Heritability variations of body linearity and obesity indicators during growth.

Homo : internationale Zeitschrift fur die vergleichende Forschung am Menschen - 1 Aug 2012

Abstract excerpt

Longitudinal as well as cross-sectional studies have shown variations with age in heritability estimates for body dimensions from infancy to adulthood, even though the patterns of variation are not completely clear. Further study on this subject is of great interest and may help obesity interventions for preventing or treating obesity in children. Therefore, the aim of the present study is to analyse the changes...
