Sex distribution of offspring-parents obesity: Angel's hypothesis revisited [PDF]
This study, which is based on two cross sectional surveys' data, aims to establish any effect of parental obesity sex distribution of offspring and to replicate the results that led to the hypothesis that obesity may be associated with sex-linked ...

Neurodevelopment in offspring‐of hairdressers [PDF]
The hypothesis that intrauterine exposure to hairdressers' chemicals adversely affects neurodevelopment of the offspring was investigated. Neurodevelopmental characteristics were analysed using a historical cohort study of reproductive disorders among hairdressers in The Netherlands.

Evidence for inbreeding depression in a species with limited opportunity for maternal effects [PDF]
It is often assumed that mating with close relatives reduces offspring fitness. In such cases, reduced offspring fitness may arise from inbreeding depression (i.e., genetic effects of elevated homozygosity) or from post-mating maternal investment.
