Characteristics of western dietary pattern and its association with media exposure in two generations of Hong Kong Chinese women. / CUHK electronic theses & dissertations collectionJanuary 2010 (has links)
2)Qualitative study: Three areas were discussed: i) Generational differences in dietary practices were apparent and it was attributable to the discrepancies in the food environment during childhood, attitudes towards family meals, and practices of regular meal schedules between generations; ii) Mothers were influential but did not recognize their influences on their adult daughters' diet. Ignorance of the importance of diet-health relationship in young adulthood was observed; iii) Effects of media food promotions were apparent in the presence of Westernized food environment and reduced family size. Health and diet information in the media induced both positive and negative effects on the dietary behaviours of Chinese women. / Background: Studies on the characteristics associated with the Western dietary pattern (DP) in Asia are limited. Understanding the family DP resemblance in Asia is of public health importance because of the possible beneficial effects of intergenerational transfer of traditional plant-based Asian diet. Studies about media influence on dietary behaviours in Asia are few and none studied the effects on the overall DP. / Conclusion: There is an intergenerational association for practicing Western DP within family. Mothers were influential in adult daughters' dietary intakes, through modelling and family meals. A dose-response relationship exists between the practice of Western DP and media exposure in Chinese women. Public health strategies should consider promotion of family meals and empowerment of women on quick and healthy cooking skills as long-term approaches for family health promotion and obesity prevention. Policy evaluation of food or food-related advertising standards is necessary. / Keywords: mother, daughter, dietary pattern, media exposure, family meal, Western, TV viewing / Methods: This thesis composes two studies as follows: 1)a cross-sectional study on Western DP and media exposure; 2)a qualitative study on media influences on dietary practices. / Objective: This study aims to examine the dietary and individual characteristics associated with Western DP, investigate the association between the practice of Western DP and media exposure, and qualitatively assess how media and other factors influence the dietary practices in two generations of Chinese women. / Results: 1)Cross-sectional study: Western DP was characterised by higher intakes of meat (red, processed, poultry), fast foods, seafood, energy-dense foods (e.g. high-fat dairy, cakes and snacks), eggs, energy, fat, and dietary cholesterol. Daughters had a higher Western DP score than their mother. Western DP score was positively associated with the time spent on total media exposure and years living in Hong Kong for mothers, and with the time spent on TV viewing, mother's Western DP score, and smoking status for daughters. Western DP score was positively associated with the prevalence odds of being overweight and negatively associated with the frequency of family meals for both mothers and daughters. / The cross-sectional study recruited 207 (103 mothers, 104 daughters) community-based women from a longitudinal study. Dietary intake was quantified by an interviewer-administered diet history questionnaire. A self-reported questionnaire assessed the media (newspapers, magazines, radio, television, and leisure-time internet use) and other exposures (demographics, leisure-time physical activities, and lifestyles). Anthropometric data are measured. Two major DPs (Western and prudent) were identified using principal component analysis. Generation-specific factors associated with DPs were identified by multiple linear regression analyses adjusted for age and energy intake. / The qualitative study enrolled 22 mothers and 13 daughters from the same study population for semi-structured in-depth interviews. Themes were identified corresponding to the environmental levels described by the Ecological Model, with quotations supported. The final themes were evaluated by participant validation. / Lee, Suk Yin Roselle. / Adviser: Suzanne C Ho. / Source: Dissertation Abstracts International, Volume: 73-02, Section: B, page: . / Thesis (Ph.D.)--Chinese University of Hong Kong, 2010. / Includes bibliographical references (leaves 222-250). / Electronic reproduction.

閩南菜姑的研究. / Vegetarian women in southern Fujian / CUHK electronic theses & dissertations collection / Min nan cai gu de yan jiu.January 2007 (has links)
After China adopted the reform and open door policy in early 1980s, thanks to their knowledge on Buddhism, their familiarity of religious rituals, and their experience in temple management, vegetarian women have doubled their efforts not only to transmit their traditions their next generation but also to establish the authentic Buddhist image of temples in Southern Fujian. (Abstract shortened by UMI.) / The research is carried out according to the discussions on (1) the gender and power relations within the religious institutions that were re-presented and re-produced by renaming vegetarian women as Brahma-carya upasika, and (2) the influences of being identified as Brahma-carya upasika on the life and religious practice of these vegetarian women. From a bifocal perspective, the study demonstrates that women are victim as well as agent within a religious organization in a patriarchal society. It has been discovered that vegetarian women in Southern Fujian have been suppressed yet they have also made use of the opportunities of changing their identity since the late Qing Dynasty. Study results also show that [vegetarian] women in Southern Fujian have adopted obedient attitudes instead of revolutionary means to establish their space and women culture. This could be considered as their expedient means and power yet indicates their powerlessness under the patriarchal society and religion. In other words, they have employed the least powerful approach to conducting their religious life and maximizing their power for self-development. / This thesis, based on historical, textual and field studies, explores a special religious group of vegetarian women (Caigu in Chinese) in Southern Fujian. The research is focused on examining their identify transformation as a religious group to a Buddhist organization along the process of societal change from the end of the Qing up to present time. The key issues discussed in this thesis are as following: (1) the process of institutionalization of the vegetarian women into mainstream Buddhist, (2) the elements that have exercised influences on the religious identity of vegetarian women, (3) temple managements, daily activities and religious rituals, and (4) the relationship between vegetarian women and the mainstream Buddhism in contemporary China. / 劉一蓉. / 呈交日期: 2005年8月. / 論文(哲學博士)--香港中文大學, 2005. / 參考文獻(p. i-xvi (4th group)). / Cheng jiao ri qi: 2005 nian 8 yue. / Adviser: Wai Lun Tam. / Source: Dissertation Abstracts International, Volume: 67-07, Section: A, page: 2616. / Electronic reproduction.

Maternal serum level of 25(OH)D in Hong Kong Chinese pregnant women and its relationship with pregnancy outcome.January 2013 (has links)
該前瞻性研究對香港中國裔孕婦的25羥基維生素D(25(OH)D)的水平及其影響因素進行調查,并對25(OH)D與甲狀旁腺激素(PTH)、孕期肌肉酸痛、不良妊娠結局、孕期及産後骨質流失,以及嬰兒的骨骼發育等關係進行探索,力求建立適用于香港的中國孕婦的25(OH)D正常值。 / 共有237名單胎妊娠婦女以及62名多胎妊娠的婦女在2010年8月至2011年11月間參加本研究中的隊列研究,分別在參加研究時(<20 孕周)、24-28孕周、31-36孕周以及産後6-11周進行抽血測量血清25(OH)D以及PTH水平,同時填寫一份包括對每月攝取含維生素D的食物以及營養補充劑頻度、接受日照情況及喜好、以及肌肉不適等情況的問卷,并在24-28孕周進行75克口服葡萄糖耐量試驗。參與隊列研究的單胎孕婦在20周前、31-36孕周以及産後隨訪時接受用定量超聲測量非優勢手的橈骨遠端以及中指近掌指骨的骨質超聲速率(SoS)。在産後複查時,對其嬰兒左側腓骨中部的骨質SoS進行測量。記錄婦女各次檢查時的體重、抽血月份紫外線輻射強度的歷史記錄、以及妊娠結局。另外募集一批孕婦參加病例對照研究,比較患早產(PTB)、子癇前期(PET)、妊娠糖尿病 (GDM)以及胎兒生長受限(FGR)併發癥的婦女與對照組 (體重指數以及抽血時紫外線強度配對)的血清25(OH)D水平。 / 孕婦在孕期的平均25(OH)D水平在44.7 ± 12.6 至48.9 ± 17.1 nmol/l範圍,25(OH)D水平與體重指數、維生素D營養補充劑、抽血時紫外線強度以及個人對陽光的喜好情況有關,而與胎兒數量、孕次、孕周以及終止妊娠無關。 / 單胎妊娠的孕婦三個孕期的血清25(OH)D與PTH水平均負相關,但在多胎妊娠中,二者無明顯相關性。PTH在孕期以及産後的變化相對不受25(OH)D影響。孕婦25(OH)D的水平與孕婦肌肉酸痛癥狀、産後恢復、孕期及產褥期骨質流失以及嬰兒骨質無關。患早期PTB(< 34孕周)、PET或FGR的孕婦的血清25(OH)D比對照組低,但GDM患者的25(OH)D水平與對照組無差別。血清25(OH)D低於34.3 nmol/l者的早期早產以及子癇前期的風險增高,低於50 nmol/l者發生胎兒生長受限的風險增高。服用維生素D補充劑情況可能影響25(OH)D與FGR的關係。 / 總而言之,血清25(OH)D水平不足以全面完全反映孕期維生素D的情況,對預測不良妊娠結局的作用有限。 / This prospective study explored the maternal serum level of 25(OH)D in Chinese pregnant women in Hong Kong and the factors affecting 25(OH)D level. It also explored the correlation between maternal 25(OH)D with PTH level, maternal musculoskeletal complaints, adverse pregnancy outcome, maternal bone turnover during pregnancy and postpartum, and the bone development of the offspring, aiming to explore and establish a normal range of 25(OH)D level in pregnancy for the Hong Kong Chinese women. / A total of 237 women with singleton pregnancy and 62 women with multiple pregnancies were recruited for the cohort study from August, 2010 to November, 2011. Maternal blood samplings for 25(OH)D and PTH measurements were performed at recruitment, 24-28 weeks, 31-36 weeks of gestation, and 6-11 weeks postpartum respectively. A questionnaire which included the monthly dietary and supplement intake of vitamin D, questions about sunlight exposure, and musculoskeletal complaints was administered on each visit. A 75g oral glucose tolerance test (OGTT) was performed on cohort cases at 24-28 weeks of gestation. Measurements of the speed of sound (SoS) at the distal one third of the maternal radius and the proximal phalanx of the third finger of the non-dominant side were performed with quantitative ultrasonography (QUS) measurement during the visits at the first and third trimesters, and postnatal period. The SoS at the left mid-shaft tibia of the offspring was determined during the postnatal visit. Maternal characteristics, ultraviolet radiation (UVR) intensity at blood sampling, and pregnancy outcome, were also recorded. Cases with pregnancy complications were recruited for case-control studies, and maternal 25(OH)D level was examined with respect to preterm birth (PTB), preeclampsia (PET), gestational diabetes (GDM), and fetal growth restriction (FGR, birthweight below the 10th percentile of the customized estimated birthweight). The controls were matched for booking body mass index (BMI) and UVR intensity at blood sampling. / The mean 25(OH)D level in ranged from 44.7 ± 12.6 to 48.9 ± 17.1 nmol/l in the three trimesters, and was related to BMI, vitamin D supplementation, UVR intensity at blood sampling, and the acceptance of sunlight exposure, but not the number of fetus, parity, gestational age, or the completion of pregnancy. / Inverse correlation between PTH and 25(OH)D were observed in singleton, but not in multiple, pregnancy. The change in maternal PTH level is found to be relatively independent from that of 25(OH)D. There was no correlation between maternal 25(OH)D level with musculoskeletal complaints, postnatal recovery, bone turnover during and after pregnancy, or the bone density of the offspring. Maternal 25(OH)D level was lower in women with early PTB ( < 34 weeks), PET, and FGR, but not for GDM. A maternal 25(OH)D level of lower than 34.3nmol/l and 50 nmol/l was associated with increased risk of early PTB, PET, and FGR respectively. But the correlation between maternal 25(OH)D level with FGR might be affected by supplementation. / In conclusion, serum level of 25(OH)D is insufficient in reflecting maternal vitamin D status and metabolism in pregnancy, and is of limited use in predicting adverse pregnancy outcome. / Detailed summary in vernacular field only. / Detailed summary in vernacular field only. / Detailed summary in
