Association of FTO Polymorphisms with Early Age of Obesity in Obese Italian Subjects

Table 4

Association of rs9930506 and rs9939609 SNPs with age, BMI, and waist in age-matched subjects selected from the three BMI classes.

SNP	Genotype Class (n.)	Age (years)	BMI (kg/m^2)	Waist (cm)
rs9930506	AA (224)	50±11	36.1±11.2	116.1±18.8
	GA (364)	48±10	37.6±10.6	124.8±18.6
	GG (215)	46±12	38.3±9.5	125.5±15.1
	P	<0.010*	<0.022**	<0.005*
rs9939609	TT (224)	50±11	36.1±11.3	116.8±20
	TA (364)	48±11	37.5±10.5	125.1±18.2
	AA (215)	46±12	38.2±9.6	124±14.6
	P	<0.011*	<0.038**	<0.012*

All values are means ± standard deviations. BMI: body mass index; n.: number of subjects. *P values were calculated using a linear regression model including gender, age, and BMI as covariates. **Analysis adjusted for gender and age.
