Abstract:
【Objective】 To guide the nutritional intervention of children in the clinical practice ，by exploring the effect of over-nutrition in postnatal life on growth of the female SD rats.【Methods】We established the rat model of intra? uterine growth retardation（IUGR）through diet restriction in pregnant rats and selected female newborn rats that met the criteria as the experimental group（group I）. Group I was randomly divided into control group（group IC）and small group（group IS）. Fifty-eight female newborn rats with normal diet in pregnant period（group C）were also divided into control group（group CC）and small group（group CS）. After 21-days-lactation，group IC and group CC were randomly subdivided into 4 rats per cage，and then fed with normal diet，while group IS and group CS were fed with high fat diet. We measured the body weight and the body length of each rat every week. Serum fasting insulin，fasting blood glucose，IGF-1，IGF- BP3 levels，and rat insulin sensitivity index（ISI）were measured at different growth and development stages.【Results】 The body weight and body length of group IS were higher than those of group IC（P<0.05）；the same was true for group CS and group CC. In the different growth and development stages，the FINS，FBG，IGF- 1 and IGF- BP3 of group IS were higher than those of group IC（P < 0.05），the ISI was lower than that of group IC（P < 0.05）. Besides，the FINS，FBG of group CS were higher than those of group CC and the ISI of group CS was lower than that of group CC in the 75 days after birth（P < 0.05）.【Conclusions】We found that those small for gestational age infants can be added nutrition appropriately for rapid catch-up，but it is necessary to evaluate the growth index closely and adjust the nutrition on time. Children with normal intrauterine development also need to prevent over-nutrition.
