Elevated blood pressure in high-fat diet-exposed low birthweight rat offspring is most likely caused by elevated glucocorticoid levels

Being delivered as a low birthweight (LBW) infant is a risk factor for elevated blood pressure and future problems with cardiovascular and cerebellar diseases. Premature babies have been reported to possess a lower number of nephrons, but the mechanisms by which blood pressure is elevated in full-term LBW infants remain unclear.
