Abstract excerpt

FTO affects changes in BMI during both childhood and adulthood. However, its effect on onset age of overweight in adulthood is not known. To address this question, we conducted a study to examine effects of FTO tag SNPs on censored age of overweight in the longitudinal Bogalusa Heart Study (BHS) cohort, which began in 1973-1974. Of participating subjects, 658 whites (308 males and 350 females) with genotype data...
