Low birth weight is associated with NIDDM in discordant monozygotic and dizygotic twin pairs.

Diabetologia - 1 Apr 1997

Abstract excerpt

Previous studies have demonstrated an association between low weight at birth and risk of later development of non-insulin-dependent diabetes mellitus (NIDDM). It is not known whether this association is due to an impact of intrauterine malnutrition per se, or whether it is due to a coincidence between the putative "NIDDM susceptibility genotype" and a genetically determined low weight at birth. It is also...
