An association between the more severe small-for-gestational age phenotype and risk alleles of FTO (odds ratio for SGA TA versus TT: 1.54; 95% CI: 1.07, 2.22], as well as for other risk alleles (PTER and KCNJ11, two high-risk alleles associated with obesity and diabetes in adults), has been found by Morgan et al. [20]. The gene discussed is KCNJ11; the disease is diabetes mellitus.
