Study Details

Study Description

Brief Summary

the investigators tested whether genetic variants near FADS cluster, which were recently identified to be signatures of adaptation to fish- and n-3 PUFAs-rich diet, interacted with these dietary factors on long-term change of body mass index (BMI).

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcome Measures

  1. weight changes [6-10 years]

    long term weight changes: this study measured body weight at baseline (1990) and follow up body weight in 2000. The long term body weight was defined as changes from baseline to follow up endpoint
