这个子项目是许多研究子项目中利用 资源由NIH/NCRR资助的中心拨款提供。子项目和 调查员(PI)可能从NIH的另一个来源获得了主要资金， 并因此可以在其他清晰的条目中表示。列出的机构是 该中心不一定是调查人员的机构。 这项研究的主要目的是确定早期忽视和剥夺是否会影响儿童的应激敏感系统、下丘脑-垂体-肾上腺皮质(HPA)轴和生长激素(GH)系统的发育和相互作用，从而影响收容后儿童的身体发育。

This subproject is one of many research subprojects utilizing the resources provided by a Center grant funded by NIH/NCRR. The subproject and investigator (PI) may have received primary funding from another NIH source, and thus could be represented in other CRISP entries. The institution listed is for the Center, which is not necessarily the institution for the investigator. The main goal of this research program is to determine whether early neglect and deprivatoin can influence the development and interactions between the stress-sensitive system, the hypothalamic-pituitary-adrenocortical (HPA) axis and the growth hormone (GH) system in children that affect physical growth in post-institutionalized children.
