Abstract excerpt
The genes encoding two cyclin-dependent kinases-inhibitor-2A/B (CDKN2A/B) and 5 regulatory subunit-associated protein-like 1 (CDKAL1) have been investigated extensively in associations with type 2 diabetes; the results, however, are often irreproducible. We therefore sought to evaluate these associations by performing a meta-analysis on five widely-evaluated variants from the two genes. There were 38 studies...
