Famine exposure in early life increases risk of cataracts in elderly stage [PDF]

Frontiers in Nutrition
BackgroundEpidemiological studies have shown that early-life nutritional deficiencies are associated with an increased risk of diseases later in life. This study aimed to explore the correlation between famine exposure during the early stages of life and

Association between Early Life Famine Exposure and Metabolic Syndrome in Adulthood [PDF]

Nutrients, 2022
To analyze the relationship between famine exposure at different stages of early life and the risk of developing metabolic syndrome (MetS) in adulthood, 11,865 study participants from the 2015 Chinese Adult Chronic Disease and Nutrition Surveillance ...

Survival effects of prenatal famine exposure [PDF]

The American Journal of Clinical Nutrition, 2012
Adverse intrauterine conditions are known to be associated with an increased risk of chronic diseases in adult life. Previously, we showed that prenatal famine exposure increased the incidence of cardiovascular and metabolic disease in adulthood.We examined the association between prenatal famine exposure and adult mortality.We studied adult mortality ...

Prenatal famine exposure and mental health in later midlife [PDF]

Aging & Mental Health, 2017
Maternal malnutrition during pregnancy may have long-lasting effects on offspring's mental health. We investigate the effect of prenatal exposure to the Dutch famine (mid November 1944 to late April 1945) on mental health in later mid-life.Data are from the Netherlands Kinship Panel Study (n = 642).

Impaired Insulin Secretion After Prenatal Exposure to the Dutch Famine [PDF]

Diabetes Care, 2006
OBJECTIVE—We previously reported that people prenatally exposed to famine during the Dutch Hunger Winter of 1944–1945 have higher 2-h glucose concentrations after an oral glucose tolerance test in later life. We aimed to determine whether this association is mediated through alterations in insulin secretion, insulin sensitivity, or a combination of ...

Adults prenatally exposed to the Dutch Famine exhibit a metabolic signature associated with a broad spectrum of common diseases

BMC Medicine
Background Exposure to famine in the prenatal period is associated with an increased risk of metabolic disease, including obesity and type 2 diabetes. We employed nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) metabolomic profiling to identify the metabolic changes ...

Prenatal famine exposure and cognition at age 59 years [PDF]

International Journal of Epidemiology, 2011
Despite the perceived importance of early life nutrition for mental development, few studies have related gestational undernutrition to later-life cognitive functioning. We investigated the consequences of gestational exposure to the Dutch famine of 1944-45 for cognitive functioning at the age of 59 years.We recruited men and women who were (i) born in
