TL;DR: The inverse associations of birth weight and gestational age with systolic blood pressure are not explained by confounding resulting from family socioeconomic position or other factors that are shared by siblings, andVariations in maternal metabolic or vascular health during pregnancy or placental implantation and function may explain these associations.
