Epidemiological study designs to investigate gene-behavior interactions in the context of human obesity.

Obesity (Silver Spring, Md.) - 1 Dec 2008

Wareham Nicholas J, Young Elizabeth H, Loos Ruth J F

Abstract excerpt

The epidemiology of obesity suggests that, for the majority of individuals, the disorder arises from an interaction between genetic predisposition and lifestyle behaviors such as dietary intake and physical activity. Unravelling the molecular basis of such interactions is complex but is becoming a realistic proposition as evidence emerges from whole genome association studies of genetic variants that are...
