Systematic review reveals significant links between FTO genetic variants and obesity risk, highlighting gene interactions.

Six specific fto genetic polymorphisms demonstrated a significant association with obesity risk.
The allelic model showed rs9939609 at OR=1.38 as the most significant variant linked to obesity.
This meta-analysis involved 16 studies with a total of 4,381 obese individuals and 5,652 controls.
Findings support the role of genetic factors in obesity, emphasizing the need for further research on gene interactions.

Nor et al. (2025) studied this question.
