abstract：:There is adequate evidence that growth during the perinatal period is linked to the risk of several adult onset diseases, and recent findings indicate that the insulin-like growth factor (IGF) system is involved in prenatal growth, as reflected in birthweight. However, whether major components of the IGF system are in...
