Article Synopsis
- Childhood adversity is associated with lasting psychological and physical health issues, including obesity and metabolic diseases, which can be linked to epigenetic changes.
- In a study involving two cohorts, researchers found that those with early life stress showed increased biological aging (measured by GrimAge Acceleration) and higher BMI and insulin resistance, particularly related to experiences of abuse.
- The findings suggest that epigenetic factors and the interactions with obesity might play key roles in understanding how childhood adversity impacts long-term health outcomes.
Childhood trauma is a known risk factor for trauma and stress-related disorders in adulthood. However, limited research has investigated the impact of childhood trauma on brain structure linked to later posttraumatic dysfunction. We investigated the effect of childhood trauma on white matter microstructure after recent trauma and its relationship with future posttraumatic dysfunction among trauma-exposed adult participants (n = 202) recruited from emergency departments as part of the AURORA Study.
