Serum resistin is causally related to mortality risk in patients with type 2 diabetes: preliminary evidences from genetic data

Abstract Resistin has been firmly associated with all-cause mortality. We investigated, whether, in patients with type 2 diabetes (T2D), this association is sustained by a cause-effect relationship. A genotype risk score (GRS), created by summing the number of resistin increasing alleles of two geno...
