Abstract excerpt
To systematically evaluate genetic susceptibility to type 2 diabetes (T2D) in "candidate" regions on chromosomes 1q, 3q and 12q, we examined disease association by using a total of 2,083 SNPs in two-step screening; a screening panel comprised 473 cases and 285 controls and an extended (or combined) panel involved 658 cases and 474 controls. For the total interval screened (40.9 Mb), suggestive evidence of...
