The correlation between transcription factor 7-like 2 gene polymorphisms and susceptibility of gestational diabetes mellitus in the population of central China: A case-control study.

Abstract excerpt

Objective: To investigate the correlation between transcription factor 7-like 2 (TCF7L2) gene polymorphisms and gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM) risk in the central Chinese population. Methods: This case-control study examined the association of seven TCF7L2 gene single-nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) (rs11196218, rs4506565, rs7895340, rs7901695, rs11196205, , and ) with GDM risk in the...
