TL;DR: Results from analyses of opposite sex pairs showed evidence of sex-specific genetic effects suggesting there may be some differences between men and women in the genetic factors that influence variation in BMI, and encourage the continued search for genes of importance to the body composition and the development of obesity.

TL;DR: MZ pairs have a high probability of being concordant, regardless of sex or HLA genotype, and most of the affected co-twins receive a diagnosis within two years.

TL;DR: There is a correlation between cigarette smoking habit, rotator cuff tear, and tear size and there was an increasing daily average number ofcigarettes and the total number of cigarettes smoked in life across patients with increasing severity of tears.

TL;DR: Multivariate genetic modeling showed that genes influencing self-esteem, life satisfaction, and optimism are largely overlapping, and suggested that a sizeable amount of variance in the traits may be explained by environmental effects specific to each of them.

TL;DR: In this article, the authors analyzed the genetic and environmental contributions to BMI variation from infancy to early adulthood and the ways they differ by sex and geographic regions representing high (North America and Australia), moderate (Europe), and low levels (East Asia) of obesogenic environments.
