CONTEXT: Young-onset obesity is strongly associated with the early development of type 2 diabetes (T2D). Genetic risk scores (GRSs) related to T2D might help predicting the early impairment of glucose homeostasis in obese youths. OBJECTIVE: Our objective was to investigate the contributions of four GRSs (associated with: T2D [GRS-T2D], beta-cell function [GRS-β], insulin resistance [GRS-IR], and body mass index)...
