Birth weight is associated with brain tissue volumes seven decades later, but not with age-associated changes to brain structure

2020-08-28

Abstract excerpt

Birth weight, an indicator of fetal growth, is associated with cognitive outcomes in early life and risk of metabolic and cardiovascular disease across the life course. Cognitive ability in early life is predictive of cognitive ability in later life. Brain health in older age, defined by MRI features, is associated with cognitive performance. However, little is known about how variation in normal birth weight impa...
