Association analysis of FTO gene polymorphisms and obesity risk among Egyptian children and adolescents

4 Jul 2017

Abstract excerpt

Obesity is a common disorder that has a significant impact on human health as it may lead to many serious diseases and sometimes morbidity. Previous genome-wide association studies (GWAS) confirmed that there is a relationship between some variants in the first intron of the fat mass and obesity associated (FTO) gene and obesity in adults and children in different ethnic groups. In our study, the association of...
