Research studies have identified associations between a range of social, familial and psychological risk factor andphysicalhealth.However,therearemanymethodological limitationsinsuchstudies(e.g.self-reportedhealthstatus,retrospectiverecallofadverse events,andlack ofcontrolforpossible heritability effects). The current study seeks to assess the effect of a range of social and psychosocial risk factors on a diagnosis ofanyendocrine,nutritional,andmetabolic(ENM) disorders (ICD-10 E00-99) using linked Danish registry data fromalargebirthcohort.Datalinkage.Anationalbirthcohortof theDanishpopulationbornin1984wasusedinthecurrentstudy (n = 54,458). Psychosocial risk factors including parental history of diagnosis of an ENM disorder, advanced parental age, gender, urban dwelling, economic deprivation, family dissolutionandchildhoodadversity(childincare)wereusedtopredictanyENMdiagnosis.Bivariateassociationsshowedthatall variables,exceptadvancedpaternalage,weresignificantlyassociatedwithENMdiagnosis.Whenthevariableswereentered into a multivariate binary logistic regression analysis childhood adversity (child in care) was the strongest predictor of diagnosis (OR = 2.36) followed by maternal diagnosis of an endocrine disorder (OR = 1.74) and advanced maternal age (OR = 1.69). Results suggest that childhood adversity is the dominant factor in the prediction of an ENM diagnosis.
