Abstract excerpt
OBJECTIVES: Recently, several genes have been introduced as potential genetic markers for diabetes mellitus and coronary artery diseases (CAD). METHODS: In this case-control study, the associations of rs2241766 T/G of ADIPOQ, rs9289231 T/G of KALRN, and rs9939609 A/T of FTO polymorphisms with genetic susceptibility to CAD in type 2 diabetic (T2D) patients were investigated. A total of 224 T2D patients undergoing...
