We further showed that the effect sizes of the associations between macronutrient intake and plasma FGF21 were somewhat attenuated but still highly significant when restricting to individuals with obesity (BMI ≥30) ( Supplementary table 3 ) and when restricting to individuals that had fasted for at least 6 h before given their blood sample ( Supplementary table 4 ).
