Abstract Background Hispanic/Latino (HL) populations bear a disproportionately high
burden of type 2 diabetes (T2D). The ability to predict T2D genetic risk using polygenic risk …

Abstract Background Type 2 diabetes (T2D) is a worldwide scourge caused by both genetic
and environmental risk factors that disproportionately afflicts communities of color …

The prevalence of type 2 diabetes (T2D) is greater in populations of African descent
compared to European-descent populations. Genetic risk factors may underlie the disparity …

Genomic discovery and characterization of risk loci for type 2 diabetes (T2D) have been
conducted primarily in individuals of European ancestry. We conducted a multiethnic …

Common genetic risk variants for type 2 diabetes (T2D) have primarily been identified in
populations of European and Asian ancestry. We tested whether the direction of association …

Abstract Type 2 diabetes (T2D) is up to twice as prevalent among African Americans as
Caucasians. Recent genome-wide association studies (GWAS) have identified multiple …

Abstract Purpose of Review Type 2 diabetes (T2D) is a multifactorial, heritable syndrome
characterized by dysregulated glucose homeostasis that results from impaired insulin …

Type 2 diabetes (T2D) is more prevalent in African Americans than in Europeans. However,
little is known about the genetic risk in African Americans despite the recent identification of …

A substantial proportion of the adult United States population with type 2 diabetes (T2D) are
undiagnosed, calling into question the comprehensiveness of current screening practices …

Abstract Type 2 diabetes (T2D) is a global health problem showing substantial ethnic
