Body composition measures were obtained, and regional fat and lean mass patterns were characterized.

Total lean mass was significantly lower in PWS than in obese subjects for arms, trunk, and especially legs. Furthermore, two body regions (legs and trunk) showed significant differences for fat and lean measures between PWS and obese males. However, significant differences between PWS and obese females for these measures were found only for the legs. No significant differences were identified between PWS deletion and uniparental disomy subjects.<\/jats:p><jats:p><jats:italic>Discussion:<\/jats:italic> Our results demonstrate that PWS individuals do, in fact, have an unusual body composition and fatness patterns, characterized by reduced lean tissue and increased adiposity, with PWS males contributing most with fat patterns more similar to females.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1038\/oby.2006.193","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2008,4,23]],"date-time":"2008-04-23T14:29:17Z","timestamp":1208960957000},"page":"1685-1690","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1002\/crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":99,"title":["Body Composition and Fatness Patterns in Prader\u2010Willi Syndrome: Comparison with Simple Obesity"],"prefix":"10.1002","volume":"14","author":[{"given":"Mariana F.","family":"Theodoro","sequence":"first","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Zohreh","family":"Talebizadeh","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Merlin G.","family":"Butler","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"311","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2012,9,6]]},"reference":[{"key":"e_1_2_7_2_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/0045-9380(84)90043-4"},{"key":"e_1_2_7_3_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1002\/ajmg.1320230307"},{"key":"e_1_2_7_4_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1002\/ajmg.1320350306"},{"key":"e_1_2_7_5_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1542\/peds.91.2.398"},{"key":"e_1_2_7_6_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1136\/jmg.34.11.917"},{"key":"e_1_2_7_7_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1097\/00019616-200010041-00002"},{"key":"e_1_2_7_8_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/S0022-3476(99)70419-1"},{"key":"e_1_2_7_9_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/S0026-0495(98)90003-8"},{"key":"e_1_2_7_10_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1002\/ajmg.1320440118"},{"key":"e_1_2_7_11_2","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"752","DOI":"10.1093\/ajcn\/71.3.752","article-title":"Energy expenditure at rest and during sleep in children with Prader\u2010Willi syndrome is explained by body composition","volume":"71","author":"Mil EA","year":"2000","journal-title":"Am J Clin Nutr"},{"key":"e_1_2_7_12_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1093\/ajcn\/65.5.1369"},{"key":"e_1_2_7_13_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1093\/ajcn\/75.3.468"},{"key":"e_1_2_7_14_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1002\/ajmg.1556"},{"key":"e_1_2_7_15_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1002\/(SICI)1096-8628(19961016)65:2<137::AID-AJMG11>3.0.CO;2-R"},{"key":"e_1_2_7_16_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1136\/jmg.39.3.202"},{"key":"e_1_2_7_17_2","first-page":"1","article-title":"CDC growth charts: United States","volume":"8","author":"Kuczmarski RJ","year":"2000","journal-title":"Adv Data"},{"key":"e_1_2_7_18_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1525\/maq.1989.3.3.02a00080"},{"key":"e_1_2_7_19_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1210\/jc.2005-0829"},{"key":"e_1_2_7_20_2","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"1540","DOI":"10.1093\/ajcn\/65.5.1540","article-title":"A distinctive obesity: body composition provides the clue","volume":"65","author":"Forbes GB","year":"1997","journal-title":"Am J Clin Nutr"}],"container-title":["Obesity"],"original-title":[],"language":"en","link":[{"URL":"https:\/\/api.wiley.com\/onlinelibrary\/tdm\/v1\/articles\/10.1038%2Foby.2006.193","content-type":"unspecified","content-version":"vor","intended-application":"text-mining"},{"URL":"https:\/\/onlinelibrary.wiley.com\/doi\/pdf\/10.1038\/oby.2006.193","content-type":"unspecified","content-version":"vor","intended-application":"similarity-checking"}],"deposited":{"date-parts":[[2023,10,31]],"date-time":"2023-10-31T05:42:12Z","timestamp":1698730932000},"score":1,"resource":{"primary":{"URL":"https:\/\/onlinelibrary.wiley.com\/doi\/10.1038\/oby.2006.193"}},"subtitle":[],"short-title":[],"issued":{"date-parts":[[2006,10]]},"references-count":19,"journal-issue":{"issue":"10","published-print":{"date-parts":[[2006,10]]}},"alternative-id":["10.1038\/oby.2006.193"],"URL":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1038\/oby.2006.193","archive":["Portico"],"relation":{},"ISSN":["1930-7381","1930-739X"],"issn-type":[{"value":"1930-7381","type":"print"},{"value":"1930-739X","type":"electronic"}],"subject":[],"published":{"date-parts":[[2006,10]]},"assertion":[{"value":"2012-09-06","order":2,"name":"published","label":"Published","group":{"name":"publication_history","label":"Publication History"}}]}}
