Abstract excerpt

BACKGROUND: Multiple studies have provided compelling evidence that the FTO gene variants are associated with obesity measures. The objective of the study was to investigate whether FTO variants are associated with a broad range of obesity related anthropometric traits in an island population. METHODOLOGY/PRINCIPAL FINDINGS: We examined genetic association between 29 FTO SNPs and a comprehensive set of...
