T allele frequency in groups II, III, and IV was significantly higherthan that in group I. Logistic regression analysis of the risk factors for T2D with albuminuria showed that the CT +TT genotype (odds ratio = 1.710, 95% confidence interval: 1.172-2.493) was a risk factor.CONCLUSION CT + TT genotype is a risk factor for T2D with albuminuria. In the future, we can assess the risk of individualscarrying susceptible genes to delay the onset of T2D.展开更多
