A controlled trial of vitamin A, 3 mg retinol equivalent\/day, was conducted among 697 pregnant women with human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) infection in Malawi which allowed comparison of plasma versus breast milk vitamin A as indicators of vitamin A status. Retinol concentrations were measured in plasma at baseline (18\u201328 weeks) and 38 weeks gestation and breast milk at 6 weeks post-partum. Plasam a1-acid glycoprotein (AGP) and C-reactive protein (CRP) were measured at baseline. Plasma retinol (geometric mean, SD) at 38 weeks was 0.72 (0.44, 1.18) and 0.61 (0,38, 0.98) mmol\/L (P &lt; 0.0002) and breast milk retinol was 1.32 (0.71, 2.43) and 0.95 (0.49, 1.82) mmol\/L (P &lt; 0.0001) in vitamin A and placebo groups, respectively. Women with elevated acute phase protein (AGP &gt; 1 gm\/L and\/or CRP &gt; 5 mg\/L) at baseline who received vitamin A had significantly higher plasma and breast milk vitamin A at follow-up compared with placebo, Elevated acute phase proteins did not distinguish women with low body stores of vitamin A. Breast rnilk retinol appears to be a better indicator of vitamin A status than plasma retinol in women with infections. <\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1024\/0300-9831.70.6.271","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2006,1,31]],"date-time":"2006-01-31T12:28:19Z","timestamp":1138710499000},"page":"271-277","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":27,"title":["Plasma and Breast Milk Vitamin A as Indicators of Vitamin A Status in Pregnant Women"],"prefix":"10.31083","volume":"70","author":[{"given":"Richard","family":"Semba","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"John Hopkins University Schools of Medicine, Hygiene, Public Health, Baltimore, MD;
