24 May 2025
Abstract excerpt
Boys' pubertal overweight associates with future offspring's asthma and low lung function. To identify how paternal overweight is associated with offspring's DNA methylation (DNAm), we conducted an epigenome-wide association study of father's body silhouette (FBS) at three timepoints (age 8, voice break and 30) and change in FBS between these times, with offspring DNAm, in the RHINESSA cohort (N = 339).
