0.060 GeneticVariation BEFREE There were no significant group differences in COMT Val158Met alleles and genotype frequencies between patients and controls, for all EDs pooled together [range of odds ratios (ORs): 0.96-1.04, p-values: 0.46-0.97, I<sup>2</sup>  = 0%] and when analysing separately patients with AN (ORs: 0.94-1.04, p-values: 0.31-0.61, I<sup>2</sup>  = 0%) or BN (ORs: 0.80-1.09, p-values: 0.28-0.64, I<sup>2</sup>  = 0-44%). 29057600

dbSNP: rs4680
rs4680
0.060 GeneticVariation BEFREE The present study explores the effect of a functional polymorphism (Val158Met) in the catechol-O-methyltransferase (COMT) gene on the set-shifting abilities and prefrontal functional connectivity of patients with anorexia nervosa. 23046831

2013

dbSNP: rs4680
rs4680
0.060 GeneticVariation BEFREE Meta-analytically combined evidence from the present genotypings and the literature search shows that the effect sizes are homogeneous across studies and that rs4680 is not associated with AN. 22366815

2012

dbSNP: rs4680
rs4680
0.060 GeneticVariation BEFREE Anorexia nervosa and the Val158Met polymorphism of the COMT gene: meta-analysis and new data. 22366815

2012

dbSNP: rs4680
rs4680
0.060 GeneticVariation BEFREE Association was found between AN-R and several SNPs in the COMT-ARVCF region including the 158Val/Met polymorphism. 16118784

2005

dbSNP: rs4680
rs4680
0.060 GeneticVariation BEFREE Because we were not able to support the primary hypothesis that Val158Met is a risk factor for AN, we did not perform secondary analysis of minimum body mass index (mBMI), age at onset or illness subtype (restricting or binge purging anorexia). 14681918

2004

dbSNP: rs4680
rs4680
0.060 GeneticVariation BEFREE Catechol-O-methyltransferase (COMT) is a candidate gene for mediating susceptibility to AN since it is involved in the dopamine catabolism and because its functional polymorphism (Val/Met 158) determines high (H) and low (L) enzymatic activity alleles. 11317231

2001

dbSNP: rs4633
rs4633
0.010 GeneticVariation BEFREE We concluded that rs1800497 and rs4633 play important roles in the AN susceptibility with respect to the Chinese Han population. 26808641

2016

dbSNP: rs4818
rs4818
0.010 GeneticVariation BEFREE The aim of this work is to explore the roles of DRD2 (rs1800497) and COMT (rs4680, rs4633, rs4818) gene polymorphisms in the susceptibility of AN within the Chinese Han population. 26808641
