No results posted yet for this study

Summary

The aim of the present study is to identify new obesity-related genetic defects and determine their association with clinical manifestations in families with childhood-onset severe obesity. The investigators hypothesize that by exploring children with severe early-onset obesity they can find new obesity-related genetic defects and by exploring obesity-associated clinical manifestations the investigators can elucidate the outcomes of severe childhood obesity.
