Abstract excerpt

BACKGROUND AND AIMS: Genome-wide association studies (GWAS) have identified several loci that are associated with body mass index (BMI = kg/m(2)). However, little is known regarding whether the genetic basis of BMI differs among children of diverse racial/ethnic backgrounds, how the cumulative ef...
