Table 3 Comparison of Genotypic and Allelic Distribution of Pro12Ala polymorphism in diabetic versus non diabetic subjects. Case/Control studies show the association of the Pro12Ala polymorphism with T2D in the French Caucasian population (p = 0.04). The stratification of diabetic subjects on the obesity status shows that the association previously found is rather due to obese T2D subgroup (p = 0.03) than non obese T2D subgroup (p = 0.12).
