  • ANOVA = analysis of variance; BMI = body mass index; NED = non-eating-disordered.

  • * Gene functions and/or associated phenotypes are obtained using the National Center for Biotechnology Information gene database. Empty cells indicate genes on which clear functions are not listed. (See Appendix 1, Table S2, available at jpn.ca/170242, for full details of effect sizes and significance levels).

  • p < 0.05 on a probe-wise comparison after adjustment for age and smoking. Significance level is otherwise p < 0.01 when the same covariates are applied.
