The CODAT wins project : the current status and recent findings of collaborative project of development of anthropometrical measures in twins
(2019-07-31)
The COllaborative project of Development of Anthropometrical measures in Twins (CODATwins) project is a large international collaborative effort to analyze individual-level phenotype data from twins in multiple cohorts ...
Birth size and gestational age in opposite-sex twins as compared to same-sex twins : an individualbased pooled analysis of 21 cohorts
(Nature research, 2018-04-19)
It is well established that boys are born heavier and longer than girls, but it remains unclear whether birth size in twins is affected by the sex of their co-twin. We conducted an individual-based pooled analysis of 21 ...
Twin’s birth-order differences in height and body mass index from birth to old age: a pooled study of 26 twin cohorts participated in the CODATwins project
(Australian Academic Press, 2016-04)
We analyzed birth order differences in means and variances of height and body mass index (BMI) in monozygotic (MZ) and dizygotic (DZ) twins from infancy to old age. The data were derived from the international CODATwins ...
Genetic and environmental influences on height from infancy to early adulthood : an individualbased pooled analysis of 45 twin cohorts
(Nature Publishing Group, 2016-06-23)
Height variation is known to be determined by both genetic and environmental factors, but a systematic description of how their influences differ by sex, age and global regions is lacking. We conducted an individual-based ...
