Abstract excerpt
Observational studies have indicated a potential influence of childhood phenotypes on the later development of type 2 diabetes (T2D). However, the underlying biological mechanisms remain unclear. In this study, we conducted a comprehensive genome-wide analysis to investigate the shared genetic architecture and genetic loci between nine childhood phenotypes (N = 4202-620,26) and later-life T2D (N = 80,154) using...
