Abstract excerpt

OBJECTIVE: This study aimed to examine single-nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) of seven previously reported obesity genes in East Asians and to analyse their associations and synergistic effects on obesity in the Taiwanese population. DESIGN: Cross-sectional study. SETTING: One medical centre in northern Taiwan. PARTICIPANTS: A total of 323 non-obese and 264 obese participants were recruited. The threshold for...
