BACKGROUND: Early adiposity rebound (AR) has been associated with increased risk of overweight or obesity in adulthood. However, little is known about early predictors of age at AR. We aimed to study the role of perinatal factors and genetic susceptibility to obesity in the kinetics of AR. METHODS: Body mass index (BMI) curves were modelled by using mixed-effects cubic models, and age at AR was estimated for 1415...
