TABLE 3.

Case-control studies of obesity for six MTNR1B variants in Danish (up to n = 6,828) and French (n = 3,773) individuals

Data are presented as wild-type/heterozygous/homozygous unless otherwise indicated. ORs and P values were calculated assuming a dominant (L60R, V124I, R138C, R231H, and K243R) or additive (G24E) genetic model adjusted for age and sex. Nationality has been applied as an adjusting factor in the combined analyses.

*Additional obese cases (n = 1,991) were genotyped for G24E, L60R, and V124I. Normal weight was defined as BMI < 25 kg/m2. Obesity was defined as BMI ≥ 30 kg/m2.
