Abstract :
Impaired fetal growth may cause reduced compliance of the aorta and other large arteries, and predispose an individual to higher blood pressure in later life. We found that neither low birth size nor interaction between birth size and adult size were associated with arterial pulse-wave velocity in men and women aged 25 years.
