Abstract excerpt
Association of peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor gamma (PPARγ) Pro12Ala gene polymorphism with type 2 diabetic nephropathy (T2DN) risk in Caucasians is still not clear. This investigation was conducted to assess if there was an association between the PPARγ Pro12Ala gene polymorphism and T2DN risk in Caucasians using meta-analysis. The relevant literatures were identified from PubMed, and Cochrane...
