Abstract excerpt
Genetic factors are known to play a significant role in the susceptibility of diabetic patients to severe complications such as diabetic nephropathy (DN). This study aimed to evaluate the association between polymorphism of ectonucleotide pyrophosphatase/phosphodiesterase 1 (ENPP1) variants (rs997509, K121Q, rs1799774, and rs7754561) and DN in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM). A total number of 492...
