Article Synopsis
- This study looks at how experiencing famine during childhood can affect kidney health in adults, especially focusing on the Chinese Great Famine from 1959-1962.
- Researchers used data from a large study with over 8,800 people to compare kidney function among those who were exposed to famine versus those who weren’t.
- They found that people who experienced famine as children or teenagers had lower kidney function later in life, meaning their kidneys were not working as well compared to those who were not exposed to famine.
