Contribution of genetic and environmental factors to obesity indices and their overlap.

Diabetes, obesity & metabolism - 1 Apr 2026

Ani Alireza, Nolte Ilja Maria, Vaez Ahmad, Snieder Harold

Abstract excerpt

AIMS: Numerous indices have been developed to quantify obesity and the distribution of body fat; however, none are sufficient alone, and combined usage is complicated by their potential intercorrelation. This study aims to quantify genetic and environmental influences on anthropometric measures, 12 derived obesity indices and the extent of their overlap. MATERIALS AND METHODS: We used four anthropometric...
