The Genetic Basis of Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus: Impaired Insulin Secretion versus Impaired Insulin Sensitivity
Abstract
Despite the fact that it is the prevalent view that insulin resistance is the main genetic factor predisposing to development of type 2 diabetes, review of several lines of evidence in the literature indicates a lack of overwhelming support for this concept. In fact, the literature better supports the case of impaired insulin secretion being the initial and main genetic factor predisposing to type 2 diabetes, especially 1) the studies in people at high risk to subsequently develop type 2 diabetes (discordant monozygotic twins and women with previous gestational diabetes), 2) the studies demonstrating compete alleviation of insulin resistance with weight loss, and 3) the studies finding that people with type 2 diabetes or IGT can have impaired insulin secretion and no insulin resistance compared with well matched NGT subjects. The fact that insulin resistance may be largely an acquired problem in no way lessens its importance in the pathogenesis of type 2 diabetes. Life style changes (exercise, weight reduction) and pharmacological agents (e.g., biguanides and thiazolidendiones) that reduce insulin resistance or increase insulin sensitivity clearly have major beneficial effects (122, 144-146, 153-155).

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.
