Early-life malnutrition exposure associated with higher osteoporosis risk in adulthood: a large-scale cross-sectional study

Evidence on the association between early-life malnutrition exposure at different developmental stages and the subsequent risk of osteoporosis and fractures in adulthood remains sparse and equivocal. This study sought to elucidate the relationship between malnutrition exposure in early life and the occurrence of osteoporosis and fractures later in life.
