Abstract excerpt

OBJECTIVE: A polymorphism near the promoter region of the IGF-I gene has been associated with serum IGF-I levels, body height and birth weight. In this study, we investigated whether this polymorphism is associated with body composition in young healthy subjects in two cohorts of different generations. DESIGN: Observational study with repeated measurements. METHODS: The study group consisted of two comparable...
