Abstract
CI 1.16–1.37; p=5×10 −8 ], this association was shown to be entirely mediated by the effect of FTO on obesity [6]. The FTO polymorphism was associated with an increased BMI of ∼0.2 kg/m 2 per allele in children aged 7 years (p=3×10 −5 ) up to an increase of ∼0.4 kg/m 2 at age 11 years [6]. The
