Prenatal nitrate exposure from diet and drinking water and timing of puberty in sons and daughters: A nationwide cohort study

Environment International, 2022
Background: In Western countries, age at pubertal development has declined during the last century in girls, and probably also in boys. No studies have investigated whether nitrate, a widespread environmental exposure with teratogenic and hormone ...

Assessment of Growth in Cardio‐Facio‐Cutaneous Syndrome

American Journal of Medical Genetics Part A, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Cardio‐facio‐cutaneous (CFC) syndrome is a rare, multiple congenital anomaly disorder in which individuals commonly experience faltering growth; however, systematic analysis of growth parameters in this disorder has not been performed. We recruited 69 participants with CFC through CFC International and collected data on assessing height ...

The Stability of Perceived Pubertal Timing Across Adolescence [PDF]

Journal of Youth and Adolescence, 2011
It is unknown whether perceived pubertal timing changes as puberty progresses or whether it is an important component of adolescent identity formation that is fixed early in pubertal development. The purpose of this study is to examine the stability of perceived pubertal timing among a school-based sample of rural adolescents aged 11 to 17 (N=6,425; 50%

DOHAD and early pubertal timing [PDF]

International Journal of Pediatric Endocrinology, 2015
Age at menarche varies widely between girls, is estimated to be highly heritable and is associated with long-term health outcomes, such as obesity and type 2 diabetes. Earlier pubertal maturation in boys and girls links rapid postnatal growth weight gain to later life metabolic and cardiovascular disease [1,2].
