Abstract excerpt

PURPOSE: There are 2 common alleles for Hp (Hp-1 and Hp-2) and 3 common Hp genotypes: Hp1-1, Hp2-1, and Hp2-2. The haptoglobin genotype may play a dual role in morbidities of diabetes: Hp1-1, protective and Hp2-2, provocative. This study investigated the possible association of haptoglobin genotypes with onset of retinopathy in Type 2 diabetes (DM2). METHODS: The sample included 98 consecutive adults with DM2...
