Association Between Fat Mass in Early Life and Later Fat Mass Trajectories
JAMA Pediatrics, 2020 A rapid increase in weight in early life is associated with an increased risk for adiposity and cardiovascular diseases at age 21 years and beyond. However, data on associations of early change in measured fat mass percentage (FM%) with adiposity development are lacking.To investigate whether a rapid increase in FM% in the first months of life is ...
