Resource allocation in utero and health in later life

Barker, D.J.P., Lampl, M., Roseboom, T., Winder, N.·2012·Placenta

Abstract

The way that a fetus obtains and allocates nutritional resources has profound consequences for its life-long health. Under the new developmental model for the origins of chronic disease, the causes to be identified are linked to normal variations in the processes of feto-placental development, that are associated with differences in the supply of nutrients to the baby. These differences programme the function of a few key systems that are linked to chronic disease, including the immune system, anti-oxidant defences, inflammation, and the number and quality of stem cells. There is not a separate cause for each different disease. Which chronic disease originates during development may depend more on timing than on qualitative differences in experience.

  • There are interactions between the current nutritional environment of the mother and her past nutritional history, as indicated by BMI and body composition, in determining placental phenotype.

    “There are also interactions between the current nutritional environment of the mother and her past nutritional history, as indicated by her body mass index (BMI) and body composition, in determining placental phenotype (29,521,527,556).”

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
