A genome-wide association study of IVGTT-based measures of first phase insulin secretion refines the underlying physiology of Type 2 Diabetes variants.

<p>Understanding the physiological mechanisms by which common variants predispose to type 2 diabetes requires large studies with detailed measures of insulin secretion and sensitivity. Here we performed the largest genome-wide association study of first phase insulin secretion, as measured by...
