FTO Genetic Variation and Association With Obesity in West Africans and African Americans
OBJECTIVE: The FTO gene is one of the most consistently replicated loci for obesity. However, data from populations of African ancestry are limited. We evaluated genetic variation in the FTO gene and investigated associations with obesity in West Africans and African Americans. RESEARCH DESIGN AND M...
