Citations in the corpus
- The developmental origins of adult disease (2009, background): “A wealth of epidemiological evidence has provided a convincing link between a suboptimal gestational environment and an increased propensity to develop adult-onset metabolic disease [ 2 ,3].”
- Can targeted transfers improve birth outcomes?: Evidence from the introduction of the WIC program (2011, background): “the Dutch Famine in the third trimester had lower average birth weight than cohorts exposed earlier in pregnancy (Painter et al., 2005).”
- Epigenetic mechanisms that underpin metabolic and cardiovascular diseases (2009, positive): “Yet, some data, such as those from survivors of the Dutch 'Hunger Winter' (a short-term famine in 1944–45) indicate that individuals who were exposed to adverse conditions in utero need not have low birthweight to exhibit adverse effects subsequently”
- Instrumental Variable Estimation of the Causal Effect of Hunger Early in Life on Health Later in Life (2016, positive): “Studies based on the Dutch famine indicate significant long-run effects on adult morbidity.8 The overview in Painter et al. (2005) lists long-run effects on the risk of cardiovascular diseases, obesity, breast cancer, cholesterol levels, diabetes and selfperceived health.”
- Early life events and their consequences for later disease: A life history and evolutionary perspective (2007, background): “…these phenomena by manipulation of experimental animals of uniform genetic background (reviewed in Gluckman et al., 2005b; McMillen and Robinson, 2005) and by shortterm ‘‘natural experiments’’ such as the Dutch Hunger Winter (Painter et al., 2005) argues against a purely genetic explanation.”
