Abstract excerpt

BACKGROUND: The prevalence of childhood obesity has been dramatically increasing in developing countries as it has been reported for developed nations. Identifying susceptibility genes in early life could provide the foundations for interventions in lifestyle to prevent obese children to become obese adults. OBJECTIVES: The objective of this study was to evaluate the influence of genetic variants related to...
