Hypotheses on the fetal origins of adult diseases: contributions of epidemiological studies.

European journal of epidemiology - 1 Jan 2006

Jaddoe Vincent W V, Witteman Jacqueline C M

Abstract excerpt

Epidemiological studies have demonstrated associations between low birth weight and cardiovascular disease, type 2 diabetes and their risk factors in adult life. These findings have led to sharp debates in the literature concerning potential methodological study flaws and the effect size and caus...
