Abstract excerpt

African Americans are at increased risk of type 2 diabetes and many diabetes complications. We have carried out a genome-wide scan for African American type 2 diabetes using 638 affected sibling pairs (ASPs) from 247 families ascertained through impaired renal function to identify type 2 diabetes loci in this high-risk population. Of the 638 ASPs, 210 were concordant for diabetes with impaired renal function. A...
