Genome-wide SNP and CNV analysis identifies common and low-frequency variants associated with severe early-onset obesity

We performed SNP and copy number variation (CNV) association analyses in 1,509 children with obesity at the extreme tail (>3 s.d. from the mean) of the BMI distribution and 5,380 controls. The control samples were made available from the EGA with accession numbers EGAD00000000021 and EGAD00000000023.
