Agregação familiar na adiposidade do tronco: um estudo em famílias nucleares portuguesas

Abstract: Este estudo teve como objetivos: 1) identificar a presença indireta de transmissão vertical de fatores genéticos entre progenitores e descendentes em dois fenótipos da adiposidade do tronco (AT); 2) estimar a contribuição dos fatores genéticos e ambientais responsáveis pela variabilidade fenotípica da adiposidade do tronco relativa (ATrel) e absoluta (ATabs) em termos populacionais. A amostra foi constituída por 422 indivíduos pertencentes a 107 famílias nucleares portuguesas. Os fenótipos da AT foram avaliado… Show more

“…For example, two Portuguese family studies by Souza et al . [ 67 ] and de Chaves et al [ 68 ] reported the presence of genetic factors explaining from 30% to 50% of the total variance in different body composition phenotypes, which agrees with our findings that parental BMI is positively correlated with their child’s BMI.…”
