Abstract excerpt

OBJECTIVE: The A-allele of the fat mass and obesity-associated (FTO) gene variant rs9939609 has been associated with increased body weight, whereas no effect on weight loss during weight reduction programs has been observed. We questioned whether the AA-genotype interferes with weight stabilization after weight loss. DESIGN: We conducted a monocentric, longitudinal study involving obese individuals. The FTO gene...
