Abstract excerpt

PURPOSE: To characterize the prevalence of and contributing factors to adult obesity in the most common recurrent copy-number variation (CNV), 22q11.2 deletion, given that other rare CNVs are known to have obesity phenotypes. METHODS: In 207 adults with 22q11.2 deletion syndrome (22q11.2DS), we used available height and weight measurements to calculate body mass index (BMI) and recorded associated factors that...
