Insights on pathogenesis of type 2 diabetes from MODY genetics

Weedon, Michael N., Frayling, Timothy M.·2007·Current Diabetes Reports

Abstract

Maturity-onset diabetes of the young (MODY) is a type of non-insulin-dependent diabetes mellitus caused by rare autosomal-dominant mutations. MODY genes play key biochemical roles in the pancreatic beta cell; therefore, common variants of MODY genes are excellent candidate genes for type 2 diabetes. We review recent studies that suggest that common MODY gene variation contributes modestly to the heritability of type 2 diabetes.

Recomputing p-values needs the paper’s full text.

Claims the paper makes

This paper’s full text isn’t openly available, so its claims and self-check weren’t run. The registry and citation checks still apply.

Claims other papers make about this one

Each is checked against this paper’s own text: does it say what the citing paper says it does?

  • Numerous chronic conditions have familial analogs caused by rare variants, including atherosclerosis through hypercholesterolemia, MODY, and BRCA1/BRCA2 breast cancer susceptibility.

    “well-known examples include rare variants promoting atherosclerosis through hypercholesterolemia39, the lesions responsible for Maturity Onset Diabetes of the Young (MODY)40, and the BRCA1 and BRCA2 breast cancer susceptibility mutations41.”

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
