Significats de pubertal timing en anglès

There are well-described inverse relationships between female pubertal timing and obesity.

Background: Non-participation in aetiologic studies of pubertal timing is frequent.

However, the epigenetic pathways mediating the effects of nutrition and obesity on pubertal timing are unknown.

Birthweight, breastfeeding, height growth and pubertal timing were not associated with incidence of Type 1 diabetes.

Taken together, these facts should prompt the search for common genetic regulators of pubertal timing and bone acquisition.

Several conditions modify pubertal timing and bone acquisition, a certain number of them acting in concert on both traits.

Discussion: These results suggest that exposure to specific PAHs during childhood may influence adiposity throughout adolescence and effect pubertal timing.

Conclusion: In conclusion, the risk of selection bias in aetiologic studies on pubertal timing in the Puberty Cohort appears minimal.

However, little effort has been given to explore the risk and potential impact of selection bias in studies of pubertal timing.

We identify predictors of drinking in the adolescent twins' home environments and in their dispositional behaviors, sibling interactions, and pubertal timing.

Objectives: We investigated if an indicator of poor placental function, low gestational age-specific Z-score for placental weight at birth, was associated with earlier pubertal timing.

Pubertal timing predicted development of two parent-reported and three self-reported problem scales.
