Genetic underpinnings of regional adiposity distribution in African Americans: Assessments from the Jackson Heart Study

BACKGROUND: African ancestry individuals with comparable overall anthropometric measures to Europeans have lower abdominal adiposity. To explore the genetic underpinning of different adiposity patterns, we investigated whether genetic risk scores for well-studied adiposity phenotypes like body mass...
