International Journal of Epidemiology, 04/14/09
Risnes KR et al. - Head circumference at birth was inversely associated with deaths from CHD, and the combination of small head and tall mother, or small head and high adult body mass, was associated with the highest risk. These findings suggest that combined effects of genetic factors (growth potential and intrauterine growth) and non-genetic factors acting throughout the life course (intrauterine growth restriction and later weight gain) could mediate the effects of birth size on adult heart disease.
