Genetically versus environmentally influenced obesity and risk of mortality and non-communicable diseases: A cohort study from the UK Biobank

2026-01-07

Abstract excerpt

<title>Abstract</title> <p>Background Previous research indicate that obesity is less harmful in people with genetic predisposition to high body mass index (BMI), compared to obesity driven by other factors such as environment or lifestyle. Yet differences between genetically and environmentally influenced adiposity in relation to health outcomes remain unexplored, and have not examined adiposity measures beyond...
