| Abstract | The short-term impact of famines on death and disease is well documented, but estimating theirpotential long-term impact is difficult. We used the setting of the man-made Ukrainian Holodomorfamine of 1932–1933 to examine the relation between prenatal famine and adult type 2 diabetes mellitus(T2DM). This ecological study included 128,225 T2DM cases diagnosed from 2000 to 2008 among10,186,016 male and female Ukrainians born from 1930 to 1938. Individuals who were born inthe first half-year of 1934, and hence exposed in early gestation to the mid-1933 peak famine period,had a greater than twofold likelihood of T2DM compared with that of unexposed controls. There wasa dose-response relationship between severity of famine exposure and increase in adult T2DM risk. |
