3、sulin dependent diabetes(T2DM).生命早期生长降低与成年期(64岁)糖耐量受损和非胰岛素依赖型糖尿病密切相关。研究样本 466 男性(59-70 岁,平均 64 岁)Hales CN,Barker DJ,et al.BMJ 1991;303:1019-22.,OBJECTIVE:To discover whether reduced fetal and infant growth is associated with non-insulin dependent diabetes and impaired glucose tolerance in adult life
4、.DESIGN:Follow up study of men born during 1920-30 whose birth weights and weights at 1 year were known.SETTING:Hertfordshire,England.SUBJECTS:468 men born in east Hertfordshire and still living there.Men known to have diabetes were excluded.MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES:Fasting plasma glucose,insulin,proin

6、men had impaired glucose tolerance or hitherto undiagnosed diabetes.They had had a lower mean birth weight and a lower weight at 1 year.The proportion of men with impaired glucose tolerance fell progressively from 26%(6/23)among those who had weighted 18 lb(8.16 kg)or less at 1 year to 13%(3/24)amon
7、g those who had weighed 27 lb(12.25 kg)or more.Corresponding figures for diabetes were 17%(4/23)and nil(0/24).Plasma glucose concentrations at 30 and 120 minutes fell with increasing birth weight and weight at 1 year.Plasma 32-33 split proinsulin concentration fell with increasing weight at 1 year.A
8、ll these trends were significant and independent of current body mass.Blood pressure was inversely related to birth weight and strongly related to plasma glucose and 32-33 split proinsulin concentrations.CONCLUSIONS:Reduced growth in early life is strongly linked with impaired glucose tolerance and
9、non-insulin dependent diabetes.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.Reduced intrauterine growth is linked with high blood pressure,which may explain the association between hypertension

21、J Epidemiol;161(1):27-32.,Some researchers have recently questioned the validity of associations between birth weight and health in later life.They argue that these associations might be due in part to inappropriate statistical adjustment for variables on the causal pathway(such as current body size
