Type 2 diabetes (T2D) accounts for over 90% of all diabetes cases and results from the interaction of genetic and environmental factors. However, the association between apolipoprotein E (APOE) gene polymorphisms and T2D risk shows considerable variation across different populations. This meta-analysis aims to clarify the association between APOE genotypes and alleles (E2E2, E2E3, E2E4, E3E4, E4E4) and the risk...
