  1. Where is the A in MCH?A Life-Course Perspective on Adolescent Health Michael C. Lu, MD, MPH Associate Professor Department of Obstetrics & Gynecology David Geffen School of Medicine at UCLA Department of Community Health Sciences UCLA School of Public Health AMCHP Web Conference November 17, 2006

  2. Life-Course Pespective • A way of looking at life not as disconnected stages, but as an integrated continuum

  3. Life-Course Pespective • To improve adolescent health, we must promote MCH. • To improve MCH, we must promote adolescent health.

  4. MCH Adolescent Health

  5. Children 6-18 Overweight Source: National Center for Health Statistics, National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey Note: Estimate not available for 1976-1980 for Hispanic; overweight defined as BMI at or above the 95th percentile ofr the CDC BMI-for-age growth charts

  6. Fetal Origin of Obesity

  7. Fetal Programming • The process whereby a stimulus or insult, at a sensitive or ‘critical’ period, has lasting or lifelong impact on health or function. Barker DJP. Mothers, babies and health in later life. Edinburgh: Churchill Livingstone. 1998.

  8. Prenatal Programming ofChildhood Overweight & Obesity

  9. Maternal Diabetes & Intrauterine Hyperglycemia Intrauterine Hyperinsulinemia (Fetal Pancreatic β Cells) Prenatal& Postnatal Hyperleptinemia Preadipocyte Differentiation Programmed Insulin Resistance Adipocyte Hyperplasia Postnatal Hyperinsulinemia Hypothalamic Leptin Resistance Pancreatic β- Cell Leptin Resistance Hyperphagia Hyperinsulinism Adipogenesis Prenatal Programming of Childhood Obesity Dysregulation of the Adipoinsular Feedback System Maternal Diabetes & Intrauterine Hyperglycemia Maternal Diabetes & Intrauterine Hyperglycemia Maternal Diabetes & Intrauterine Hyperglycemia Intrauterine Hyperinsulinemia (Fetal Pancreatic β Cells) Intrauterine Hyperinsulinemia (Fetal Pancreatic β Cells) Intrauterine Hyperinsulinemia (Fetal Pancreatic β Cells) Prenatal& Postnatal Hyperleptinemia Prenatal& Postnatal Hyperleptinemia Preadipocyte Differentiation Programmed Insulin Resistance Programmed Insulin Resistance Prenatal& Postnatal Hyperleptinemia Preadipocyte Differentiation Programmed Insulin Resistance Adipocyte Hyperplasia Adipocyte Hyperplasia Adipocyte Hyperplasia Postnatal Hyperinsulinemia Postnatal Hyperinsulinemia Postnatal Hyperinsulinemia Hypothalamic Leptin Resistance Hypothalamic Leptin Resistance Pancreatic β- Cell Leptin Resistance Pancreatic β- Cell Leptin Resistance Hypothalamic Leptin Resistance Pancreatic β- Cell Leptin Resistance Hyperphagia Hyperphagia Hyperphagia Hyperinsulinism Hyperinsulinism Hyperinsulinism Adipogenesis Adipogenesis

  16. Allostatic Load • Wear and tear on the body from chronic stress

  17. Allostasis Insulin Response Plasma Glucose Time

  18. Allostatic Load Plasma Glucose Insulin Resistance Time
