Genetic polymorphisms in genes related to risk-taking behaviours predicting body mass index trajectory among Mexican American adolescents.

Pediatric obesity - 1 Oct 2017

Zhao Hua, Wilkinson Anna, Shen Jie, Wu Xifeng, Chow Wong-Ho

Abstract excerpt

OBJECTIVES: Obesity is associated with multiple health problems and often originates in childhood. The purpose is to investigate the associations of genetic polymorphisms in genes related to risk-taking behaviours with body mass index (BMI) trajectory over adolescence among Mexican Americans. METHODS: This study included 1229 Mexican American adolescents who participated in a large population-based cohort study...
