Vitamin D receptor gene polymorphisms as a risk factor for obesity in Saudi men

8 Oct 2017

Abstract excerpt

BACKGROUND: The prevalence of obesity and vitamin D deficiency in Saudi Arabia has increased recently. Decreased physical activity might play a role in obesity. Previous studies showed an association between low vitamin D level and its receptor polymorphism with obesity development. OBJECTIVE: To determine association of low vitamin D level and its receptor polymorphism with obesity in Saudi men. METHODS: ). The...
