Abstract: 1 Many human fetuses have to adapt to a limited supply of nutrients In doing so they permanently change their structure and metabolism 2 These 'programmed' changes may be the origins of a number of diseases in later life, including coronary heart disease and the related disorders stroke, diabetes and hypertension 3 This review examines the evidence linking these diseases to fetal undernutrition and provides an overview of previous studies in this area

TL;DR: The results showed a strong association between obesity at this age and weight gain in the first four months of life, low birthweight, low ponderal index, reduced supine length and head circumference at the time of birth and smoking, poor weight gain and low mass body index of the mother during pregnancy.

Sven Neelsen,Thomas Stratmann +1 more
TL;DR: The authors found that the male 1919 cohort that had a strongly increased likelihood of fetal exposure to the pandemic performs significantly worse in terms of educational attainment and has a lower chance of marriage than the surrounding cohorts.

TL;DR: In this paper, the association between prenatal opioid exposure (POE) and attention-deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) symptoms in children 2-18 years old was investigated using PubMed, CINAHL, PsycINFO, and Web of Science from January of 1950 to October of 2019.

Prognostic Implications of Echocardiographically Determined Left Ventricular Mass in the Framingham Heart Study
TL;DR: The estimation of left ventricular mass by echocardiography offers prognostic information beyond that provided by the evaluation of traditional cardiovascular risk factors, and it is concluded that an increase in left Ventricular mass predicts a higher incidence of clinical events, including death, attributable to cardiovascular disease.

Sick individuals and sick populations
TL;DR: Aetiology confronts two distinct issues: the determinant of individual cases, and the determinants of incidence rate: if exposure to a necessary agent is homogeneous within a population, then case/control and cohort methods will fail to detect it.

C. N. Hales,David J.P. Barker,Penelope M.S. Clark,Lorna Cox,Caroline H.D. Fall,Clive Osmond,P D Winter +6 more
TL;DR: Reduced growth in early life is strongly linked with impaired glucose tolerance and non-insulin dependent diabetes and reduced early growth is also related to a raised plasma concentration of 32-33 split proinsulin, which is interpreted as a sign of beta cell dysfunction.
