Supplementation trials are needed to define the public health importance of maternal zinc deficiency worldwide.

Zinc concentrations in human milk decline sharply during the early months post partum, regardless of maternal zinc intake.

Milk zinc concentrations do not increase in response to increased maternal zinc intake if maternal zinc status is adequate.

The results of experimental studies conducted in animal models have motivated concern about the potential health effects of mild-to-moderate maternal zinc deficiency.

Objective: To investigate the effect of maternal zinc deficiency on learning and memory in offspring and the changes in DNA methylation patterns.

However, maternal zinc levels have shown no significant correlation with neonatal serum zinc levels in term AGA (0.029).

Objective: Assessment of serum Zinc in LBW (Low Birth Weight) and appropriate for gestational age (AGA) neonates in relation to their maternal zinc level.

Low maternal zinc levels were significant correlated with lower serum zinc in LBW neonates (Pearson correlation value - 0.938).

Background: Maternal zinc supplementation has been suggested as a potential intervention to reduce the incidence of low birth weight in developing countries.
