Abstract excerpt

BACKGROUND/OBJECTIVES: Multiple studies have revealed an interaction between a variant in the FTO gene and self-reported physical activity on body mass index (BMI). Physical inactivity, such as time spent sitting (TSS) has recently gained attention as an important risk factor for obesity and related diseases. It is possible that FTO interacts with TSS to affect BMI, and/or that FTO's putative effect on BMI is...
