Abstract excerpt

OBJECTIVE: The prevalence of obesity in Mexico has increased at an alarming rate in both adults and children. This study was undertaken to test in Mexican children the effects of single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNP) that have been associated with body mass index (BMI) and obesity in Europeans. METHODS: School-age children (N = 1,559, 5-17 years) were recruited in Mexico City. Thirty-five SNPs with established...
