- Movement Systems as Dynamical Systems (2003, background): “exacerbated in environments that differ in cultural The ACE gene is one of a number of candidate constraints including caloric availability.[70] Genetic genes associated by research with inter-individual propensity towards adiposity has less of a con- variability in physical endurance performance.”
- Changes in Perceived Weight Discrimination Among Americans, 1995–1996 Through 2004–2006 (2008, background): “Although research has challenged this notion and illustrated the complex interaction of biology, genetics, and the environment as important contributors to weight gain (27,28), the view that obesity stems from individual choice remains common.”
- Hypertrophy and/or Hyperplasia: Dynamics of Adipose Tissue Growth (2009, background): “Adipose tissue obesity phenotypes are influenced by diet and genetics, as well as by their interaction [1–4].”
- Natural selection on the genetical component of variance in body condition in a wild bird population (2001, result): “Similar conclusions have been reached from analysis of data on humans (Barsh et al., 2000 and references therein) and laboratory populations of rodents (e.g. Chagnon & Bouchard, 1996; Brockmann et al., 1998).”
- Polygenic prediction of weight and obesity trajectories from birth to adulthood (2019, background): “Inherited susceptibility to obesity can, in rare cases, be attributed to a large-effect mutation that perturbs energy homeostasis or fat deposition (Barsh et al., 2000).”
- THE ECONOMIC CAUSES OF OBESITY: A SURVEY (2008, neutral): “A minimal level of food consumption is required for living and for maintaining body weight but why do people overeat? What has upset the balance between energy intake and expenditure in recent decades? In the non-economic literature, blame has been largely attributed to our genes (Comuzzie and Allis”
- Genetics of obesity in humans. (2006, background): “However, it is important to recognize the significant contribution of hereditary influences on weight, especially at a time when we are beginning to develop an understanding of the molecules involved in the control of energy homeostasis and how genetic variation within them can influence human obesi”
