 months of age (0.5 oz for 6-12 mo; 0.75 oz for 12-18 mo) on linear growth velocity, zinc and iron intakes and status, brain growth and neurocognitive development, and infectious disease morbidity in populations traditionally dependent on non-micronutrient fortified plant foods for complementary feeding.
