Experiment summary
This study is a meta-analysis, combining results of body fat percentage genetic associations for up to 100,716 individuals from 43 GWAS (n up to 76,137) and 13 MetaboChip studies (n up to 24,582), predominantly of European ancestry (n up to 89,297), but also of non-European ancestry (n up to 11,419).
