Abstract excerpt
Recent genome-wide association studies identified genetic variants that confer susceptibility to type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM). However, few longitudinal genome-wide association studies of this metabolic disorder have been reported to date. Therefore, we performed a longitudinal exome-wide association study of T2DM, using 24,579 single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) and repeated measurements from 6022 Japanese...
