Abstract excerpt

OBJECTIVE: The objective of this study was to investigate whether differences in admixture in African-American (AFA) and Hispanic-American (HA) adult women are associated with adiposity and adipose distribution. DESIGN: The proportion of European, sub-Saharan African and Amerindian admixture was...
