1.
The validation of an LC-MS/MS method for the quantification of vitamin D metabolites in human milk and their biological variability in Gambian women
Jones K, Meadows S, Billing G, Koulman A, Prentice A
J Steroid Biochem Mol Biol . 2024 Nov; 245:106633. PMID: 39547286
Vitamin D is required for healthy growth and development, but data on human milk vitamin D content is limited. We describe a liquid chromatography tandem mass spectrometry (LC-MS/MS) method for...

Vertebral fracture prevalence and risk factors for fracture in The Gambia, West Africa: the Gambian Bone and Muscle Ageing Study
Ward K, Jarjou L, Pearse C, Breasail M, Janha R, Zengin A, et al.
J Bone Miner Res . 2024 Nov; 40(1):50-58. PMID: 39509262
There are limited data describing the epidemiology of vertebral fractures (VF) from resource-limited settings, where the aging population is growing most rapidly. We aimed to determine the prevalence, incidence, and...

Effects of maternal calcium supplementation on offspring blood pressure and growth in childhood and adolescence in a population with a low-calcium intake: follow-up study of a randomized controlled trial
Prentice A, Jarjou L, Goldberg G, Schoenbuchner S, Moore S, Ward K, et al.
Am J Clin Nutr . 2024 Jun; 119(6):1443-1454. PMID: 38839195
Background: The World Health Organization recommends calcium supplementation (1500-2000 mg/d) during pregnancy for women with a low-calcium intake. Objectives: The purpose of this study was to investigate whether pregnancy calcium...

Biochemical Markers of Calcium and Bone Metabolism during and after Lactation in Ugandan Women with HIV on Universal Maternal Antiretroviral Therapy
Nabwire F, Hamill M, Fowler M, Byamugisha J, Kekitiinwa A, Prentice A
J Bone Miner Res . 2023 Jun; 38(9):1296-1311. PMID: 37306529
We reported accentuated lactational decreases in areal bone mineral density and only partial skeletal recovery after lactation in Ugandan women with HIV (WWH) initiated on tenofovir disoproxil fumarate-based antiretroviral therapy...

Cross-Calibration of iDXA and pQCT Scanners at Rural and Urban Research Sites in The Gambia, West Africa
Breasail M, Janha R, Zengin A, Pearse C, Jarjou L, Prentice A, et al.
Calcif Tissue Int . 2023 Mar; 112(5):573-583. PMID: 36859609
Between-scanner differences in measures of bone and body composition can obscure or exaggerate physiological differences in multi-site studies or the magnitude of changes in longitudinal studies. We conducted a cross-calibration...

Milk Calcium and Phosphorus in Ugandan Women with HIV on Tenofovir-Based Antiretroviral Therapy
Nabwire F, Hamill M, Fowler M, Kekitiinwa A, Prentice A
J Hum Lact . 2023 Jan; 39(2):288-299. PMID: 36715180
Background: Breastfed infants depend on human milk calcium and phosphorus for bone mineral accretion and growth. We reported greater mobilization of bone mineral and delayed skeletal recovery in lactating Ugandan...

Development of musculoskeletal deficits in children with cystic fibrosis in later childhood
Ireland A, Riddell A, Colombo A, Ross-Russell R, Prentice A, Ward K
Bone . 2023 Jan; 170:116657. PMID: 36690166
Cystic fibrosis (CF) is a genetic condition primarily affecting the respiratory system, with the associated progressive lung damage and loss of function resulting in reduced lifespan. Bone health is also...

Does antenatal cholecalciferol supplementation affect the mode or timing of delivery? Post hoc analyses of the MAVIDOS randomized controlled trial
Moon R, DAngelo S, Crozier S, Curtis E, Fernandes M, Kermack A, et al.
J Public Health (Oxf) . 2022 Dec; 45(3):738-747. PMID: 36585903
Background: Observational studies relating maternal 25-hydroxyvitamin D status to timing and mode of delivery have reported inconsistent results. We assessed the effect of antenatal cholecalciferol supplementation on the incidence of...

Sex-specific associations between cardiovascular risk factors and physical function: the Gambian Bone and Muscle Ageing Study
Zengin A, Breasail M, Parsons C, Jarjou L, Janha R, Jobe M, et al.
J Cachexia Sarcopenia Muscle . 2022 Nov; 14(1):84-92. PMID: 36346161
Background: In Sub-Saharan Africa, the prevalence of obesity, cardiovascular disease (CVD) and impaired physical function are increasing due to rapid urbanization. We investigated sex differences in associations between cardiac workload,...

Longitudinal Change in Bone Density, Geometry, and Estimated Bone Strength in Older Men and Women From The Gambia: Findings From the Gambian Bone and Muscle Aging Study (GamBAS)
Breasail M, Pearse C, Zengin A, Jarjou L, Cooper C, Ebeling P, et al.
J Bone Miner Res . 2022 Oct; 38(1):48-58. PMID: 36270918
Musculoskeletal aging in the most resource-limited countries has not been quantified, and longitudinal data are urgently needed to inform policy. The aim of this prospective study was to describe musculoskeletal...
