OBJECTIVES/GOALS: Determine if exposure to violence at different life stages (childhood versus recent exposure) in postpartum women is associated to increased risk of weight retention more than 1 year and no more than 2 years after delivery, thus increasing health risk in short and long term. METHODS/STUDY POPULATION: Participants will be recruited from a cohort of post-partum women who received services from the Puerto Rico Women and Children Program (PR WIC) during pregnancy and postpartum period as per PR WIC established criteria. Families that have completed their participation in a Lifestyle intervention trial will be paired 2:1 with eligible nonparticipants that fulfill trial enrollment criteria. Language, culture validated instruments will be used to document maternal violence exposure in childhood and recent exposure, defined as within the last 12 months. To asses weight retention, pre-pregnancy weight will be compared to actual weight at the moment of evaluation, anthropometric measurements (weight, length, body composition, and fat mass) will be used to determine the health risk category for each participant. RESULTS/ANTICIPATED RESULTS: Expected results will be that there is an association between violence exposure and weight retention among post-partum women, thus influencing their weight status. The use of the questionnaires as screening tool for history of violence and whether recent or childhood exposure should be considered a health risk during pregnancy and post-partum predisposing women to adipose tissue related disorders. DISCUSSION/SIGNIFICANCE: Findings will reinforce the importance of integrated screening and proactive management of social determinants of health within clinical and social services that target this population. Also, contribute to the development of strategies tailored to break violence cycle as a public health measure. |
