Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND: Selenium and single-nucleotide-polymorphisms in selenoprotein genes have been associated to diabetes. However, the interaction of selenium with genetic variation in diabetes and oxidative stress-related genes has not been evaluated as a potential determinant of diabetes risk. METHODS: We evaluated the cross-sectional and prospective associations of plasma selenium concentrations with type 2 diabetes,...
