title: Association of LEPR Gln223Arg polymorphism with T2DM: A meta-analysis.
abstract: A meta-analysis was conducted to evaluate the association of LEPR Gln223Arg polymorphism with type 2diabetes (T2DM). Sixteen individual studies with 7827 subjects were included into the meta-analysis. Current studies suggest that LEPR Gln223Arg polymorphism may not affect the susceptibility with type 2diabetes (T2DM).
