“…Children born in winter were more likely to be preterm compared with those born in spring (Lee, Steer, & Filippi, 2006), and also had the lowest birth weights (Lawlor, Leon, & Smith, 2005), the highest levels of innate immune cells, (Thysen et al, 2016), and the greatest odds of high IgE when compared to summer births (Susanto et al, 2017). People born in autumn had a higher risk of asthma (Knudsen et al, 2007), allergy (Lockett et al, 2016), cardiovascular diseases (Tornhammar et al, 2014), and those born in winter had a lower risk of dementia (Ding, He, Song, & Zheng, 2019). However, individuals born in autumn lived longer than those born in spring (Doblhammer & Vaupel, 2001;Ueda, Bonamy, Granath, & Cnattingius, 2013;Vaiserman, Collinson, Koshel, Belaja, & Voitenko, 2002).…”
