(P = 7.0 x 10 –4 ) and BMI (P = 0.0024) in the Chinese population. The odds ratio for obesity
was 2.60 (95% CI 1.24–5.46) (P = 0.011) for the AA genotype and 1.32 (1.05–1.66) (P = ... Cited by 21 - Related articles - All 4 versions

SW Cha, SM Choi, KS Kim, BL Park, JR Kim, JY Kim, … - 2008 - nature.com It has been newly reported in recent studies that single-nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) in
the first intron of the FTO gene have been associated with BMI in whites. To determine whether
the gene is associated with BMI in Asians also, we performed a replication study of the ... Cited by 13 - Related articles - All 4 versions

obesity phenotype in many Caucasian populations. This association with the obesity phenotype
is not clear in the Japanese. To investigate the relationship between the FTO gene and ... Cited by 29 - Related articles - BL Direct - All 7 versions
