Abstract excerpt

Because information on weight changes after lifestyle intervention in children with mutations in the melanocortin 4 receptor (MC4R) gene is scarce, we compared weight changes after lifestyle intervention between children with and without MC4R variations. A group of 514 overweight children (aged 5-16 years), who presented to participate in a 1-year lifestyle intervention based on exercise, behavior, and nutrition...
