Journal ArticleDOI
Exposure to the Chinese famine of 1959-61 in early life and long-term health conditions: a systematic review and meta-analysis.
Chihua Li,L.H. Lumey +1 more
TL;DR: The authors conducted a systematic review and meta-analysis to summarise reported reported famine effects on long-term health in Chinese middle-aged Chinese people and found that exposure to the Great Leap Forward Famine could have profound longterm health consequences for exposed birth cohorts.
Journal ArticleDOI
Early gestation as the critical time-window for changes in the prenatal environment to affect the adult human blood methylome
Elmar W. Tobi,Roderick C. Slieker,Aryeh D. Stein,H. Eka D. Suchiman,P. Eline Slagboom,Erik W. van Zwet,Bastiaan T. Heijmans,L.H. Lumey,L.H. Lumey +8 more
TL;DR: Early gestation, and not mid or late gestation, is identified as a critical time-period for adult DNA methylation changes in whole blood after prenatal exposure to famine.
Journal ArticleDOI
Maternal exposure to the Dutch Famine before conception and during pregnancy: quality of life and depressive symptoms in adult offspring.
TL;DR: A mother's exposure to famine prior to conception of her offspring was associated with lower self-reported measures of mental health and quality of life in her adult offspring.
Journal ArticleDOI
Hypermethylation at loci sensitive to the prenatal environment is associated with increased incidence of myocardial infarction
Rudolf P. Talens,J W Jukema,S. Trompet,D Kremer,R G J Westendorp,L.H. Lumey,Naveed Sattar,Hein Putter,P E Slagboom,Bastiaan T. Heijmans +9 more
TL;DR: The risk of MI in women is associated with DNA methylation marks at specific loci previously shown to be sensitive to prenatal conditions, and this observation may reflect a developmental component of MI.
Journal ArticleDOI
Associations of gestational exposure to famine with energy balance and macronutrient density of the diet at age 58 years differ according to the reference population used
TL;DR: Associations were weak, differed by choice of control, and may reflect sampling variability or methodological differences, and could explain the increased weight of famine-exposed individuals.
