Abstract excerpt

We investigated candidate genomic regions associated with computed tomography (CT)-derived measures of adiposity in Hispanics from the Insulin Resistance Atherosclerosis Study Family Study (IRASFS). In 1,190 Hispanic individuals from 92 families 3 from the San Luis Valley, Colorado and San Antonio, Texas, we measured CT-derived visceral adipose tissue (VAT), subcutaneous adipose tissue (SAT), and...
