Heritability of Determinants of the Metabolic Syndrome among Healthy Arabs of the Oman Family Study

1 Mar 2007

Abstract excerpt

The metabolic syndrome, as defined by the International Diabetes Federation, was investigated in five large, extended, highly consanguineous, healthy Omani Arab families of a total of 1277 individuals. Heritability (h2) of the phenotypic abnormalities that make up the syndrome and other related traits was estimated by variance decomposition method using SOLAR software. The overall prevalence of the syndrome was...
