Abstract excerpt

INTRODUCTION: The aim of this study was to assess the role of TNF-α 308 G>A gene polymorphism in children's overweight risk so as to correlate this polymorphism with anthropometric and biochemical variables. MATERIALS AND METHOD: A cross-sectional study was carried out on 188 Romanian children ages 5-18 years, who were classified into controls (Group 1; n = 109) and overweight children (Group 2; n = 79). RESULTS:...
