Abstract excerpt

A recent genome-wide association study showed that the rs9939609 polymorphism in the fat mass and obesity-associated (FTO) gene was associated with body mass index (BMI)/obesity in Europeans. Subsequently, several studies have investigated the association between FTO polymorphism and cancer risk. However, the results have been inconsistent. In this study, a meta-analysis was performed to clarify the association...
