There is an epidemic of renal failure in Aboriginal people who also have high rates of premature birth of small babies. This project aims to understand the causes of kidney failure in Aboriginal people through testing if stress during pregnancy leads to the birth of preterm, small babies with small poorly formed kidneys that lead to kidney failure in later life. The effect of stressors impacting on pregnant women including infections, exposure to smoking and social stressors will be examined.

原住民中肾衰竭流行，小婴儿早产率也很高。该项目旨在通过测试怀孕期间的压力是否会导致早产、小婴儿的出生，从而了解土著人肾功能衰竭的原因，这些婴儿的肾脏发育不良，导致日后肾功能衰竭。将研究影响孕妇的压力因素的影响，包括感染、吸烟和社会压力因素。
