Abstract excerpt
OBJECTIVE: More than 50 loci outside the human leukocyte antigen (HLA) region have been confirmed to affect type 1 diabetes (T1D) risk but their effect on β-cell autoimmunity is poorly defined. We analyzed the association of 35 single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) markers previously associated with T1D with the presence of disease-predictive autoantibodies at the time of T1D diagnosis. SUBJECTS AND METHODS: The...
