Birth weight associations with psychiatric and physical health, cognitive function, and DNA methylation differences in an adult population

2019-06-09

Abstract excerpt

<h4>Background</h4> The Developmental Origins of Adult Disease (DOAD) theory predicts that prenatal and early life events shape adult health outcomes. Birth weight is a useful indicator of the foetal experience, and has been associated with multiple adult health outcomes. DNA methylation (DNAm) is one plausible mechanism behind the relationship of birth weight to adult health. <h4>Methods</h4> The Generation Sco...
