Abstract excerpt

BACKGROUND: Ethnically endogamous populations can shed light on the genetics of type 2 diabetes. Such studies are lacking in India. We conducted this study to determine the genetic and environmental contributions of anthropometric traits to type 2 diabetes risk in the Sindhi families in central India. METHODS: We conducted a family study in Indian Sindhi families with at least one case of type 2 diabetes....
