BackgroundType 2 diabetes (T2D) is a multi-organ disease defined by hyperglycemia resulting from different disease mechanisms. Using clinical parameters measured at diagnosis (age, BMI, HbA1c, HOMA2-B, HOMA2-IR and GAD autoantibodies) adult patients with diabetes have been reproducibly clustered into five subtypes, that differed clinically with respect to disease progression and outcomes.1 In this study we use genetic information to investigate if these subtypes have distinct underlying genetic ...
