Meta-analysis of the association between SNPs near MC4R, GNPDA2 and risk for type 2 diabetes risk in Chinese populations.

Abbreviations: SNP, single nucleotide polymorphism; T2D, type 2 diabetes; OR, odds ratio; CI, confidence interval; BMI, body mass index.The study combined data of both rs12970134 and its proxy rs17782313 which are known in high linkage disequilibrium (r2 = 0.850 in a combined population of Chinese Han and Japanese, as reported in the 1000 Genome Project).a.Without adjustment for BMI;b.with adjustment for BMI;c.sample size for MC4R result with adjustment for BMI is 14 871/12 665, since data from Huang et al [12] was not provided.P values
