Gene-Based Elevated Triglycerides and Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus Risk in the Women’s Genome Health Study
26 Dec 2018
Abstract excerpt
Objective— Higher triglyceride (TG) is a risk factor for incident type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM), but paradoxically, genetic susceptibility for higher TG has been associated with lower T2DM risk. There is also evidence that the genetic association may be modified by baseline TG. Whether such associations can be replicated and the interaction is selective for certain TG-rich lipoprotein particles remains to be...
