Abstract excerpt

OBJECTIVE AND DESIGN: We investigated the impact of the fatness-related FTO rs9939609 A-allele on cross-sectional and longitudinal measures of body mass index (BMI), height and lean body mass (LBM) in a unique cohort representing a broad range of BMI. SUBJECTS AND MEASUREMENTS: A random sample of all men attending the Danish draft boards during 1943-1977 plus all men with a BMI>or=31.0 kg/m(2) (assuring...
