Gridneva Z, Rea A, Hepworth A, Ward L, Lai C, Hartmann P, et al.
Nutrients . 2018 Jan; 10(1). PMID: 29303992
Breastfeeding has been implicated in the establishment of infant appetite regulation, feeding patterns and body composition (BC). A holistic approach is required to elucidate relationships between infant and maternal BC...

Perrella S, Hepworth A, Gridneva Z, Simmer K, Hartmann P, Geddes D
Pediatr Res . 2017 Nov; 83(4):778-783. PMID: 29166375
BackgroundPreterm infants' meals typically progress to higher volumes over time. Knowledge of gastric emptying (GE) responses to differing meal volumes may inform enteral feeding management. We examined the effect of...

Geddes D, Chooi K, Nancarrow K, Hepworth A, Gardner H, Simmer K
BMC Pregnancy Childbirth . 2017 Nov; 17(1):386. PMID: 29149869
Background: Full breastfeeding is the ultimate aim for preterm infants to ensure they receive the full benefits of human milk however, preterm infants face a number of challenges associated with...

Cannon A, Gridneva Z, Hepworth A, Lai C, Tie W, Khan S, et al.
Pediatr Res . 2017 Mar; 82(1):72-78. PMID: 28355195
BackgroundInfants breastfed on demand exhibit a variety of feeding patterns and self-regulate their nutrient intake, but factors influencing their gastric emptying (GE) are poorly understood. Despite research into appetite regulation...

Kugananthan S, Gridneva Z, Lai C, Hepworth A, Mark P, Kakulas F, et al.
Nutrients . 2017 Mar; 9(3). PMID: 28282925
Human milk (HM) appetite hormones and macronutrients may mediate satiety in breastfed infants. This study investigated associations between maternal adiposity and concentrations of HM leptin, adiponectin, protein and lactose, and...

Gridneva Z, Kugananthan S, Hepworth A, Tie W, Lai C, Ward L, et al.
Nutrients . 2016 Dec; 9(1). PMID: 28036041
Human milk (HM) components influence infant feeding patterns and nutrient intake, yet it is unclear how they influence gastric emptying (GE), a key component of appetite regulation. This study analyzed...

Gridneva Z, Hepworth A, Ward L, Lai C, Hartmann P, Geddes D
Pediatr Res . 2016 Nov; 81(3):423-433. PMID: 27828939
Background: Accurate, noninvasive, and inexpensive methods are required to measure infant body composition. Ultrasound (US) and bioimpedance spectroscopy (BIS) have been validated in adults and introduced in pediatric populations. The...

Cannon A, Kakulas F, Hepworth A, Lai C, Hartmann P, Geddes D
Int J Environ Res Public Health . 2015 Oct; 12(10):12340-55. PMID: 26437426
Breastfed infants have a reduced risk of becoming overweight and/or obese later in life. This protective effect has been partly attributed to leptin present in breastmilk. This study investigated 24-h...

McClellan H, Kent J, Hepworth A, Hartmann P, Geddes D
Int J Environ Res Public Health . 2015 Sep; 12(9):10833-45. PMID: 26404342
Background: Infants of breastfeeding mothers with persistent nipple pain have been shown to apply stronger vacuums to the breast and transfer less milk during one monitored feed. This may be...

Sci Rep . 2015 Aug; 5:12933. PMID: 26255679
Breastmilk is a rich source of cells with a heterogeneous composition comprising early-stage stem cells, progenitors and more differentiated cells. The gene expression profiles of these cells and their associations...
