Early breast-feeding cessation and infant mortality in low-income countries - Workshop summary Bork Simondon Kirsten auteur aut IRD text bookSection eng text/pdf born digital access The importance of breast-feeding for infant and child health and survival in less developed countries has been the subject of a number of studies over the last 25 years.1_9 However, the epidemic of AIDS in low-income countries, together with the discovery of an important risk of mother-to-child transmission of HIV-1 through breast-milk,10 has prompted renewed interest in this subject. Indeed, in order to weigh the mortality risks associated with different infant feeding practices against the risk of mother-to-child transmission of the virus, it is essential to have precise estimates of relative risk of death of non-breastfed infants within narrow age intervals. specialized 054 Breast-feeding : early influences on later health Goldberg G. auteur aut IRD Prentice A. auteur aut IRD Prentice A. auteur aut IRD Filteau S. auteur aut IRD Simondon Kirsten auteur aut IRD 639 319-329 2009 Advances in Experimental Medicine and Biology 639 https://www.documentation.ird.fr/hor/fdi:010048287 10.1007/978-1-4020-8749-3_23 [F B010048287] https://www.documentation.ird.fr/hor/fdi:010048287 https://www.documentation.ird.fr/intranet/publi/2009/compl2/010048287.pdf Accès réservé (Intranet de l'IRD) IRD - Base Horizon / Pleins textes 2009-11-25 2017-08-23 fdi:010048287 fre
