The Potential for Bouillon Fortification to Reduce Dietary Micronutrient Inadequacy: Modeling Analyses Using National Survey Data from Cameroon, Ghana, and Haiti
Engle-Stone R, Kumordzie S, Luo H, Wessells K, Adu-Afarwuah S, Njebayi A, et al.
Curr Dev Nutr . 2024 Dec; 8(11):104485. PMID: 39640380
Background: Bouillon is commonly consumed in some countries where micronutrient deficiencies are prevalent, but it has not been widely adopted as a micronutrient fortification vehicle. Objectives: We modeled the potential...

Use of Population-Based Compartmental Modeling and Retinol Isotope Dilution to Study Vitamin A Kinetics and Total Body Stores among Ghanaian Women of Reproductive Age
Green M, Lopez-Teros V, Green J, Lietz G, Kumordzie S, Oxley A, et al.
Curr Dev Nutr . 2024 Dec; 8(11):104484. PMID: 39634788
Background: Limited data are available on vitamin A kinetics and total body stores (TBS) in women. Such information can be obtained using compartmental modeling and retinol isotope dilution (RID). Objectives:...

Effect of multiple micronutrient-fortified bouillon on micronutrient status among women and children in the Northern Region of Ghana: Protocol for the Condiment Micronutrient Innovation Trial (CoMIT), a community-based randomized controlled trial
Engle-Stone R, Wessells K, Haskell M, Kumordzie S, Arnold C, Davis J, et al.
PLoS One . 2024 May; 19(5):e0302968. PMID: 38709803
Introduction: Micronutrient deficiencies are prevalent in West Africa, particularly among women of reproductive age (WRA) and young children. Bouillon is a promising food fortification vehicle due to its widespread consumption....

Consumption of Discretionary Salt and Salt from Bouillon among Households, Women, and Young Children in Northern Region, Ghana: A Mixed-Methods Study with the Condiment Micronutrient Innovation Trial (CoMIT) Project
Davis J, Kumordzie S, Arnold C, Wessells K, Nyaaba K, Adams K, et al.
Curr Dev Nutr . 2024 Feb; 8(3):102088. PMID: 38419834
Background: Information on salt consumption patterns is needed to inform the need for and design of salt reduction strategies. Objectives: In northern Ghana, this study aimed to estimate household consumption...

Acceptability of Multiple Micronutrient-Fortified Bouillon Cubes among Women and Their Households in 2 Districts in The Northern Region of Ghana
Wessells K, Kumordzie S, Becher E, Davis J, Nyaaba K, Zyba S, et al.
Curr Dev Nutr . 2024 Feb; 8(1):102056. PMID: 38304733
Background: Bouillon is a promising large-scale food fortification vehicle, but there is uncertainty regarding the types and concentrations of micronutrients that are feasible to add without compromising consumer acceptability. Objective:...

Evaluation of a tablet-based assessment tool for measuring cognition among children 4-6 years of age in Ghana
Yuan H, Ocansey M, Adu-Afarwuah S, Sheridan M, Hamoudi A, Okronipa H, et al.
Brain Behav . 2022 Sep; 12(10):e2749. PMID: 36086855
Objectives: To investigate several basic psychometric properties, including construct, convergent and discriminant validity, of the tablet-based Rapid Assessment of Cognitive and Emotional Regulation (RACER) among children aged 4-6 years in...

The impact of maternal supplementation during pregnancy and the first 6 months postpartum on the growth status of the next child born after the intervention period: Follow-up results from Bangladesh and Ghana
Adams K, Adu-Afarwuah S, Mridha M, Oaks B, Matias S, Arnold C, et al.
Matern Child Nutr . 2020 Feb; 16(2):e12927. PMID: 32026568
Pregnancy and breastfeeding make demands on maternal nutrient stores. The extent of depletion and the degree to which nutrient stores are replenished between pregnancies has implications for a mother's nutritional...

The effects of supplementing maternal and infant diets with lipid-based nutrient supplements on physical activity and sedentary behaviour at preschool age in Ghana
Ocansey M, Pulakka A, Adu-Afarwuah S, Young R, Kumordzie S, Okronipa H, et al.
Br J Nutr . 2019 Sep; 122(8):884-894. PMID: 31524123
Evidence on whether nutritional supplementation affects physical activity (PA) during early childhood is limited. We examined the long-term effects of lipid-based nutrient supplements (LNS) on total PA, moderate-to-vigorous PA (MVPA)...

Maternal and child factors associated with child body fatness in a Ghanaian cohort
Kumordzie S, Okronipa H, Arimond M, Adu-Afarwuah S, Ocansey M, Young R, et al.
Public Health Nutr . 2019 Jul; 23(2):309-318. PMID: 31340880
Objective: We aimed to identify factors (child diet, physical activity; maternal BMI) associated with body composition of Ghanaian pre-school children. Design: Longitudinal analysis of the International Lipid-Based Nutrient Supplements (iLiNS)-DYAD-Ghana...

Replacing iron-folic acid with multiple micronutrient supplements among pregnant women in Bangladesh and Burkina Faso: costs, impacts, and cost-effectiveness
Engle-Stone R, Kumordzie S, Meinzen-Dick L, Vosti S
Ann N Y Acad Sci . 2019 May; 1444(1):35-51. PMID: 31134641
Consumption of multiple micronutrient supplements (MMS) during pregnancy offers additional benefits compared with iron-folic acid (IFA) supplementation, but the tablets are more expensive. We estimated the effects, costs, and cost-effectiveness...
