Racial Disparities in Methylation of NRF1, FTO, and LEPR Gene in Childhood Obesity

4 Nov 2022

Abstract excerpt

Childhood obesity has affected the health of millions of children around the world despite vigorous efforts by health experts. The obesity epidemic in the United States has disproportionately afflicted certain racial and ethnic minority groups. African American children are more likely than other children to have obesity-related risk factors such as hyperlipidemia, diabetes, cardiovascular disease, and...
