Higher childhood body mass linked to adult heart-artery plaque

Genetic analysis linked higher childhood body mass index to adult heart-artery plaque and calcium buildup, with association estimates of 0.326 and 0.114, respectively.Genetic analysis linked higher childhood body mass index to adult heart-artery plaque and calcium buildup, with association estimates of 0.326 and 0.114, respectively.

A coronary artery narrowed by plaque and calcium sits beside a clearer artery, with broader and slimmer groups of children above them.
