Variation of anthropometric parameters (BMI, WC, WHR, and WHtR) according to MMP-1 (-519A/G), MMP-1 (-1607 1G/2G), MMP-3 Lys45Glu (A/G), MMP-7 (-181A/G), and MMP-12 (-82A/G) polymorphisms in study subjects. Data are expressed as mean ± SD. Associations were analyzed using a dominant model. value remained significant after the Bonferroni correction. BMI: body mass index; WC: waist circumference; WHtR: waist-to-height ratio.
