ABSTRACT: This systematic review aims to evaluate the association of adiponectin (ADIPOQ) and leptin (LEP) gene variants with energy intake. Cross-sectional, cohort, and case⁻control studies that reported an association of leptin and/or adiponectin gene variants with energy intake were included in this review.
