Abstract excerpt

BACKGROUND: The association between the fat mass- and obesity-associated (FTO) gene and a predisposition to obesity is inconsistent in adult Asian populations. We investigated the association of the FTO gene with weight status in Japanese children and adolescents. DESIGN/SETTING: Nested case-control study and 3-yr longitudinal study - In the Shunan Child Cohort Study, fifth and eighth grade students attending all...
