Abstract excerpt

AIMS/HYPOTHESIS: Dyslipidaemia, a common feature of type 2 diabetes, is characterised by an increase in atherogenic particles, quantifiable through apolipoprotein B (ApoB) levels. Genetic studies of lipid levels have focused on Europeans; a study in South Asians could identify novel genes. METHODS: We tested 31,739 single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) from ∼ 2,000 genes in 2,573 South Asians from the...
