Study Objective • To test genetic associations with weight loss and weight regain in the Diabetes Prevention Program Delahanty L et al. Diabetes Care 2012;35:363-366
Study Design • 16 obesity-predisposing SNPs tested for association with short-term (baseline to 6 months) and long-term (baseline to 2 years) weight loss and weight regain (6 months to study end). Delahanty L et al. Diabetes Care 2012;35:363-366
Conclusion • Genetic information may help identify people who require additional support to maintain reduced weight after clinical intervention Delahanty L et al. Diabetes Care 2012;35:363-366
