SUMMARY:Mother’s Milk & Baby’s Bacteria: Discoveries from the CHILD Cohort Study
DESCRIPTION:Dr. Meghan Azad\n\n\nAssociate Professor of Pediatrics and Child Health\, Community Health Sciences\, and Immunology\, University of Manitoba\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nMother’s Milk & Baby’s Bacteria: Discoveries from the CHILD Cohort Study\n\n\n\n\nThe CHILD Cohort Study (www.childstudy.ca) is following 3500 Canadian families from pregnancy onwards to understand the developmental origins of chronic diseases. We have shown that breastfeeding is associated with reduced risks of childhood asthma and obesity\, and these beneficial effects appear to be partly mediated by the infant gut microbiome. Current research in the Azad Lab (www.azadlab.ca) at the Manitoba Interdisciplinary Lactation Centre (www.milcresearch.com) is focused on understanding how breastfeeding practices and breast milk components (including microbes\, oligosaccharides\, fatty acids\, hormones and cytokines) shape the developing infant microbiome and contribute to health and disease trajectories in the CHILD cohort. \n

SUMMARY:Environmental contaminants in human milk
DESCRIPTION:Dr. Merete Eggesbø\n\n\nEnvironmental Epidemiologist at the Norwegian Institute of Public Health\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nEnvironmental contaminants in human milk\n\n\n\n\nSince the mid 19th century a booming chemical industry has exposed the human population to an ever increasing load of synthetic chemicals. Of particular concern are the persistent environmental toxicants that accumulate in our bodies\, and are transferred to our children during fetal life and breastfeeding. Although the levels of many toxicants have declined during the last 40 years due to the Stockholm convention\, we still observe adverse effects of these old “legacy” chemicals\, related to reproduction\, obesity\, neurodevelopment and to the immune system. In parallel\, new chemicals are steadily entering the scene. One such group of particular worrisome new chemicals are the perfluorinated chemicals which can be found in water repellent material. A recent Faroese study reported that children with the highest exposure to these chemicals had increased risk of vaccine responses below a clinically protective level. Vaccinations programs prevents an estimated 2.5 million deaths worldwide annually\, but a weakened immune system has implication beyond vaccine responses\, increasing our susceptibility to infections and carcinogens. \nClick here for the webinar flyer. \n6:00 PM CEST / 12:00 PM EDT on April 6\, 2021

SUMMARY:Africa Webinar: Strategies to optimize breastfeeding in Kenya
DESCRIPTION:Dr. Elizabeth Kimani-Murage\n\n\n\nAfrican Public Health Research Center\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nAfrica Webinar: Strategies to optimize breastfeeding in Kenya\n\n\n\n\nOptimal breastfeeding has many benefits\, including promoting optimal growth\, development and health of the child. Despite these benefits\, breastfeeding has not been fully optimized in Kenya. Although the proportion of children who were exclusively breastfed in Kenya improved from 32% in 2008 to 61% in the latest national survey in Kenya (2014)\, we are still below the national target of 75% by 2022. Promising interventions to optimize breastfeeding in Kenya may include global initiatives like the Baby Friendly Hospital Initiative (BFHI)\, the Baby Friendly Community Initiative (BFCI)\, Human Milk Banking (HMB) and Baby-friendly Workplace Initiative (BFWI). The presentation will focus on the application of these initiatives to optimize breastfeeding in Kenya. \n

SUMMARY:Supporting mothers to breastfeed exclusively in Bangladesh
DESCRIPTION:Dr. Rukhsana Haider\n\n\nFounder and Chairperson of the Training & Assistance for Health & Nutrition Foundation (TAHN) in Bangladesh\, and Co-Chair\, Steering Committee of the World Alliance for Breastfeeding Action (WABA)\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nSupporting mothers to breastfeed exclusively in Bangladesh\n\n\n\n\nSpecific programs to inform and support employed women for breastfeeding are lacking in Bangladesh. Ready-made garment factory workers in particular\, are reported to have poor infant feeding practices and undernourished children. In order to improve the infant feeding practices of factory workers and their unemployed neighbours\, a peer counselling project was implemented from 2015-17 in Chattogram. Peer counsellors visited mothers regularly at home from pregnancy until children were 18 months old. A cross-sectional survey undertaken when the project ended\, showed that breastfeeding practices of the counselled factory workers were significantly better than those of the non-counselled factory workers. Unemployed counselled mothers also had optimal breastfeeding practices. These results will be further shared during the webinar. Despite the challenges being faced during the Covid-19 pandemic\, peer counsellors continue to provide home-based services to both unemployed and employed women in TAHN Foundations’ programme areas. \nClick here for the webinar flyer. \n12:00 PM SGT/AWST on February 23\, 2021 / 11:00 PM EST on February 22\, 2021

SUMMARY:Lactancia materna y COVID-19 en América Latina: Lecciones aprendidas y como avanzar (Hosted in Spanish)
DESCRIPTION:Dr. Rafael Pérez-Escamilla\n\n\nProfessor of Public Health\, Director of the Office of Public Health Practice\, and Director of the Global Health Concentration at the Yale School of Public Health\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nLactancia materna y COVID-19 en América Latina: Lecciones aprendidas y como avanzar (Hosted in Spanish)\n\n\n\n\nBasado en la evidencia acumulada hasta ahora\, la Organización Mundial de la Salud sigue indicando que mujeres con COVID-19 pueden amamantar de forma segura a sus bebés y que es muy deseable que lo hagan. Sin embargo\, un estudio de monitoreo en México que es nacionalmente representativo muestra que la mayoría de las personas en hogares con niños pequeños piensan que las mujeres con COVID-19 no deben amamantar ya que pueden transmitir el virus SARS-CoV-2 a sus hijos. Esta presentación va a discutir las implicaciones de esto hallazgos para mejorar la diseminación basada en evidencia\, utilizando principios de teoría y análisis de redes sociales\, sobre la lactancia materna en tiempos de COVID-19 en el contexto de América Latina. También va a presentar hallazgos sobre como programas de consejería de lactancia materna fueron adaptados de forma remota durante la pandemia utilizando métodos de la ciencia de implementación. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n

SUMMARY:Antigen shedding in human milk: key for long term immune health?
DESCRIPTION:Professor Valerie Verhasselt\n\n\nChair in Human Lactology\, School of Molecular Sciences at the University of Western Australia (UWA)\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nAntigen shedding in human milk: key for long term immune health?\n\n\n\n\nIn addition of being a source of nutrients for the developing newborn\, human milk contains thousands of bioactive compounds\, which influence infant health in the short-term as exemplified by its major benefits on infectious disease prevention. Many of the human milk compounds also have the required characteristics to instruct immune development and guide long-term health. Prebiotics\, probiotics\, varied antimicrobial molecules\, all have the potential to shape the composition and function of the establishing gut microbiota\, which is known to be a major determinant of proper immune function. Another and less explored way human milk can instruct long-term immunity\, is through antigen shedding. Here\, we will review the evidence that antigens from maternal environment and more specifically from allergen sources and pathogens\, are found in human milk. We will gather the data that provide clues on how antigens in human milk may be especially suitable to elicit an immune response in early life and educate the infant immunity towards tolerance or defense as needed. We propose this understanding is fundamental to guide maternal interventions leading to child-tailored vaccination\, harmonious microbiota commensalism and lifelong allergen tolerance. \nClick here for the webinar flyer.\n \n11:00 AWST on January 27\, 2021

SUMMARY:Evidence of a strong and specific antibody response against SARS-CoV-2 in human milk
DESCRIPTION:Dr. Rebecca Powell\n\n\nIcahn School of Medicine at Mount Sinai\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nEvidence of a strong and specific antibody response against SARS-CoV-2 in human milk\n\n\n\n\nThe SARS-CoV-2 immune response in human milk has not yet been examined\, though protecting infants and young children from COVID-19 is critical for limiting community transmission\, and preventing serious illness and death. Just as NYC was shutting down in early April 2020 during its COVID-19 peak\, the human milk immunology lab headed by Dr. Rebecca Powell at the Icahn School of Medicine at Mount Sinai began to rapidly enroll local participants into a novel study of the SARS-CoV-2 immune response in human milk. This presentation will describe this study and its early results\, which so far indicate a robust antibody response in milk\, signifying that continued research is highly warranted to understand if and how breastfed infants are protected by this response\, and determine the potential for exploiting extracted milk antibody for therapeutic use. \nClick here for the webinar flyer. \n18:00 CET on January 5\, 2021

SUMMARY:Mother's own milk vs. donor milk for preterm infants
DESCRIPTION:Presented by Dr. Hans van Goudoever on Tuesday\, Nov 17\, 2020.\nWhen mother’s own milk is not available\, donor human milk is a good alternative. However\, processing the milk\, including the multiple freeze and thaw processes and pasteurization does affect the quality of milk. Many differences in processing exists between milk banks\, across countries\, also in processes that clearly affect the quality. This presentation will give an update on the latest evidence on the efficacy of donor milk\, compared to own mother’s milk\, including the newest data on SARS-CoV-2 and human donor milk.

SUMMARY:Human milk lipids - what do we know?
DESCRIPTION:Presented by Dr. Johann Demmelmair on Tuesday\, Nov 3\, 2020.\nFat occurs in human milk as milk fat globules and provides about 50% of human milk energy. Although more than 200 fatty acids have been identified in human milk\, there are only a limited number of fatty acids with quantitative relevance\, but these form a huge number of different lipids. Non polar triglycerides\, which contribute more than 98% -wt/wt to the fat\, form the core of the milk fat globules. Specific for milk fat is a relatively high content of short and medium chain fatty acids with up to 14 carbon atoms and a strong enrichment of palmitic acid at the sn-2 position. Both factors enhance fat digestibility. Of importance is the content of the essential fatty acids and their long chain polyunsaturated derivatives. They are mainly provided by triglycerides\, although their relative percentage may be higher in certain more polar milk lipid fractions. The polar lipids in milk include glycerophospholipids\, sphingolipids\, and cholesterol. Quantitatively they are all minor components\, but their importance for the development of the infant digestive tract\, immune system and cognition has started to be recognized in recent years.

SUMMARY:Functions of the milk fat globule membrane in human milk
DESCRIPTION:Presented by Prof Magnus Domellöf\, MD\, PhD on Tues\, Sept 15\, 2020.\nBreastfeeding is associated with many health benefits in the infant\, including improved cognitive development and a reduced risk of infections. Human milk is a complex emulsion of fat globules surrounded by a triple phospholipid membrane\, with membrane-bound complex lipids and proteins. Components of this highly complex membrane\, the ”milk fat globule membrane” (MFGM) include choline\, sphingomyelin\, gangliosides\, cholesterol\, sialic acid\, inositol and cerebrosides\, which are all involved in brain development. Further\, the MFGM contains mucins\, butyrophilin\, lactadherin\, CD14\, TLR1\, TLR3 and xanthine oxidase\, which are all important for immune function. Studies in animals support these associations and recent trials in infants suggest that MFGM may indeed improve neurodevelopment and reduce the risk of infections also in humans. These studies need to be reproduced and further studies are needed to establish the exact mechanisms behind these effects\, as well as possible clinical applications.

SUMMARY:Human Milk Oligosaccharides: Current Research Activities and Challenges
DESCRIPTION:Presented by Prof. Dr. Clemens Kunz on Tues\, August 4\, 2020.\nIn recent years\, the interest in human milk oligosaccharides (HMOs) is exploding primarily due to the breakthrough in manufacturing HMOs on a large scale which can be used for commercial purposes. Hence\, we are at the beginning of a new era in infant nutrition\, supplementing infant formula with oligosaccharides occurring naturally in human milk. Although currently only a few HMO are available\, the number is steadily increasing. To differentiate between HMOs naturally occurring in human milk and identical but commercially produced components a differing denomination for the latter should be given. The interest of the biotech and dairy industry as well as infant formula companies is enormous which raises many questions with regard to the scientific evidence supporting HMO supplementation\, the selection and doses of specific components and the outcomes that should be looked at. As commercially produced HMOs may not be available to or not be used by all companies\, there are great efforts to find new strategies to bring the composition of infant formula closer to that of human milk in terms of its oligosaccharide composition. Recently\, HMOs have often been described as “galactosylated oligosaccharides“\, a definition which is not appropriate as it disregards more important characteristics of HMOs not common to other “galactosylated oligosaccharides“ named as GOS or GOS/FOS. However\, it alleviates strategies to add those non-human milk oligosaccharides to infant formula. It seems that the topic “HMO“ is often not only confusing the scientific community but\, and even more importantly\, commercial strategies may mislead parents looking for an alternative for their child if not breastfed.

SUMMARY:The Human Milk Microbiome
DESCRIPTION:Presented by Dr. Maria Carmen Collado on Tues\, July 7\, 2020.\nCurrent evidence highlights the key role of early microbial colonization in promoting later health. Perturbations in this colonization process caused by factors such as C-section delivery\, antibiotics\, prematurity\, etc.\, have been associated to a higher risk of non-communicable diseases (NCDs) later in life as well as obesity and allergic disease. Human microbial colonization starts at birth when the neonate is exposed to maternal microbiota and continues during lactation. Beyond nutritional aspects\, human milk contains bioactive compounds as microorganisms\, oligosaccharides and other substances which are involved in host-microbe interactions. Different studies shown that human milk composition is shaped by genetic factors\, mode of delivery\, maternal nutrition\, and also\, would differ within feeds\, day time\, lactation stage and also\, between mothers and populations. This lecture is aimed to provide a global overview on milk microbiota composition and activity\, factors shaping its composition and their potential biological relevance.

SUMMARY:Research of Human Milk for Feeding Preterm Infants in Serbia
DESCRIPTION:Nikoleta Lugonja\, PhD\n\n\nAssistant Research Professor at the Institute of Chemistry\, Technology & Metallury\, National Institute at the University of Belgrade Serbia\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nResearch of Human Milk for Feeding Preterm Infants in Serbia\n\n\n\n\nAbout 4\,000 children are born preterm in Serbia every year. Breast milk is both food and medicine for premature babies. The First Serbian Human Milk Bank was established in 2009 at the Institute of Neonatology in Belgrade\, sparkling rapid development research on human milk in this region. The collaborative research between the University of Belgrade and the Serbian Human Milk Bank is focused on the quality of milk in its native form and human milk monitoring during storage and pasteurization. Adequate nutrition is essential for preterm infants emphasizing need for comprehensive analysis of human milk properties in Serbia with focus on nutritional properties\, antioxidant potential and total chemical\, biochemical\, prebiotic and probiotic quality of mothers’ milk. Our research on in-vitro model has shown that the human milk exerted direct pharmacological relaxation effects on isolated non-vascular smooth muscle\, in addition to detailed analysis of the nutritional and biological values of human milk. Lactation of preterm infants’ mothers has been examined as an additional stimulant for enhanced recovery of mothers and infants. New methods for monitoring the quality of human milk in Serbia have been developed\, thus laying a solid foundation for further development and progress of human milk research in Serbia. \nClick here for the webinar flyer. \n12:00 PM EDT / 6:00 PM CEST / 12:00 AM AWST on July 6

SUMMARY:Complementary feeding and commercial complementary food
DESCRIPTION:Presented by Melissa Theurich\, BSc \, MPH\, IBCLC on Tues\, June 2\, 2020.\nCommercial complementary foods are some of the first foods fed to infants in Europe. They make up a substantial proportion of diets of European infants and young children over the first two years of life. This webinar will review European and international recommendations for complementary feeding. It will include results from the European Childhood Obesity Project (CHOP) on the use of the commercial baby foods in 5 European countries as well as results of a national survey of commercial cereals in Germany. Cereals from Germany were found to be poor sources of micronutrients\, to be high in sugar\, to contain added sugars and labels rarely recommended human milk for reconstitution. Improvements of European commercial baby foods are needed.

SUMMARY:COVID-19 and Breastfeeding
DESCRIPTION:Presented by Diane Lynn Spatz\, PhD\, RN-BC\, FAAN on Tues\, May 5\, 2020.\nThis presentation will review the various international recommendations and limited research studies related to human milk and breastfeeding and COVID-19 and discuss the conflicting recommendations. Despite conflicting recommendations regarding direct breastfeeding and skin to skin contact\, all recommendations support the use of human milk. I will present what interventions we can do to ensure that families are making informed feeding decisions and that we give evidence-based guidance to ensure that mothers effectively establish milk supply.
