Table 3.

Mean (standard deviation) of genetic ancestry percentages for nutritional status

BMI p <85.0th
n = 337
BMI p ≥85.0th
n = 235
p value
European 66.2 (5.6) 66.7 (6.3) 0.327
Amerindian 19.6 (4.3) 19.3 (4.2) 0.439
African 14.4 (4.7) 14.1 (5.4) 0.552

Mean and standard deviation values are obtained from inferred individual genetic ancestry components (measured in percentage) for the subset of the samples. Student t test
