Experiment summary
This study analyzed genetic associations for persistent healthy thinness (STILTS cohort) compared to severe early-onset obesity (SCOOP cohort). Results are available for the obese vs. thin phenotype and also for SCOOP and STILTS each compared to a control population-based cohort (UKHLS).
