Abstract excerpt

The National Heart, Lung, and Blood Institute Family Heart Study (FHS) genome-wide linkage scan identified a region of chromosome 7q31-34 with a lod score of 4.9 for BMI at D7S1804 (131.9 Mb). We report the results of linkage and association to BMI in this region for two independent FHS samples....
