Abstract excerpt
Impaired glucose tolerance is a major risk factor for type 2 diabetes (T2D) and several cardiometabolic disorders. To identify genetic loci underlying fasting glucose levels, we conducted an analysis of 9,232 individuals of European ancestry who at enrollment were either nondiabetic or had untreated type 2 diabetes. Multivariable linear mixed models were used to test for associations between fasting glucose and...
