Obesity and diabetes genes are associated with being born small for gestational age: Results from the Auckland Birthweight Collaborative study

16 Aug 2010

Abstract excerpt

BACKGROUND: Individuals born small for gestational age (SGA) are at increased risk of rapid postnatal weight gain, later obesity and diseases in adulthood such as type 2 diabetes, hypertension and cardiovascular diseases. Environmental risk factors for SGA are well established and include smoking, low pregnancy weight, maternal short stature, maternal diet, ethnic origin of mother and hypertension. However, in a...
