Abstract excerpt

Background: The genetic associations with trajectories of body fatness over the life course remain unknown. Methods: We used a group-based modelling approach to identify trajectories of body fatness from age 5 years up to 65 for 7277 women from the Nurses' Health Study and 4645 men from the Health Professionals Follow-up Study. We created a genetic risk score (GRS) based on 97 variants associated with adulthood...
