Overall and central obesity with insulin sensitivity and secretion in a Han Chinese population: a Mendelian randomization analysis.

TL;DR: New causal evidence is provided that the impact of obesity on insulin secretion and sensitivity could vary between overall obesity and central obesity in Han Chinese populations and also identify the extent to which overall obesity affects compensatory insulin gland secretion and central Obesity inversely links to insulin sensitivity.
Journal ArticleDOI

A common variant of NOS1AP is associated with QT interval duration in a Chinese population with Type 2 diabetes

TL;DR: In this paper, the association of polymorphisms of the nitric oxide synthase 1 adaptor protein (NOS1AP) gene with QT interval in Chinese subjects with or without Type 2 diabetes was investigated.
Journal ArticleDOI

Retinal microvascular abnormalities are associated with early carotid atherosclerotic lesions in hospitalized Chinese patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus.

TL;DR: It is suggested that changes in retinal microvasculature may play a role in the pathogenesis of Atherosclerosis and may be used as an indicator of early atherosclerosis in patients with type 2 diabetes.
Journal ArticleDOI

Pyrosequencing Is an Accurate and Reliable Method for the Analysis of Heteroplasmy of the A3243G Mutation in Patients with Mitochondrial Diabetes

TL;DR: A quantitative method based on pyrosequencing was developed to analyze the heteroplasmy of the A3243G mutation in leukocyte DNA obtained from 83 persons of 15 unrelated pedigrees with mitochondrial diabetes, and an inverse correlation was found between the level of heteroplAsmy and the age of the onset in patients.
Journal ArticleDOI

Serum uric acid levels are associated with polymorphisms in the SLC2A9 , SF1 , and GCKR genes in a Chinese population

TL;DR: The SLC2A9 rs11722228, SF1 rs606458 and GCKR rs780094 variants modulate uric acid concentrations in Chinese males, while SF1rs606 458 and SLC1 rs3775948 are associated with the uric Acid concentrations in both Chinese males and females.
