An observational study in Food Insecurity, HIV and Maternal and Child Health, sponsored by Northwestern University. Completed. Open to female participants aged 18 Years to 40 Years, including healthy volunteers. Per ClinicalTrials.gov, last updated 2020-11-13.
Sponsored by Northwestern University · Observational
PostNAPs was a continuation of the PreNAPs study. 246 women were enrolled in the postnatal period with the primary scientific objective of determining whether food insecurity was an independent risk factor for poor maternal nutritional or psychosocial outcomes or for sub-optimal infant feeding practices.
Northwestern University is the lead sponsor of 1,396 studies on the registry; 199 are open to participants now.
Of its 102 completed or terminated interventional studies of FDA-regulated products, 73 (72%) have results posted.

Postpartum women >18 years of age of mixed HIV status who had attended antenatal care at Gulu Regional Referral Hospital in Gulu, Uganda and had participated in the PreNAPS longitudinal observational cohort study and their infants.
Exclusion Criteria:
Impacts of food insecurity (IFIAS) on maternal and infant health indicators (i.e. changes in body composition, hemoglobin, morbidity, etc.) among lactating women of mixed-HIV status and their infants in Gulu, Uganda
Explore the underlying mechanisms and impacts of food insecurity (using the Individual Food Insecurity Access Scale (IFIAS)) on body composition changes (weight in kg, bioelectrical impedance analysis (among women), skin folds, MUAC), morbidity (malaria, diagnoses or symptoms of fever, typhoid, diarrhea, etc.), micronutrient status (hemoglobin), and other health indicators among women of mixed-HIV status and their infants in Gulu, Uganda.
Time frame: Approximately 1 year
Impacts of food insecurity (IFIAS) and maternal depression (CES-D) on maternal folate levels among women of mixed-HIV status in Gulu, Uganda.
Describe the relationship between food insecurity (IFIAS) and maternal depression (CES-D) on maternal folate levels and assess if these relationships are modified by maternal HIV status.
Time frame: Approximately 1 year
Impacts of food insecurity (IFIAS) and maternal depression (CES-D) on maternal B12 levels among women of mixed-HIV status in Gulu, Uganda.
Describe the relationship between food insecurity (IFIAS) and maternal depression (CES-D) on maternal B12 levels and assess if this relationship is modified by HIV status.
Time frame: Approximately 1 year
Impacts of food insecurity (IFIAS) and maternal depression (CESD) on infant feeding among women of mixed-HIV status in Gulu, Uganda
Explore the impacts of food insecurity (IFIAS) and maternal depression (CESD) on infant feeding (breastfeeding, introduction of complimentary foods, infant dietary diversity).
Time frame: Approximately 1 year
Changes in food insecurity (IFIAS) within the first year of delivery among women of mixed-HIV status in Gulu, Uganda
Measure changes in the prevalence and severity of food insecurity from delivery to approximately 1 year postpartum among women of mixed-HIV status in Gulu, Uganda.
Time frame: Approximately 1 year
