Birth, Development, and Health
This cluster of papers explores the developmental origins of adult health and disease, focusing on the impact of in utero and early-life conditions on long-term health outcomes. The research covers topics such as fetal programming, metabolic syndrome, epigenetic mechanisms, catch-up growth, hypertension risk associated with low birth weight, and the role of glucocorticoid programming in chronic disease development.
Papers listed on taxonomy pages are the top few works per node from the OpenAlex snapshot. That list is not exhaustive and is not an endorsement. The topic map and the journal registry remain separate: there is still no authoritative topic-to-venue or topic-to-organization edge. Search is a lexical lookup, not a claim that a venue publishes a topic.
