Abstract
Association studies have implicated single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs), particularly rs1421085, from the fat mass and obesity-associated (FTO) gene with body composition phenotypes, obesity, dietary intake and physical activity in European, East Asian and African populations. However, the impact of the rs1421085 variant has not been sufficiently tested in ethnic populations (such as Arabs) with high levels of obesity. Further, there is a...
