Type 2 diabetes and cardiovascular conditions prediction in individuals with metabolic syndrome-associated lipoprotein lipase gene (LPL) single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs).

Abstract excerpt

OBJECTIVE: Metabolic syndrome (MetS) is predictive of increased risk of type 2 diabetes (T2D) and cardiovascular conditions (CVC). Lipoprotein lipase gene (LPL) single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) may be of importance to the eventual diagnosis of T2D and CVC. This study aimed to predict the diagnosis of T2D and CVC amongst individuals with LPL SNPs rs268, rs11542065, rs116403115, rs118204057, rs118204061,...
