  • Novel Genetic Loci Identified for the Pathophysiology of Childhood Obesity in the Hispanic Population - Unknown journal (n.d.) · Unknown authors · PubMed 23251661

    ABSTRACT: Genetic variants responsible for susceptibility to obesity and its comorbidities among Hispanic children have not been identified. The VIVA LA FAMILIA Study was designed to genetically map childhood obesity and associated biological processes in the Hispanic population. A genome-wide association study (GWAS) entailed genotyping 1.1 million single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) using the Illumina Infinium technology in 815 children. Measured genotype analysis was performed between genetic markers and obesity-related traits i.e., anthropometry, body composition, growth, metabolites, hormones, inflammation, diet, energy expenditure, substrate utilization and physical activity. Identified genome-wide significant loci: 1) corroborated genes implicated in other studies (MTNR1B, ZNF259

Lifestyle context

Concrete actions anchored to the cited research. We do not prescribe, we describe.

Exercise

  • Regular structured physical activity Low

    Exercise mitigates genetic obesity risk via energy expenditure and metabolism

    Aim for 150 minutes moderate aerobic plus 2x per week resistance training

Lifestyle

  • Awareness of caloric balance Low

    Genetic obesity risk may be moderated by dietary energy balance

    Monitor caloric intake and food quality; seek dietitian if weight management needed

Screening

  • Weight and metabolic trait monitoring Moderate

    rs11006263 G allele associates with increased obesity-related traits

    Regular BMI and weight assessment; metabolic panel every 1-2 years
