Authors: Godwill Azeh Engwa, Friday Nweke Nwalo, Chosen E. Obi, Christie Onyia, Opeolu Oyejide Ojo Wilfred Fon Mbacham, Benjamin Ewa Ubi

Though the rs5219 E23K variant of the KCNJ11 gene is commonly known to be associated with Type 2 diabetes (T2D) in Caucasian and Asian populations, little or none of such findings have been revealed in Nigeria. Hence, this study was aimed to assess the relationship between E23K polymorphic variant of the KCNJ11 gene and T2D in.. Read More»
