Abstract

Early life adversity is a risk factor for many diseases, but the related mechanism is not clear. Some research clues suggest that early life adversity is related to biological aging, and at present, the more recognized biological aging index is telomere length. Therefore, exploring the relationship between early life adversity and telomere length is of great significance to reveal the related mechanism of adversity. Through a review of previous literature, this paper discusses the possible effects of different adversity types, exposure time and research design on the relationship between early life adversity and telomere length, so as to provide a basis for the intervention of early life adversity.
