Associations of the individual obesity-susceptibility SNPs and the GPS1 with adiposity-related traits2 in adolescence of Young-HUNT13.

1The genetic predisposition score (GPS) is the sum of effect alleles from each of the nine individual SNPs.2Age and sex specific z-scores of BMI and waist circumference in adolescence.3Number of participants: for individual SNPs = 1643 and for GPS = 1634 (those missing more than 3 SNPs excluded).The linear regression models were adjusted for pubertal maturity regarding BMI and additionally also for height regarding WC, assuming an additive effect. Pregnant participants were excluded.Chrom: chromosome.Comparable effect sizes in the literature:aden Hoed et al. [21];bZhao et al.cWiller et al. [17].
