Obesity is a major risk factor for Type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM), with substantial genetic determinants. The fat mass and obesity–associated (FTO) gene rs9939609 polymorphism has been consistently associated with obesity risk across diverse populations. This case–control study is aimed at investigating FTO rs9939609 and its associations with obesity risk and glycemic parameters in a Syrian population for the first time.
