Association of FTO rs9939609 Polymorphism With Obesity and Elevated Glycemic Parameters in a Syrian Population: A Case-Control Study.

Journal of diabetes research - 1 Jan 2026

Wehbi Lana, Haddad Shaden

Abstract excerpt

BACKGROUND: Obesity is a major risk factor for Type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM), with substantial genetic determinants. The fat mass and obesity-associated (FTO) gene rs9939609 polymorphism has been consistently associated with obesity risk across diverse populations. This case-control study is aimed at investigating FTO rs9939609 and its associations with obesity risk and glycemic parameters in a Syrian...
