We also did not observe any significant association between the A-allele of the second VEGF-associated SNP rs10738760 (reported to increase circulating VEGF levels [12]) and increased T2D risk (French study: OR = 0.98 [0.91;1.06]; P = 0.63; Danish study: OR = 1.04 [0.96;1.12]; P = 0.40; Table 1). This evidence concerns the gene VEGFA and type 2 diabetes mellitus.
