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 unknown whether this association may be due to an impact of intrauterine malnutrition per se, or whether it may be due to a coincid...
