Fetal origins of insulin resistance and the metabolic syndrome: a key role for adipose tissue?

Diabetes & metabolism - 1 Feb 2010

Meas T

Abstract excerpt

For several years now, the epidemiological data have shown an inverse relationship between birth-weight and the development in later life of cardiovascular disease and metabolic disorders. The term "small for gestational age" (SGA) describes a neonate whose birth-weight is two standard deviations (SD) below the reference mean, corrected for gestational age and gender. SGA is associated with increased risks of...
