Abstract excerpt
This study examined the association of insulin resistance with single-nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) 276G>T at adiponectin gene and the plasma long-chain polyunsaturated fatty acids (LCPUFAs) profile in obese children. One hundred thirty-one normolipidaemic obese children aged 8-13 y (53 girls and 68 boys) entered the study. The prevalence of T allele carriers at SNP276 was 48.8%. Mean [SD] values of fasting...
