Abstract excerpt

OBJECTIVE: Large-scale genome-wide association (GWA) studies have thus far identified 16 loci incontrovertibly associated with obesity-related traits in adults. We examined associations of variants in these loci with anthropometric traits in children and adolescents. RESEARCH DESIGN AND METHODS:...
