TL;DR: This first genome-wide scan for abdominal fat assessed by computed tomography indicates that there may be several loci determining the propensity to store fat in the abdominal depot and that some of these loci may influence the development of diabetes in obese subjects.
Journal ArticleDOI
Familial resemblance of plasma lipids, lipoproteins and postheparin lipoprotein and hepatic lipases in the HERITAGE Family Study.

TL;DR: The results confirm the findings of previous family studies showing that genetic factors are major determinants of the familial resemblance in plasma lipids and lipoproteins and suggest the presence of sex differences in the heritability of postheparin LPL activity.
Journal ArticleDOI
BMI, fat mass, abdominal adiposity and visceral fat: where is the 'beef'?
Journal ArticleDOI
Original article underweight, overweight and obesity: relationships with mortality in the 13-year follow-up of the Canada Fitness Survey.
TL;DR: Underweight, overweight and obese Canadians are all at increased risk of mortality compared to those who are normal weight, and similar patterns were observed in sex-specific analyses.
