Abstract excerpt

BACKGROUND: A large number of potential obesity loci have been reported. At least 18 genes have been replicated in a minimum of 5 studies on obesity-related phenotypes. Fourteen additional genes have been associated with obesity in Asians. OBJECTIVES: Our objectives were to examine how many common variants of these candidate genes are associated with severe obesity in Han Chinese and how they are combined to...
