Abstract

Objective

The aim of this study was to explore the association of dopamine receptor D2 (DRD2) polymorphism and alleviation of obesity in children and adolescents after 8-year follow-up.

Methods

This retrospective cohort study included obese children and adolescents with a follow-up period of 8 years. Baseline clinical characteristics and DRD2 polymorphisms (including rs1076562, rs2075654, and rs4586205) were extracted from medical records. A follow-up visit was performed in May 2017 to collect related data including height, weight, diet compliance, and exercise compliance.

Results

One hundred and nine obese children and adolescents were included in the current study. Among three DRD2 single nucleotide polymorphisms, only rs2075654 had a statistically significant association with alleviation of obesity, as the alleviation rate for minor allele carriers (68.6% for TC+TT) was higher compared to the major allele homozygote (43.3% for CC). After adjusting for all related factors, the hazard ratio of rs2075654 minor allele carriers for the alleviation of obesity was 3.34 (95% confidence interval (CI): 1.30‒8.58).

Conclusions

The rs2075654 polymorphism of DRD2 is related to long-term obesity alleviation in obese Chinese children and adolescents.

中文概要

目的

在经过8 年随访的中国肥胖儿童青少年中,评价多巴胺受体D2(DRD2)基因多态性和肥胖缓解的相关性。

创新点

探索肥胖儿童青少年的基因多态性与长期体重变化的相关性,期望能够指导肥胖儿童青少年的临床诊疗。

方法

该研究纳入了我院随访8 年的108名肥胖儿童及青少年。基线的临床资料和 DRD2 基因多态性(包括rs1076562、rs2075654 和rs4586205)相关数据从原始病历及检验结果中提取。于2017 年5 月份 进行电话随访,采集相关数据,包括身高、体重、饮食和运动干预依从性。

结论

DRD2 基因rs2075654 位点多态性与肥胖儿童青少年的长期体重变化有相关性。
