Tracking of physical activity from early childhood through youth into adulthood.

TL;DR: It is shown that physically active lifestyle starts to develop very early in childhood and that the stability of PA is moderate or high along the life course from youth to adulthood.
Journal ArticleDOI

Physical activity attenuates the influence of FTO variants on obesity risk: A meta-analysis of 218,166 adults and 19,268 children

Tuomas O. Kilpeläinen, +115 more
- 01 Nov 2011 - 
TL;DR: In this paper, a meta-analysis of data from 45 studies of adults and nine studies of children and adolescents was conducted to confirm or refute unambiguously whether physical activity attenuates the association of FTO with obesity risk.

Genome-wide physical activity interactions in adiposity. A meta-analysis of 200,452 adults

Mariaelisa Graff, +349 more
- 27 Apr 2017 - 
TL;DR: In additional genome-wide meta-analyses adjusting for PA and interaction with PA, 11 novel adiposity loci are identified, suggesting that accounting for PA or other environmental factors that contribute to variation in adiposity may facilitate gene discovery.
