Genetic and environmental components of neonatal weight gain in preterm infants.

Pediatrics - 1 Feb 2012

Abstract excerpt

BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES: Postnatal nutrition and subsequent weight gain or failure in the neonatal period are likely regulated by both the environment and the genetic background. With the goal of estimating the variability of postnatal weight gain due to genes and environment, comparison between monozygotic (ie, genetically identical) and dizygotic (genetically similar as 2 siblings) twins can be performed....
