Hamad R, et al. - In this quasi-experimental study involving 2,897,537 infants born to 2,441,658 mothers, researchers ascertained if the revised Women, Infants, and Children (WIC) food packages could enhance perinatal and birth outcomes among recipients. According to results, WIC recipients were more probable than non-recipients to be Hispanic, less educated, greater parity, and younger. The improved WIC food package was linked to decreases in maternal preeclampsia and more than advised gestational weight gain, boosted likelihood as recommended and less than prescribed gestational weight gain, and more prolonged gestational age. An increased probability of birth weight among infants that was appropriate for gestational age was noted. However, the birth weight itself was decreased, this was accompanied by declines in small for gestational age, large for gestational age, and low-birth-weight infants which implied that the improved food package advanced distributions of birth weight. The revised WIC food package, aimed at improving the nutrition of women during pregnancy, has been correlated with positive effects on maternal and child health. This indicates that at a critical juncture in the course of life, WIC policy can be a significant lever to decrease health disparities between high-risk women and children.
