Abstract excerpt

BACKGROUND/OBJECTIVES: To identify copy number variants (CNVs) which are associated with body mass index (BMI). SUBJECTS/METHODS: CNVs were identified using array comparative genomic hybridization (aCGH) on members of pedigrees ascertained through severely obese (BMI ≥ 35 kg/m(2)) sib pairs (86 pedigrees) and thin (BMI ≤ 23 kg/m(2)) probands (3 pedigrees). Association was inferred through pleiotropy of BMI with...
