“…It appears intriguing, however, that the rising incidence of childhood obesity and NAFLD has to some extent paralleled the diffusion of MSG addition to different classes of food. Although we cannot currently extend our observation to oral MSG administration in newborn mice, we submit that our observations should account for a rigorous re-evaluation of MSG safety, with particular regard to infant exposure, based on the growing evidence of developmental determinants in children [33].…”

“…Compared to other planned or recently started prospective birth-cohort studies, the size of the Generation R Study cohort is not larger but the measurements are more detailed [12][13][14][15][16]. The cohort is large enough to detect small effects of early environmental and genetic determinants on a variety of outcomes (Table 9 and 10).…”

The Generation R Study is a population-based prospective cohort study from fetal life until young adulthood. The study is designed to identify early environmental and genetic causes of normal and abnormal growth, development and health from fetal life until young adulthood. The study focuses on four primary areas of research: (1) growth and physical development; (2) behavioral and cognitive development; (3) diseases in childhood; and (4) health and healthcare for pregnant women and children. In total, 9778 mothers with a delivery date from April 2002 until January 2006 were enrolled in the study. Of all eligible children at birth, 61% participate in the study. Data collection in the prenatal phase included physical examinations, questionnaires, fetal ultrasound examinations and biological samples. In addition, more detailed assessments are conducted in a subgroup of 1232 pregnant women and their children. The children form a prenatally recruited birth-cohort that will be followed until young adulthood. Eventually, results forthcoming from the Generation R Study have to contribute to the development of strategies for optimizing health and healthcare for pregnant women and children.

“…The National Children's Study is being planned with the goal of following 100 000 children from birth to age 21 years. 1 In that study parents will be asked periodically about the health of their children. Estimates of injury occurrence may be biased if recall is not accurate.…”

Objective: To estimate the ability of parents to recall the injuries of their children. Design: Comparison of parent recall with computerized medical records. Setting: A health maintenance organization in Washington State during 2003. Subjects: Parents of children younger than 6 years. Main outcome measures: The ratio of recalled injuries to injuries in computerized data. Results: Telephone interviews were completed with a parent of 1672 young children who had computerized medical data for at least one injury in the last year. Counting the three most recent treated injuries, the 1672 children had 1896 separate new injuries in the year before interview and parents recalled 1150 of these: recall ratio 0.61 (95% confidence interval (CI) 0.58 to 0.63). The recall ratio decreased from 0.82 (95% CI 0.79 to 0.85) for injuries one day before interview to 0.37 (95% CI 0.32 to 0.40) at 365 days before interview. For 341 major injuries the recall ratio was 0.80 (95% CI 0.76 to 0.84), for 202 minor injuries treated in an emergency department or hospital it was 0.77 (95% CI 0.71 to 0.82), for 597 minor injuries treated in urgent care it was 0.70 (95% CI 0.65 to 0.73), and for 756 minor injuries treated in a clinic it was 0.43 (95% CI 0.39 to 0.47). Conclusions: Recall decreased with time. Recall was best for major injuries, intermediate for minor injuries treated in a hospital, emergency department, or urgent care center, and worst for minor injuries treated in a clinic.
