Abstract excerpt

BACKGROUND/OBJECTIVES: The pathophysiology of obesity is multifactorial, including genetic and environmental factors. Previous studies had highlighted the association of the leptin gene/receptor with obesity. We aimed to study the leptin gene rs7799039 single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) in children, and its association with the children's characteristics. METHODS: A cross-sectional analytic study that included...
