▶Genetic association analyses of non-synonymous single nucleotide polymorphisms in diabetic nephropathyAssociationN=1,711Savage DA et al.(2008)· Diabetologia
This case-control study investigated 1,111 non-synonymous SNPs in 1,711 type 1 diabetic individuals (894 cases with diabetic nephropathy, 817 controls) to assess genetic susceptibility to diabetic nephropathy. After correction for multiple testing, no SNPs demonstrated significant associations with diabetic nephropathy, including in subgroup analyses by ESRD status or diabetes duration.
