Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND: This study explored whether the prospective associations between muscle strength and incident type 2 diabetes (T2D) differ by varying levels of genetic susceptibility to T2D. METHODS: This study included 141,848 white British individuals from the UK Biobank. Muscle strength was expressed as the relative value of grip strength (measured by a hand dynamometer) divided by fat-free mass (measured via...
