Abstract excerpt

OBJECTIVE: Variation in the tumour necrosis factor gene, (TNF) has been associated with insulin resistance traits. We questioned whether the TNF-308G/A polymorphism is associated with birthweight and insulin resistance in children born small for gestational age (SGA), a patient population known to be at risk for insulin resistance. DESIGN: A cross-sectional, hospital-based study assessing insulin sensitivity in...
