Abstract excerpt

BACKGROUND: The ferroportin Q248H mutation is relatively common in sub-Saharan Africa. No previous study examined its relationship with atypical diabetes mellitus (DM) in this area. OBJECTIVE: To determine the potential interactions between ferroportin Q248H mutation, hyperferritinemia and DM in South Kivu (RDC). METHODOLOGY: Presence of ferroportin Q248H mutation and iron status were investigated in diabetic...
