Olugbenger: As more studies on birth order emerge,
being the oldest sibling is turning out to
be less a source of trivial pride and
more of a reason to make a doctor's
appointment. The latest finding: First-
borns face an increased risk for diabetes and hypertension. Researchers at the University of
Auckland in New Zealand evaluated 85
healthy children, including 32 first-
borns, between the ages of 4 and 11.
They found that the first-born children
had trouble absorbing sugars, which puts them at higher diabetes risk, and
had higher daytime blood pressure.
The first-borns' diabetes risk was
further magnified by insulin sensitivity
that was 21 percent lower, on average,
than their younger sibilings', according
to the study, which was published in
the Journal of Clinical Endocrinology & Metabolism, "Although birth order alone is not a
predictor of metabolic or cardiovascular
disease, being the first-born child in a
family can contribute to a person's
overall risk," said Wayne Cutfield, one
of the study’s researchers in a press release. Scientists attributed the increased risk
to the effects that a mother’s first
pregnancy has on her uterus. These
physical changes better prepare the
uterus for future pregnancies. Later
fetuses benefit from an increased flow of nutrients that help produce healthier
children. However, the news is not all bad for
first-borns. Researchers also found that
the 32 first-borns were taller and
slimmer than the 53 other children. “Although first-borns were taller and
slimmer, these children had reduced
insulin sensitivity and increased
daytime blood pressure compared to
later-borns,” the study concludes. “This
finding may have important public health implications, in light of a
worldwide trend toward smaller
families.” Previous birth order studies have
revealed some predictors for a child’s
future health and personality. The
results are a mixed bag of good and bad
for first and later-born babies: Asthma and Allergy Rates. In 2008,
research from the Isle of Wight in the
United Kingdom revealed higher
asthma and allergy rates in first-born
babies. A sample of 1,200 newborns
showed that first-borns were at a higher risk of having increased cord-
blood IgE levels, a strong indicator of
allergic development. Similar to the
heightened diabetes risk of first-borns,
these elevated rates were linked to the
condition of the uterus before pregnancy. Heart Disease. A study conducted by Dr.
Maurizio Ferratini of the Fondazione
Don Carlo Gnocchi in Milan found that
first-borns could face up to a 60 percent
increased risk of developing heart
disease compared to their siblings. The Italian study of 348 coronary heart
disease patients reported that nearly
half were first-borns, compared to only
30 percent of the national population. Intelligence. First-borns might be at an
increased risk for specific health
conditions, but being the oldest sibling
isn’t all bad. In addition to developing
taller and thinner physically, first-borns
are have several desirable personality traits. The oldest child is typically
smarter than their younger siblings.
Researchers at Adelphi University cited
a first-born's tendency to be more of a
"perfectionist" as a possible
explanation.

olawalebabs: If lecture should start, what will be the fate of this thread?

Ihedinobi: I've been looking at this thread from time to time. It's extremely boring, to put it mildly. Just seems like an "I've got to get my own back even if I have to be stupid about it" thread. I mean look at this op:



Look at the bolded. Why can it not be that these "intellectual cowards" discovered or confirmed what the problems with atheism and agnosticism are from the listed studies and experiences? Why should their reason fir remaining Christians not be that atheism and agnosticism and other existential persuasions were proven false by all the activities on that list?



See my words in red. This post is pretty much the gasping of a frustrated man.

@Olugbenger, what you're doing is not very Christlike, brother.
