To catch up or not to catch up: is this the question? Lessons from animal models

1 Feb 2007

Abstract excerpt

PURPOSE OF REVIEW: Low birth weight and accelerated postnatal catch-up growth during early life are independent risk factors for adult disease, including diabetes, obesity, and cardiovascular disease. As they are intimately linked, it is difficult to determine the independent contributions of birth weight and catch-up growth per se. This review focuses on evidence derived from animal models of disease, in which...
